Comments on the geologic information

  • LAMPROPHYRE DIKES INTRUDE GRANODIORITE. IN LEVEL A, WALLS OF GRANODIORITE ARE DECOMPOSED AND RUN LIKE SAND. DIKES FEW IN. THICK, BUT OCCASIONALLY WIDEN IN IRREGULAR LENSES. APPARENTLY ONE DIKE INTRUDED GRANODIORITE, THEN WAS BROKEN INTO SECTIONS BY SMALL CROSS FAULTS. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF DIKE ROCKS IN AVERILL (1931).
