Abstract

This paper aims to ascertain the degree of equilibrium attained with respect to oxygen during metamorphism of non-carbonatic manganiferous sediments and the nature of mobility of oxygen in rocks of adjacent beds by measuring the composition of coexisting phases. Through algebraic analysis of the relevant phase equilibria, a difference of ?17 kcal in μO2 in rocks of adjacent beds is obtained. This confirms the immobile nature of oxygen during metamorphism of manganiferous sediments.
