The compressional behaviour of a natural allanite from Lago della Vecchia (upper Cervo valley, Italy) metagranitoids [A1(Ca0.69Fe0.312+)Σ1.00A2(Ca0.46Ce0.24La0.12Sm0.02Pr0.05Nd0.09Th0.02)Σ1.00M1(Al0.65Fe0.343+Ti0.02)Σ1.01M2(Al0.99)M3(Fe0.543+Fe0.362+Mg0.06Ti0.024+Al0.01)Σ0.99Si1,Si2,Si3(Si2.80Al0.20)Σ3.00O11(OH,O)] has been investigated up to 16 GPa (at 298 K) by means of in situ synchrotron single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Experiments have been conducted under hydrostatic conditions, using a diamond anvil cell and the mix methanol:ethanol:water = 16:3:1 (up to 10 GPa) and neon (up to 16 GPa) as pressure-transmitting media. No phase transition has been observed within the pressure-range investigated. Data collected in decompression prove that, at least up to 16 GPa (at 298 K), the deformation mechanisms are fully reversible. A third-order Birch–Murnaghan Equation of State (BM-EoS) was fitted to the P–V data (up to 10 GPa), giving: V0 = 470.2(2) Å3, KP0,T0 = 131(4) GPa and K′= 1.9(8). The evolution of the lattice parameters with pressure shows a slight anisotropic compression pattern, with KP0,T0(a):KP0,T0(b):KP0,T0(c) = 1.24:1.52:1. The monoclinic β-angle decreases monotonically with pressure, with: βP(°) = βP0– 0.0902(4)P (R2 = 0.997, with P in GPa). The main deformation mechanisms at the atomic scale are described based on a series of structure refinements at different pressures. A comparison between the compressional behavior of allanite, epidote and clinozoisite is carried out.
