Metamorphic petrology, metamorphic textures, and nomenclature, familiarize with the interpretation of metamorphic phase diagrams, and discuss metamorphism of different rock types and in different geodynamic settings. Fundamental principles of geothermobarometry, reactive fluid flow, and hydrothermal mineral deposits will be discussed in the final part of the course, Index minerals, Prograde and Retrograde metamorphism, Grade of Metamorphism and isograde- Metamorphic facies.
