Crystallographic preferred orientations of quartz aggregates in mylonitic orthogneisses from the highest strained central region of the Kalinjala Shear Zone, Port Neill South Australia, are products of a combination of constrictional and flattening strains. These rocks were deformed under granulite facies peak metamorphic conditions, reaching pressures of  ∼ 1.0   GPa and temperatures of  ∼ 800   ±   50 °C. Neutron diffraction textural and fabric analysis methods reveal a dominant single  c -axis maximum parallel to the  Y -strain axis. This is accompanied by a symmetric orthorhombic pattern, where the  c- axis fabrics and corresponding pole figure densities of { a }, { m }, { r } and { z } planes are arranged around the  XY  foliation plane. These fabrics from coexisting adjacent layers suggest that the activation of prism-&lt; a &gt; slip is characteristic for these high-temperature deformation conditions. A small asymmetry in the [ c ], { a } and { m } pole figures suggests a minor component of dextral shearing. The  c -axis pattern is weakened where the foliation is dominated by secondary phases, such as concentrations of biotite mica. The opening angles obtained from cross-girdle  c -axis patterns produce temperature estimates that are  ∼ 100 °C lower than the peak metamorphic temperature of  ∼ 800   ±   50 °C, but closer to temperatures related to a component of flattening strain. These  c -axis patterns are consistent with other structural characteristics and can be related to the late-stage flattening strains during the Kimban Orogeny.KEY POINTSMylonitic orthogneisses are deformed under granulite facies conditions.Quartz fabrics were measured by bulk neutron diffraction and optical methods.Mylonite  c -axis fabrics can be related to the high-temperature deformation and activation of the prism-&lt;  a  &gt; slip system.Crystal preferred orientations indicate a large component of flattening strain superimposed on the dextral shearing observed in the Kalinjala Shear Zone.
