The graphite-rich eclogite vein (VE) is noticeably darker than the host carbonated eclogites (HE) due to the graphite disseminated in the VE that makes it visually black (Fig. 2). We divided the VE into VE 1 (small veins with width 1–5 cm) and VE 2 (large veins with width > 20cm) according to their width.
