This work presents the results on deformation-enhanced melt segregation and extraction in a phonolitic magma emplaced at shallow depth in the Velay volcanic province (France). We provide evidence of the segregation and subsequent extraction of the residual melt during magma ascent and final emplacement. We highlight that melt segregation started by compaction as a loose packing of microlites emerged and continued with melt filling of a shear band network.
