Abstract
In the studied area, through the field and microscopic studies in detail, based upon variations in the mineral assemblage, progressive sequence of mudstone in the studied have been divided into 5 zones, in order of increasing metamorphism; Zone I characterized by chlorite, Zone II by yellow-colored biotite in pleochroism, the Zone III by brown-colored biotite in pleochroism, the Zone IV by cordierite and the Zone V by cordierite replaced into assemblage of chlorite and mica minerals. Distribution of the contact aureole can be regarded to reflect on both the structure of the granite body occurring in a sheet-like body below the land surface, and the movement of actual Otake Fault. The replaced cordierite appear in Zone V can be regarded to formed through hydrothermal reaction in the latest stage of the intrusion process of Hiroshima granite.
