The Compositions of Coexisting Pyroxenes in Metamorphic Assemblages

Chemical and optical data are provided on pyroxene pairs in a range of metamorphic assemblages. Tie line trends in the system CaSiO3–MgSiO3–FeSiO3 for these assemblages are compared with those recorded for plutonic igneous associations.
