Resumen

Arkosic sandstone interlayered within calcite mylonites at the base o f the southern Urals accretionary prism preserves their original sedimentary microstructure and presents only a weak shape and crystallographic preferred orientation (SPO and CPO, respectively). SPOs of XZ-sections show fabrics mainly formed by pressure solution, where quartz and feldspar grains have a characteristic bimodal shape and the mean axial ratio of the finite strain is c. 2. The unusual pattern described by the quartz c-axes fabrics formed during the acquisition o f their SPOs is characterised by girdles normal to Y At the light o f our results, and accordingly with the deformation conditions o f the calcite mylonites, the quartz c-axis preferred orientation may be formed by pressure solution under constrictional strain, and not as usually occurs by intracrystalline plasticity.
