Part seven of a series of data sets dealing with the composition of accessory minerals from felsic igneous rocks reports chemical data for monazite-(Ce) and zircon from eight occurrences of high-Si felsic microgranites/rhyolites in the Erzgebirge−Vogtland metallogenic province of Germany, which possibly emplaced between 305 and 295 Ma. The subvolcanic rocks are discriminated into three groups according to whole-rock geochemistry. Mineral data are acquired between about 1995 and 2005 on surface rocks and borehole samples.

The data set contains the complete pile of electron-microprobe analyses for monazite-(Ce) (MONA-VOLC-2020) and zircon (ZIRC-VOLC-2020). All tables are presented as Excel (xlsx) and machine-readable csv formats. The content of the tables and further information on the granites and regional geology are provided in the data description file. Information on xenotime-(Y), which is commonly rare and did not precipitate in all rhyolites, and rhabdophane-(Ce), which was observed only ones as alteration product of monazite-(Ce), is provided elsewhere (cf. data description file).
