Restite
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Restite an entity of type: Abstraction100002137
Restite is the residual material left at the site of melting during the in place production of granite through intense metamorphism. Generally, restite is composed of a predominance of mafic minerals because these are harder to melt (see Bowen's reaction series). Typical minerals are amphibole, biotite, pyroxene, ilmenite or other iron oxides and some plagioclase feldspar. When chunks of restite are caught up within the granite it is known as a restite inclusion or enclave.
