“…Metapelitic samples FMC‐1b and FMC‐2c enclose metre‐ to decimetre‐scale mafic eclogites which were subducted in the Cambrian (e.g., Brown, Hand, & Morrissey, 2021), with FMC‐1b preserving an apparent high‐pressure assemblage containing garnet, kyanite, muscovite, rutile, and quartz. Garnet porphyroblasts in FMC‐1b record c. 1240 Ma metamorphism, while texturally distinct fine‐ to medium‐grained garnet in the same sample records Cambrian metamorphism.…”

“…The Western Tasmanian Terrane includes southern Australia's western Tasmania and King Island and contains Mesoproterozoic strata unconformably overlain by Neoproterozoic strata and mafic volcano‐sedimentary sequences (Figure 2; Berry et al, 2008). The Proterozoic strata of western Tasmania were metamorphosed and deformed during the middle to late Cambrian Tyennan Orogeny—an expression of broader subduction orogenesis along the early Palaeozoic East Gondwana margin (Figure 1a; Brown, Hand, & Morrissey, 2021; Meffre et al, 2000; Mulder et al, 2016). The Tyennan Orogeny involved the collision of the east‐facing passive margin of the Western Tasmanian Terrane with an intraoceanic island arc, resulting in c. 515–500 Ma high‐pressure metamorphism, emplacement of an ophiolite onto the continental margin, and ultimately the distribution of several metamorphic complexes across western Tasmania (Figure 2; Berry & Crawford, 1988; Berry et al, 2007; Brown, Hand, & Morrissey, 2021; Mulder et al, 2016; Palmeri et al, 2009; Turner & Bottrill, 2001).…”
