Igneous

Russia, Khabarovsk territory, Sikhote-Alin range, Tordoki-Yani mountain. Biotite granites containing cordierite. Medium grained, coarse grained. Form batholith. Consist: oligoclase or andesine - 25-60%, K-spar - 10-45%, quartz - 18-32%, biotite - 8-25%. Accesory: apatite, zircon, sphen, monazite, garnet, tourmaline, ortit. Characterized by the presence of cordierite. Low Cretaceous.

Gray dacites. Forms an extensive cover. Phenocrysts: oligoclase, orthoclase, sanidin, quartz, biotite. Phenocrystal sizes: 0.1 - 2 mm, rarely 3-4 mm. Upper Cretaceous - Low Paleocen. Thickness: 500-600 metres.

Russia, Khabarovsk Territory.

Sardinia, Cartoe. Alkaline to transitional basalts, basalts, trachibasalts and hawaites in large lava flows, locally bearing peridotitic nodules, scoriaceous cones. Basalt columnar joints. Pliocene-Lower Pleistocene.

Sardinia, Burgos. Equigranular monzogranites granodiorites. Upper Carboniferous-Permian.

Andesite dyke. Sikhote-Alin series of Eocene subintrusions. Eocene. Porphyry structure.

Dyke granodiorite porphyry. Sikhote-Alin series of Eocene subintrusions. Eocene. The dyke has a length of about 800 m. The maximum thickness is 150 m. It has a submeridional strike (Az. 350 degrees). Az pad. 80 degrees. Angle of 70-80 degrees. Wedges out on both flanks splitting into several small bodies. Pledged by a series of faults, traceable after wedging out of the dyke in siltstones. In the upper part, granodiorites are intensively weathered to a completely disintegrated weathering crust.

Medium fine-grained biotite-pyroxene gabbro-diorite. Pluton. Sikhote-Alin series of Eocene subintrusions. Eocene. Massive texture. Consist: plagioclase 60-65%, clinopyroxene - 15–20%, hornblende - 1-5%, biotite - 10-15%. Accessory: apatite. νδ₽₂
