Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to provide data on the geothermometrical range of
crystallization conditions of the pegmatites belonging to the Contu-Negovanu area, in
the Lotru-Cibin Mountains. Previous research carried out mainly by means of XRF,
EMPA and ICP-MS provided important geochemical data which are used in the
assessment of temperatures involved during pegmatite crystallization. Several
metamorphically calibrated geothermometers were considered, such as garnet-biotite,
muscovite-paragonite, Sc and Li accommodation in biotite. The obtained temperatures
show different ranges for the two pegmatite types, indicating an early crystallization
stage for the FPs and a later one for the LPs.
