    Notes: Abstract Over sixty syntectonic deformation experiments in uniaxial compression have been done on fine-grained limestones in the stability fields of calcite I, calcite II and aragonite. X-ray techniques and spherical harmonic analysis of the data were used to determine preferred orientation quantitatively, and inverse pole-figures were derived for these axially symmetric specimens. They display in most cases strong preferred orientation which varies as a function of the experimental conditions, mainly temperature and pressure. At temperatures below 350° C recrystallization is lacking and flattened grains indicate that translation, twin gliding and kinking have been the dominant deformation mechanisms. The inverse pole-figure shows a maximum at c with a shoulder towards or a second maximum at e. This is in agreement with preferred orientation observed in experimentally deformed Yule marble and can be explained as the product of dominant twin gliding on e and translation gliding on r (Turner et al., 1956). At high temperatures (900–1000° C) strong grain growth (from 4 to 50 microns) indicates that the fabric recrystallized. Grains are equidimensional and clear with a marble-like texture. The inverse pole-figure shows a single maximum at r, and c-axes are oriented in a small circle around the axis of compression, σ 1. Such a pattern of preferred orientation would be expected on thermodynamic grounds assuming that recrystallized grains will be oriented in such a way that the strain energy is a maximum (e.g. MacDonald, 1960). Decrease in confining pressure caused a decrease of the maximum at c and the formation of a secondary maximum at highangle positive rhombs in the inverse pole-figure. This can be interpreted as r translation dominating over e twinning. In all deformation experiments an equilibrium in preferred orientation was reached after 20 percent shortening. The strength of preferred orientation decreased with increasing temperature. Aragonite was produced within its hydrostatic stability field at temperatures above 500° C. Close to the phase boundary, coarse-grained textures showed preferred orientation with poles to (010) parallel to σ 1. At higher pressures the fabric is fine-grained and [001] is aligned parallel to σ 1. Evidence is given that the phase change from calcite to aragonite in these deformation experiments is a diffusive and not a martensitic transformation.

    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract In the Early Precambrian Banded Gneissic Complex between Amet and Lawa Sardargarh in central Rajasthan, India, open to isoclinal upright folds with NNE-striking axial planes have affected westerly plunging isoclinal folds of reclined, inclined and rare upright attitudes. Interference patterns of diverse shapes ranging in scale from inches to miles have been caused by variable angle between the axes and axial planes of the early folds, angular variation in the attitudes of the two fold systems, and spatial variation in the tightness of the later folding.
    Abstract: Résumé Dans l'ensemble de gneiss zoné du Précambrien inférieur entre Amet et Lawa Sardargarh, à Rajasthan central aux Indes, des plissements ouverts à isoclinaux, de direction NNE, ont affecté des plissements isoclinaux reclinés, inclinés ou rarement verticaux, plongeant vers l'ouest. Des patrons d'interférence de formes diverses, à l'extension d'un centimètre au kilomètre, ont été causés par des angles variables entre les axes et les surfaces axiales des premiers plissements, des variations angulaires dans la disposition des deux systèmes de plissement, et des variations d'espace des plissements postérieurs.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung In dem früh-präkambrischen gebänderten Gneißkomplex zwischen Amet und Lawa Sardargarh in Mittel-Rajasthan, Indien, haben offene bis isoklinale, senkrechte Falten mit NNE-streichenden Axialflächen nach Westen abtauchende isoklinale Falten überprägt, die selbst eine geneigte, überkippte oder seltener senkrechte Lage aufweisen. Überlagerungsmuster von unterschiedlicher Form und Größe (von Zoll bis zu Meilen) wurden verursacht durch 1. verschiedene Winkel zwischen den Achsen und den Axialflächen früherer Falten, 2. Winkelveränderungen in der Anordnung der zwei Faltensysteme und 3. räumliche Veränderungen in der Dichte der späteren Faltung.
