Jan 04, 2012 (A Wilson) - A small pit exposes the marble on the north side of concession road 4. The marble in this pit is fairly clean, with bands of disseminated pyroxene, graphite and larger clasts of plagioclase feldspar. The band appears to be about 110 m wide at this point, but exposure is not good. In the footwall on the western side of the ridge are inclusions of hornblende-biotite diorite.
Jan 04, 2012 (A Wilson) - A typical analysis of the marble is: 44.50% CaO, 0.322% MgO, 0.805% Fe2O3, 0.023% MnO, 2160 ppm Sr and 35.89% CO2.
