Temperature-pressure (P-T) path of a Grt-Sil-Bt gneiss from Brattnipene, Sør Rondane Mountains, East Antarctica was constrained. Grt A in Pl-dominated layers probably broke down to Bt+Pl+Ky+Sil+Qz+Rt at 770^oC, 0.9 GPa during cooling. Grt B in Grt+Bt-dominated layers is estimated to have formed at 750-850^oC, 0.5-0.7 GPa, followed by isothermal decompression and cooling. P-T histories indicative of clockwise and counterclockwise (or isobaric cooling) paths are both found in a single sample.
