Within the low-strain zones, the Dugel Gneiss exists as a medium-grained leucocratic metagranite with phenocrysts of K-feldspar which has recrystallized into granulite facies. The rock is greasy-looking with annealed quartz and feldspar, and syn-granulite facies leucosomes cutting across metamorphic banding, and subsequently deformed by later metamorphism.
