“…The Khondalite Belt is characterized by the occurrence of both high‐pressure (HP) and medium‐pressure (MP) granulite facies rocks in the west (Yin et al., ; Zhao et al., , ), and sapphirine‐bearing ultrahigh‐temperature metamorphic rocks in the east (Guo et al., , ; Santosh, Tsunogae, et al., ). LA–ICP–MS and SHRIMP zircon U–Pb dating showed that the age of metamorphism was broadly 1.96–1.83 Ga (Dan et al., ; Jiao, Guo, Harley, & Peng, ; Jiao, Guo, Wang, & Peng, ; Jiao, Fitzsimons, & Guo, ; Santosh, Liu, Shi, & Liu, ; Santosh, Sajeev, Li, Liu, & Itaya, ; Santosh, Wilde, & Li, ; Wan et al., ; Yang, Santosh, & Tsunogae, ; Yin et al., , ; Zhao et al., ). Minor occurrences of TTG gneisses, garnet–cordierite S‐type granites, charnockites, and mafic granulites, have also been reported within the belt (Guo et al., ; Liu et al., ; Peng et al., ; Wan, Xie, et al., ; Yin et al., ; Zhai, ).…”
