quartz monzonite
adamellite

The southern and central portions of the region contains quartz monzonite.

Stone Mountain in Georgia is a large quartz monzonite monadnock.

The ore deposits are veins in quartz monzonite and quartzite.

If quartz constitutes greater than 5%, the rock is termed a quartz monzonite.

Local climbers informally refer to the rock as granite, which is a close relative to quartz monzonite.

These pegmatites are likely related to the geology to the east of the mountain which is dominated by the Kinsman quartz monzonite.

The rock type of the Misquah Hills ranges from granite to quartz monzonite to monzodiorite.

The Basin area is underlain by the quartz monzonite of the Boulder Batholith.

The Little Diomede island is composed of Cretaceous age granite or quartz monzonite.

It is described as a biotite granodiorite along the margin of the intrusion which grades into a quartz monzonite in its core.

The Talkeetna Mountains batholith in this area consists of a 74ma-old tonalite body to the east and a 67ma-old quartz monzonite to the west.

External walls of the Conference Center are clad in precisely-cut quartz monzonite (a close relative of granite).

On the north end is a narrow ridge of vertically-jointed Tertiary granite (more specifically, quartz monzonite) called The Needles.

Out at Josh, it was said Lynn shone owing to quartz monzonite's superior friction, which catered to her bantam weight.

The Cripple Creek volcanic complex is surrounded by Precambrian gneiss, granite, and quartz monzonite.

It is the fine grained equivalent of a quartz monzonite containing approximately equal amounts of plagioclase and alkali feldspar.

Examples of granitoid rocks include granite, quartz monzonite, quartz diorite, syenite, granodiorite and trondhjemite.

The quartz biotite gabbro is medium- to coarse-grained, the Climax quartz monzonite is medium-grained.

An example for the formation of wartlike myrmekite can be found at the Palms quartz monzonite which issued from the felsic Gold Park diorite.

Another grain consisting of extremely rounded but glacially dissected quartz monzonite, are another small but widespread element of the pyroclastic fall deposit.

Batholiths are almost always made mostly of felsic or intermediate rock-types, such as granite, quartz monzonite, or diorite (see also granite dome).

It is one of the three separate granitoid intrusions that constitute the Temagami greenstone belt, consisting of rocks ranging from diorite to quartz monzonite.

Because of its coloring, it is often confused with granite, but whereas granite contains more than 20% quartz, quartz monzonite is only 5-20% quartz.

The main pluton, comprising 80% of the complex, comprises felsic and intermediate intrusive rocks ranging from quartz diorite to quartz monzonite.

The village itself is built on Tharwa Adamellite.

This is intruded by a band of Glebe Farm Adamellite.

This adamellite is coarsely foliated and contains biotite mica.

The Grandstand is composed of Quartz-Monzonite, also called Adamellite.

Glebe Farm Adamellite intrusion is found to the south and east of Lake Ginninderra.

The Meredith Batholith contains biotite adamellite.

The Tharwa Adamellite is part of the Murrumbidgee Batholith.

The target rocks were part of a batholith composed of adamellite, mangerite and lenses of anorthosite.

The Grandfathers Granite is an adamellite under 2 km deep south and offshore from Cape Sorell.

The older one consists of granodiorite and adamellite with inclusions of tonalite, diorite, and gabbro.

The ridge is made up primarily of a type of granite, proterozoic porphyritic biotite granite as well as adamellite.

All the others were built of local granites, with Vazon being built of Cobo Granite (Adamellite).

Quartz monzonite (or adamellite) is an intrusive igneous rock that has an approximately equal proportion of orthoclase and plagioclase feldspars.

Glebe Farm Adamellite is a coarse porphyritic micro adamellite of the Silurian age.

Subsequent uplift and erosion of the New England orogeny has seen the majority of the surrounding sediments and metamorphic rocks eroded away, with the Stanthorpe Adamellite remaining due to its resistance to weathering.

They are known as Grassy Granodiorite, and Bold Head Adamellite in the south east, and Sea Elephant Adamellite on the north east is richer in feldspar.

The Tharwa Adamellite resembles Shannons Flat Adamellite, but with more strongly zoned plagioclase (An50-20) contains microcline, it is poor in xenoliths and is coarse grained.

The park is in the New England granite belt, where about 220 million years ago an episode of granite magmatism resulted in the intrusion of the Stanthorpe Adamellite into the surrounding metamorphic and sedimentary rock.

This is required because potassium is an incompatible element and tends to enter a melt first, whereas higher degrees of partial melting will liberate more calcium and sodium, which produce plagioclase, and hence a granite, adamellite or tonalite.

On the west side of lake Ginninderra there is calcareous shale from the Canberra Formation in the north, Glebe Farm Adamellite intrusion in the center and a porphyry of Green-grey Dacitic intrusive containing large white Feldspar crystals in the south.
