a–c Livingstone fault in New Zealand (modified after Tarling et al. 2019b). a Schematic cross-section of metasomatic reaction zones adjacent to schist pods and serpentinites. b Outcrop of the reaction zone at the contact between schist and serpentinite. c Tremolite vein network that developed in the serpentinites. d–f Franciscan Complex in USA (modified after Hirauchi et al. 2020). d Photograph of the reaction zones at the contact between serpentinite and metasediment. e, f Photomicrographs of (e) talc networks in the serpentinite and (f) tremolite + chlorite rocks replacing the metasediments under cross-polarized light. Tr: tremolite, Chl: chlorite, Atg: antigorite, Tlc: talc, Dol: dolomite
