II.—Notes on the Petrology of a Portion of the North Kalgoorlie Field
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Extract
From the foregoing analyses there is little doubt that the rock is a hornblende-quartz-keratophyre. The term porphyrite, however, has been adopted in the mapping for convenience. It is worthy of note that a very similar rock, though greenish in colour, has been already described from Kanowna by the writer. In the latter, silica amounted to more than 71 per cent, while soda reached 7.85 per cent; potash was again absent.
