GRANITE

Sample 03MW2620 is a porphyritic foliated granite composed of plagioclase (36%), K-feldspar (30%), quartz (25%), chlorite (5%), epidote (1%), oxides (1%), sericite (1%), and trace hornblende, muscovite, garnet, and biotite. This rock is characterized by coarse porphyries of K-feldspar (17 mm) and plagioclase (14 mm) in a matrix of quartz and micas. Perthitic K-feldspar grains show plagioclase inclusions. Feldspar alteration to sericite and epidote is common. Quartz grains are mostly equigranular, and some show serrated grain boundaries. Irregular hornblende grains are rimmed by oxides and epidote, suggesting replacement. Biotite is nearly all replaced by finer-grained chlorite.
