Granodiorite mylonite very highly deformed at mid greenschist conditions.
Very high strain mylonite derived from granodiorite. The mylonite consists of continuous layers of dynamically recrystallized quartz and biotite, enveloping strings of feldspar porphyroclasts which have deformed by fracturing only.
