Short summary
The purpose of this paper is to present new perspectives on the pressure estimate of submicrometric white mica using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy performed by a transmission electron microscope. This technique aims to explore the mineral chemistry of single grains whose dimensions do not allow for analysis by microprobe. The validation of this procedure opens a wide range of applications hitherto untested due to instrumental incompatibility with mineral phases smaller than 5 µm.
