The variety of conditions under which zircon forms and reacts during metamorphism is a great asset, but also a challenge as interpretation of any geochemical data obtained from zircon must be placed in pressure–temperature–deformation–fluid context. Under which condition and by which process zircon forms in metamorphic rocks remains a crucial question to answer for the correct interpretation of its precious geochemical...
