• Description: Enrichment in B and Li is known from many evolved granites and pegmatites. The Kracovice pegmatite represents the most evolved body with mixed LCT-NYF signature related to the Třebíč Pluton. We studied behavior of B and Li in respect to tourmaline and garnet. Minerals were analyzed by the Cameca SX100 electron microprobe. Lithium was determined using LA-ICP-MS (Department of Chemistry, Masaryk University, Brno).
