Monazite Th-U-to tal Pb geo chron ol ogy and P-T thermo dy namic mod el ling in a re vi sion of the HP-HT meta mor phic re cord in granu lites from Stary Giera³tów (NE Orlica-OEnie¿nik Dome, SW Po land). Geo log i cal Quar terly, 59 (4): 700-717, doi: 10.7306/gq.1232Ther mo dy namic mod el ling, geothermometric cal cu la tions and monazite Th-U-to tal Pb dat ing via elec tron microprobe anal ysis were used to im prove the pres sure, tem per a ture and tim ing con straints of the HP-HT meta mor phic re cord in granu lites from Stary Giera³tów (NE Orlica-OEnie¿nik Dome, SW Po land). The new data con strained the P-T con di tions to 20-22 kbar and ca. 900-920°C, fol lowed by de com pres sion to ca. 16-18 kbar in the fel sic-to-in ter me di ate granu lites and 18-20 kbar and ca. 950-970°C in the mafic granulite. The lat ter con di tions are con sid ered to closely rep re sent the peak tem per a tures ex pe ri enced by these rocks. In the in ter me di ate granulite, the ma trix monazite and monazite in clu sions in gar net and al la nite yielded an age of 349 ± 2.5 Ma. A HP-HT meta mor phic event with tem per a ture con di tions ex ceed ing 900°C, which are greater than the clo sure tem per a tures of most geochronometers, must have dis turbed and com pletely re set the iso to pic systems, in clud ing the Th-U-Pb sys tem in the monazite. Con se quently, this re set ting pre vented us from con strain ing the age of po ten tial ear lier meta mor phic events or the ig ne ous protolith. The 349 ± 2.5 Ma age is in ter preted as the tim ing of the late-stage HP-HT event and cool ing be low 900°C re lated to the ini tial ex hu ma tion of the granu lites. A com par i son of the new P-T-t con straints with pre vi ous data from the NE Orlica-OEnie¿nik Dome in di cates that the ac ti va tion of the chan nels that exhumed the HP rocks to mid dle crustal depths most likely ini ti ated at ca. 349 Ma, and that all of the meta mor phic rocks in the Orlica-OEnie¿nik Dome likely shared a com mon Variscan evo lu tion af ter ca. 340 Ma.
