We classified the Nové Dvory garnet peridotites based on the chemical compositions of garnet and constituent minerals. Our petrographic and thermobarometric investigations indicate that the peridotites might have experienced different equilibration stages and the chemical heterogeneity (especially in Cr contents of garnet) may have been created by mechanical mixing of different rock types (i.e., Cr-rich and Cr-poor types) during the compression and/or decompression stage(s).
