A new survey has been carried out and some additional study of zircon morphologies has been performed. Detailed survey shows the true intrusive character of the leucogranite pinpointing to a ring-dyke emplacement mechanism. Zircon morphologies show different characteristics for the tonalite (anatectic, with zircon typologies S1- Q1-L1) and leucogranite (calc-alkaline, with zircon typologies S6-Q2). This apparent paradox is explained taking care of the strong assimilation of CXG metasediments (Neoproterozoic - Lower Cambrian) by a dioritic-tonalitic magma through piecemeal-stopping processes}, title = {Morfología de los circones como indicadores petrogenéticos de la asociación tonalita-leucogranito: El caso del plutón de Zarza la Mayor (Cáceres-España)}, title = {Zircon morphology as a petrogenetic indicators in the tonalite-leucogranite association; Zarza la Mayor pluton case (Cáceres, Spain)}, author = {Rubio Ordóñez, Álvaro and Corretgé Castañón, Luis Guillermo and Cuesta, Andrés}, }
