Most as amphibole-filled veins cutting fractured pyroxene grains.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           Percent vein material: 2%. Texture: There appear to be alteration fronts where a green amphibole has pseudomorphed the pyroxene porphyroclasts and albitic plagioclase has replaced the plagioclase neoblasts (e.g., Pieces 2 and 3).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               Deformation intensity varies greatly. Pieces 10-12 are coarse-grained and show the least well-developed foliation. The foliation is more marked and the layers finer grained as the rocks are more deformed-section includes mylonitic zones as noted. The amphibolitized zones vary along the core; some clearly post-date deformation, while in other areas the amphibole looks to be deformed as well and may be syndeformational.

Because of extensive metamorphism, the protolith is hard to determine. It is probably microgabbro. Contact of mylonite with adjacent metagabbro is subparallel to foliation.
