Abstract
We propose that multiphase solid inclusions represent remnants of high-density supercritical silicate-rich aqueous fluids that were in equilibrium with peak minerals at UHP conditions. These fluids show characters which are transitional between aqueous fluids and silicate melts, and were probably produced by dehydration reactions of the host rocks during the latest stages of subduction.
