Dans tous les cas le front supérieur des migmatites présente un important phénomène : c'est l'individualisation çà et là de dykes et de petits amas, tantôt concordants, tantôt discordants, d’un granite leucocrate que l'on peut nommer «granite perimigmatique». 1, record 1, French, - granite%20p%C3%A9rimigmatique

Broadly speaking, the migmatites surround and enclose on all sides the anatectic granites with transitions between the granite and the migmatites. The upper limit of the migmatites situated within metamorphic formations, which may be only feebly metamorphosed, has been called the "migmatite front" by C.E. Wegmann. 1, record 2, English, - migmatite%20front

Schématiquement les migmatites recouvrent et enveloppent latéralement le granite d’anatexie avec transition des migmatites au granite. La limite supérieure des migmatites, située dans des formations métamorphiques, éventuellement très faiblement métamorphiques, a été nommée "front de migmatites" par E. Wegmann. 1, record 2, French, - front%20de%20migmatites
