Note that if were making a geologic map, we could draw a line on the map that separates the pelitic rocks containing only Pyrophyllite from those containing Kyanite + Quartz. Such a line(a surface in 3 dimensions) is called an isograd(iso-same, grad-grade). In this case, since it represents the first appearance of Kyanite, we call it the Kyanite Isograd... If we continue walking along the direction that T & P increased in these rocks during metamorphism, we would eventually come to another place where in the pelitic rocks the mineral assemblage changes. This time the change is from Kyanite + Quartz to Sillimanite + Quartz. Again, we can draw a line on the map that indicates this change in mineral assemblage, this time calling it the Sillimanite Isograd. Just like before, this represents the point on the phase diagram, above, where the geothermal gradient intersected the boundary for the reaction... Because the sandstone and the limestone do not contain Kyanite, the isograd does not appear in these rocks, but we can still extrapolate its position across the map or outcrop. 3, record 5, English, - sillimanite%20isograd

Some workers believe that it results from colloidal deposition and that the banding is analogous to the Liesegang rings formed in some gels.

Two commonly noted phenomena are the reorganization of exsolution bodies and the destruction of colloform textures.... A general decrease in the incidence of colloform textures with an increasing grade of metamorphism has been reported from pyritic deposits in the Urals, Japanese sulphide deposits and Canadian Precambrian volcanic masive sulphide deposits. Both these adjustments generally improve the ores from the point of view of the mineral processor. Exsolution bodies do not pass with their host grains into the wrong concentrate and the replacement of colloform textures by granular intergrowths leads to better mineral separation during grinding. 1, record 10, English, - colloform%20texture
