Extract

In the memoir dealing with the geology of the Broken Hill district, New South Wales, mention is made 1 of a remarkable rock type found in a few places in the vicinity of Broken Hill, which looks not unlike an aplite in the field. A brief description of its appearance in thin section is given. It consists mainly of what appears to be very basic plagioclase. A fair amount of quartz, some epidote and bluishgreen hornblende were noticed, whilst a notable amount of sphene is present.
