THE ORIENTATION OF FOLDS IN THE DIFFERENT SECTORS The orientation
of folds is fairly constant in different sectors of the Himalaya (Le Fort, 1975). The
first generation folds (Fl) are isoclinal, usually recumbent and the trend of the ...

The clinopyroxenes show characteristic exsolution lamellae (magnetite and
ilmenite) oriented parallel to the (100) parting. Veins of orthopyroxenite and
clinopyroxenite cut across harzburgites. The pyroxenites mostlyoccur as stray
outcrops in ...

The axial orientation of the folds varies due to non-cylindricity from gently to
steeply inclined to reclined, the latter orientation being common in the rocks at or
near the thrust zones. The. metamorphism discussed here pertains to this phase
