dc.description.abstract | <p> Samples from two granitic offshoot dikes from the Murray granite, and from the Murray granite itself were analysed for eight major elements using X-Ray Fluorescence, to determine whether or not the dikes represented remobilized parts of the Murray granite and as such could have a different chemical composition from the parent material.</p> <p> The analyses show that only very minor chemical differences exist between the two granitic dikes and the main Murray granite. However four samples of the dike rocks appear to show element exchange with the Sudbury norite surrounding them, resulting in increased Na2O and CaO contents and lower K2O contents, resulting in increased amounts of albitic plagioclase.</p> | en_US |
