Granodiorite moderately deformed at mid greenschist conditions; feldspars fractured, quartz deformed by regime 2 dislocation creep.

Moderately deformed granodiorite; feldspars have fractured, quartz has deformed by regime 2 dislocation creep. There is a weak foliation defined by elongated and recrystallized aggregates of biotite and quartz.
