Abstract
Coarse-grained, deformed albite occurs in veins within a blueschist from the Cazadero region, California. In some grains, deformation and recrystallization are concentrated in narrow shear zones less than 50 μm wide. We have examined the substructural progression across these zones by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), in an attempt to determine the details of the dynamic recrystallization mechanism. The misorientation across subgrain and recrystallized grain boundaries has been determined by analysis of electron diffraction patterns.
