Abstract
The olivines in dunites and harzburgites of ophiolite massifs in the Baikal-Muya belt are characterized by a great diversity of deformations with a regular change of microstructural types: protogranular, mesogranular, porphyroclastic, porphyrolath, mosaic, mosaic-lath, and parquet-like. Petrofabrics of the petro- and mesogranular types have been formed by the translation slip and static annealing recrystallization at 1100-1300
