Overprint of earlier deformation structures by the SFZ. a Synthetic sketch showing the reactivation of a pre-existent S1/2 fabric on an outcrop scale (647034/122940). b F2 folds overprinted by the growth of garnet at peak metamorphic conditions, micaschist with garnet, Houillère Zone, footwall (647034/122940). c Retrograde top-to-SW shearing with asymmetric pressure shadows developed on stretched garnet porphyroclasts, micaschist with garnet, Houillère Zone, footwall (647034/122940)
