The discovery of coesite in metasedimentary rocks not only implies that the materials of continental crust with low density could subduct down to mantle depth, but also initiates a series of studies on continent-deep-sub-duction. Could continental crust be subducted down to the depth of more than 300 km? Water played a role in ultra-high-pressure (UHP) metamorphism although limited. Was the fluid really limited within meter-scale, as the authors suggested, at mantle depth? Erosion and extension could remove the overburden of the UHP rocks, while squeezing and buoyancy could lift up the UHP rocks through the overburden. What, however, is the main process and mechanism with which the UHP rocks have exhumed from mantle depth? All progress of these studies will eventually form and complete a new paradigm of geodynamics.
