Abstract
The Sieggraben structural complex occupies a middle position in the Austroalpine basement nappe system in the Eastern Alps. Investigated area is located at the southeastern part of Austria between the Steinbach and Gschorrholz villages (approximately 150 km south of Vienna). The aim of this paper is to characterize petrographic and mineral chemical composition of meta-harzburgites and meta-pyroxenites. Identified mineral assemblage from selected microstructures of massive to sheared meta-pyroxenite and meta-harzburgite is composed of Ol, Opx, Cpx, zoned Amp, Chl, serpentine group minerals Atg/Ctl, spinel group minerals Spl, Hc and rare Tlc. Meta-harzburgites and meta-pyroxenites are members of a subduction complex.
Key words: Eastern Alps, Sieggraben structural complex, meta-harzburgite, meta-pyroxenite, petrography, mineral chemistry
