Short summary
This paper reports on metamorphic titanate + zircon pseudomorphs after igneous zirconolite based on the textural relationships in samples from a key locality of a Mesoproterozoic syenodiorite, in which the rock preserves different states of deformation and metamorphic recrystallisation. The metamorphic reaction to form titanite + zircon intergrowths required the zirconolite breakdown and the release of silica and calcium from the consumption of igneous pyroxene and feldspars.
