Migmatite déformée ductilement pendant un cisaillement. Les gros cristaux blancs de feldspath potassique présentent des queues de recristallisation syntectonique. La forme asymétrique indique un cisaillement de la partie supérieure vers la gauche. A l'échelle régionale, cette déformation ductile d'âge crétacé (vers 120 millions d'années) correspond à une grande faille normale à faible pendage. Massif du Dabieshan, Province de Henan, Chine.
