Kyanite–sillimanite metamorphism of the Precambrian …
Four Precambrian metamorphic complexes in the vicinity of regional faults in the Transangarian region of the Yenisei Ridge were examined. Based on geothermobarometry and P-T path calculations, our geological and petrological studies showed that the Neoproterozoic medium-pressure metamorphism of the kyanite–sillimanite type overprinted regionally …

Sillimanite
Sillimanite - Al 2 SiO 5 Sillimanite was named by George Thomas Bowen in 1824 in honor of Benjamin Silliman (Professor of Chemistry and Geology, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, USA). The minerals kyanite, adalusite and sillimanite are polymorphs of Al 2 SiO 5, each occurring under different temperature-pressure regimes and are ...

The triple point andalusite — Sillimanite — Kyanite
The triple point in the Al2SiO5 polymorphic system has been determined experimentally; it lies at 6.5±0.5 kb and 595±10° C. This result differs strongly from the data of other experimental investigations on this system; the reasons for this are discussed. The new data given here for the phase boundaries kyanite/sillimanite and andalusite/sillimanite as well as the resulting position …
