The rocks of the Armovka Formation (the Fore Range zone, Greater Caucasus) have undergone low-grade metamorphism that partially erased information about initial rock formation conditions. We discovered high-pressure mineral inclusions such as omphacite, phengite, garnet, and paragonite enclosed by pyrite and chalcopyrite. Mineral inclusions in sulfides may provide important information about metamorphic pressure−temperature conditions because they are shielded by the host minerals and isolated from significant low-grade overprinting. Calculations performed on phengite inclusions using the phengite Si-content barometry indicate a pressure ranging from 1.7 ± 0.2 to 1.9 ± 0.2 GPa for temperature of 600 ± 40 °C. These data are consistent with estimations obtained for eclogite bodies embedded in rocks of the Armovka Formation. Geothermobarometry of the latest yielded conditions of 680 ± 40 °C and a minimum pressure of 1.6 ± 0.2 GPa to upper pressure boundary at 2.1 GPa. This fact allows us to assume that the metamorphic rocks of the Armovka Formation were immersed in the subduction zone to the conditions of the eclogite facies of metamorphism, forming a coherent subduction complex together with eclogites.
