Title
A name given to the resource
(NS) Meta-Pelite Suite -- Shelburne, Nova Scotia
Description
An account of the resource
Samples from the Shelburne area representative of the full range of metamorphic grades. This suite includes a high grade pelitic xenolith as well as samples of the Shelburne granite and aluminum-rich pegmatites. Furthermore a lampophric dyke that intruded from the basement rock to the Meguma Terrace is featured.

Description
An account of the resource
Macroscopic: Garnet-muscovite bearing granitic pegmatite. Visible, green beryl may be present as beryl is often associated with pegmatites. The mineralogy is typical of sedimentary protolith granites which supports the hypothesis that the basement of the Maguma Terrane is pelitic. Thin section pictures in XPL unless otherwise noted in the title of the picuture. Thin sections are 3mm across.

(ADK) Anorthosite-Charnockite and Metamorphic Suite --
Adirondack Mountains, New York
Description
An account of the resource
The Adirondack Mountains of northern New York State are underlain by approximately 20,000 square miles of complexly deformed, high grade metamorphic rocks which are believed to represent a southern outlier of the much larger Grenville Province.The Adirondacks can be divided into the "Lowlands" and the "Highlands" . The Lowlands comprise the northwestern quarter of the belt and are characterized by amphibolite facies metamorphism. The Highlands appear to consist entirely of granulite facies rocks. All rocks in this suite have been collected from the Highlands and predominantly from the southern quarter of the Adirondacks.
This suite of rocks is designed to be representative of the Highlands in general. Therefore it includes both metasedimentary and metaigneous rocks. The latter are very common throughout the Adirondacks and contain the often-discussed anorthosite-charnockite suite of rocks. Almost all rocks in the Adirondack Highlands are strongly foliated. This is the result of intense polyphase deformation that has affected this area.

Description
An account of the resource
This specimen is similar to the famous garnet deposits at Barton Mines at Gore Mountain. The garnets at Gore Mountain can attain diameters of 3 feet. At the Speculator road cut, garnet of 8-10 inches in diameter have been found, but smaller examples were considered to be best suited for the purposes of this suite. Both at Gore Mountain and Speculator, the original rock can be shown to have been an olivine metagabbro. The present mineralogy consists of garnet, hornblende, and plagioclase with the development of narrow rims of very anorthitic plagioclase (An₈₀) surrounding many of the garnets. In addition, orthopyroxene locally replaces hornblende near the plagioclase rims.<br /><br />The following information is from the original OCR document: The origin of the garnetiferous amphibolites has been discussed by Bartholome, "Genesis of the Gore Mountain Garnet Deposit", 1960, Economic Geology, v. 55, p. 255-277. The rims of calcic plagioclase and associated orthopyroxene has been discussed by deWaard, "The Occurrence of Garnet in the Granulite Facies of the Adirondack Highlands, " 1965, Journal of Petrology, v.6, p. 165-191. DeWaard shows convincingly that these rims are formed during the reaction hornblende + garnet + quartz = orthopyroxene + plagioclase + H₂O.<br /><br />Thin section shows plagioclase, hornblende and garnet.<br /><br /><br /><br />

Description
An account of the resource
This specimen is typical of the olivine metagabbros that occur throughout the Adirondacks. These rocks are of great petrologic interest for they contain classic examples of garnet coronas and spinel-clouded plagioclase. Note the preservation of ophitic and sub-ophitic igneous textures even though these rocks have experienced granulite facies conditions. A magnificent example of transition to eclogite facies.
The following information is from the original OCR document: Detailed reactions accounting for both metamorphic assemblages and textures are developed in McLelland and Whitney, "A Generalized Garnet-Forming Reaction for Metamorphic Rocks in the Adirondacks," 1980, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, v.72, p. 111-122. Explanations for a number of metamorphic textures in these rocks can be found in McLelland and Whitney, "Compositional Controls On Spinel and Garnet Formation in Plagioclase of Olivine Metagabbros," 1980, Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology.
The first 2 thin sections show a plagioclase lath and a garnet with plagioclase and olivine surrounding it. The second 2 thin sections show a garnet with plagioclase corona and olivine crystals surrounding the garnet.
