Electronic Appendix 3: Phase diagrams calculated with the alternative datasets.
EVALUATION OF THE AVAILABLE DATASETS
In the literature, two self-consistent thermodynamic datasets are available for calculation of phase diagrams for
carpholite-bearing assemblages: that of Holland & Powell (1998)(hereafter “HP02”) with recent complements,
and the dataset of Le Bayon et al. (2006) developed from the JUN92.bs update of Berman’s (1988) database. In
the following, either dataset is evaluated in the light of the phase diagrams that were computed for theoretical
FMASH compositions, as in Figure 7.
Dataset HP02
During the past decade, the HP02 dataset has been used by most of the studies investigating HP–LT metapelites,
as well for phase relation systematics in the systems KFMASH and NaKFMASH (Wei and Powell 2003; Wei
and Powell 2004), as for thermobarometric purposes (e.g., Song et al. 2007; Agard et al. 2010; Plunder et al.
2012). Recently, Lanari et al. (2014) introduced a new chlorite solid-solution model, Chl(LWV), that follows
site distribution after Vidal et al. (2001) and accounts for the di/tri-octahedral [VI☐,2VIAl=3VI(Mg,Fe2+)]
substitution that is crucial in LT metamorphic rocks. The Chl(LWV) model especially places the chlorite–
carpholite transition to reasonably high pressure, whereas the original Chl(HP) model (Holland et al. 1998)
predicts Mg-carpholite stability until LP conditions (< 0.3 GPa at 300°C), which contradicts natural and
experimental evidence (e.g. Goffé et al. 1973; Chopin and Schreyer 1983; Vidal et al. 1992). The HP02 dataset
was evaluated using PERPLE_X software package (version 6.6.9; Connolly 2005) and the hp02ver.dat file with
the following solid-solution models: Chl(LWV) for chlorite (Lanari et al. 2014), Carp for carpholite, Ctd(HP)
for chloritoid, Gt(HP) for garnet and St(HP) for staurolite (Holland and Powell 1998). Phase diagrams obtained
for theoretical FMASH quartz vein compositions (as in Fig. 7) are shown in Figure A3-1.
Mg-rich carpholite is stable solely above 0.8 GPa at 300–400°C in agreement with experimental
constraints by Vidal et al. (1992) and Chopin and Schreyer (1983). On the other hand, the predicted stability of
Fe-rich carpholite (XMg ≤ 0.3) is restricted to very high pressures, along very low thermal gradients (< 5°C/km),
long considered to be a “forbidden zone” not realised in the Earth (Schreyer 1988). Such extreme conditions
seem unlikely as Fe-rich carpholite compositions were reported from various low-grade HP units (e.g., Ligurian
Alps, Goffé 1984; Oman, Goffé et al. 1988; Western–Central Anatolia, this study). Using this dataset for
samples containing Fe-rich carpholite shall therefore yield erroneously high pressures. The HP02 dataset implies
strong Mg/Fe partitioning between carpholite and chloritoid: KP(Car/Cld) values, that depend mostly on
temperature, spread between <3 at 550°C (>1.6 GPa) to >25 below 300°C, and thus include the range of values
obtained from natural data (Theye et al. 1992; Azañon and Goffé 1997; this study) although systematic
variations with metamorphic conditions were never evidenced (see Vidal and Theye 1996).
Therefore, although the new Chl(LWV) model allows Mg-rich carpholite to be stable only above
upper–greenschist-facies conditions, and predicted KP(Car/Cld) values generally satisfy natural constraints,
critical issues with the thermodynamic data for Fe-carpholite still prevent calculating reliable P–T phase
diagrams with this database.
Dataset LB06
The second available dataset is that of Le Bayon et al. (2006) (hereafter “LB06”), which consists in the
thermodynamic database JUN92.bs (updated after Berman 1988), complemented with new data calculated for
Mg-carpholite, Mg-chloritoid and Fe-chloritoid. Dataset LB06, compatible with THERIAK–DOMINO, was
developed with the aim to calculate phase diagrams in KFMASH chemical systems, for carpholite-free,
eclogite-facies magnesian metapelites of the Monte Rosa nappe (Western Alps). New standard enthalpies of
formation (fH°), and standard entropies (S°) were calculated by mathematical optimisation using, as
calculation constraints, P–T positions of reactions as bracketed experimentally by Ganguly (1969), Chopin and
Schreyer (1983) and Vidal et al. (1994). fH° and S° of Fe-carpholite and daphnite (ferrous end-member of trioctahedral chlorites) were estimated based on the approximate P–T positions of reactions by Chopin & Schreyer
(1983) and Fe–Mg exchange between chlorite and biotite (after Laird 1988).
The topologies obtained for FMASH compositions using the LB06 dataset (Fig. A3-2) are very similar
to the published petrogenetic grids of Theye et al. (1992), Vidal et al. (1992), Oberhänsli et al. (1995), and
Bousquet et al. (2008). Fe-rich carpholite (XMg ≤ 0.3) is stable from <0.3 GPa and up to 350–400°C (depending
on XMg), i.e. not only at blueschist- but also at greenschist-facies conditions, in agreement with natural
constraints from Goffé (1984), whereas Mg-rich carpholite is stable from upper greenschist-facies conditions, in
agreement with experimental constraints from Vidal et al. (1992). Yet, Vidal et al. (1992) investigated the
stability of carpholite vs. sudoite + quartz, whereas the chlorite model used in the LB06 dataset consists of an
ideal-mixing daphnite–clinochlore solid solution. Thermodynamic data for Mg-carpholite, which differ from
values estimated by previous studies (Vidal et al. 1992; Bertoldi et al. 2006), might therefore be questionable.
Carpholite–chloritoid di-variant fields are restricted to narrow temperature ranges (<50°C), and shift towards
higher temperatures with increasing XMg values. Calculated KP(Car/Cld) values (<3.5) are in clear contradiction
with those determined in natural samples (7–11; Goffé 1982; Theye et al. 1992; Azañon and Goffé 1997; this
study).
Therefore, although the LB06 dataset yields topologies very similar to well-accepted petrogenetic grids
for HP/LT metapelites, erroneous predictions of Mg–Fe partitioning between carpholite and chloritoid hamper
its use for carpholite-bearing rocks.
