Abstract
Fluid inclusions have been analysed in successive generations of syn-metamorphic segregations within low-grade, high-pressure, low-temperature (HP-LT) metapelites from the Western Alps. Fluid composition was then compared to mass transfer deduced from outcrop-scale retrograde mineral reactions. Two types of quartz segregations (veins) occur in the 'Schistes lustres' unit: early blueschist-facies carpholite-bearing veins (BS) and retrograde greenschist-facies chlorite-bearing veins (GS). Fluid inclusions in both types of segregations are aqueous (no trace of dissolved gases such as CO
