Note 21 — Chapter VI · PLUTONIC AND METAMORPHIC ROCKS:—CLEAVAGE AND FOLIATION.
Reading edition
The granite within these veins, as well as generally at the junction with the mica-slate, is more quartzose than elsewhere. The granite, I may add, is traversed by dikes running for a very great length in the line of the mountains; they are composed of a somewhat laminated eurite, containing crystals of feldspar, hornblende, and octagons of quartz.
