    Abstract : High-pressure metamorphism and deformation of the Ullared Deformation Zone (UDZ) in the Eastern segment of the Sveconorwegian Orogen, southwest Sweden is evidenced by ~ 970 Ma retro-eclogite found in association with upper amphibolite and high-pressure granulite facies rocks. Petrographic, structural and geochronological studies of the UDZ were carried out to better understand the regional metamorphism and deformation history with focus on a ~N-S trending part of the zone influenced by a late stage of deformation during Sveconorwegian orogeny, namely the Svarten Zone.
