From: Three generations of monazite in Austroalpine basement rocks to the south of the Tauern Window: evidence for Variscan, Permian and Eo-Alpine metamorphic events

Fig. 5

Backscattered electron images showing monazite from samples 520, 527 and Alk 8. Polyphase monazite (Variscan core, Permian rim) enclosed in the outer domain of garnet (a, b). Polyphase matrix monazite with a Variscan core (labeled as analysis 1), Variscan rim (analysis 2) and an outermost Permian rim (analysis 3) (c). Polyphase matrix monazite with a Variscan core and Permian rim (d, e). Alpine monazite enclosed in garnet. (h) Alpine monazite in the staurolite-kyanite bearing matrix (f, g). Chemistry and ages of monazite are listed in Tables 1, 2, 3, and garnet compositions are shown in Figs. 10 and 11
