Table 4.

Quantification of the quartz grains featuring different degrees of deformation (from petrography analysis, counting score of 2000 points per sample—repeated 5 times).

Samples Number of Grains (%)

MB Protomylonite - 13.6 56.1 23.7 6.6
MB Orthomylonite - 22.8 39.6 22.2 16.6
Reactive quartzite - 2.8 48.4 36.4 12.4
Reactive mylonite - 1.3 57.4 27.7 13.6
Innocuous granite 37.1 21.3 13.1 10.8 18.0
