Dec 07, 2005 (G Seim) - Pyrite, pyrrhotite and locally chalcopyrite are reported from rhyolite breccia. Pyrrhotite is the dominant sulphide occurring as selective replacement of ryholite fragments away from the contact with the serpentinite and as massive blobs nearer the contact. The sulphides species within the serpentinite are very fine grained and the separate species were not recorded.
