It is generally considered that granitic plutons are forcefully emplaced in acompressional setting and permissively emplaced in an extensional setting. This paper, however,shows that syn-kinematic (extensional) ellipt...

The mylonitic granitic plutons are extended in line-shape (L) and parallel to the regional extensional shear foliation. After being unstrained, the primary shapes of these plutons are also nearly sheet-like (S) . Thei...
