Short summary
The present study of mafic rocks from Jutulsessen, Gjelsvikfjella, extends the presence of high-pressure rocks in the Maud Belt in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. The physical conditions necessary for the development of these rocks were attained during continent–continent collision along the East African–Antarctic Orogen. The new data in this study largely confirm the geodynamic implication outlined by others for the region.
