Quartz, albite (An20-30), muscovite, altered mafics (amph?) make up 15% of
Primary Mineralogy. Possible dacite, andesite composition, less silicic than
639F rocks, possibly volcaniclastic. Phenocrysts are euhedral to rounded.
Groundmass completely altered. Large, irregular completely altered patches. No
piece number was given, 999 is a dummy value.
