In the Proterozoïc of granulite facies in S-E Madagascar the urano-thorianite bearing rocks are part of a clinopyroxene-rich calc-magnesian complex (the so-called "pyroxenites"). The rocks are produced by the metamorphic/metasomatic alteration (ca. 500-600 M.y. ?) of limestones and marls. By metasomatism K, Na, Fe and in some cases Ca are lost by the rocks ; Mg and Si are gained. The parageneses exhibited by the surrounding gneisses, leptynites and marbles as well as the Fe-Mg distribution in the pairs cordierite-garnet and cordierite-spinel constrain as follows the conditions for the main phase of regional metamorphism : T = 700-750°C ; PF ⋍ 5 kbar ; CO2 concentrations often high in the fluid phase. Similar temperatures are deduced from t...
