[...] la notion de faciès minéral [...] n'est pas autre chose que la paragenèse dans le domaine du métamorphisme. Cette notion exprime qu'à composition chimique constante peuvent se former des paragenèses différentes suivant l'intensité des facteurs physiques du métamorphisme. [...] Par contre [...], le faciès minéral ne dépend pas, en principe, de l'origine de la roche primitive, sédimentaire ou ignée. 4, record 1, French, - faci%C3%A8s%20m%C3%A9tamorphique
