Short summary
The acid igneous rocks of eastern Croatia related to the Late Cretaceous closure of the Neotethys Ocean contain zircon as a main accessory mineral. Among others, zircon has inclusions of anatase, hematite and melt (nanogranitoids) with kokchetavite and kumdykolite. The first finding here of kokchetavite and kumdykolite in a magmatic nanogranitoid proves that these are not exclusively ultra-high pressure phases. The detected inclusions indicate rapid uplift and cooling of the oxidised magma.
