Abstract

earlier geochemical studies, shows that the eclogite is not connected to the mantle. The folded nature of the eclogite lying in the synform over Ulsteinvik is confirmed, but it shows considerable widening at depth, especially northwards. The eclogite also has less dimen­ sionaf variation at depth than suggested from surface exposures. The maxi­ mum subsurface thickness of the body is generally ca. 300 metres, and the volume of the eclogite is estimated to about 5-6 km3.
