Lamprophyre in the Precambrian of Ontario, Canada. This is part of an igneous dike composed of a rare igneous rock called lamprophyre. Such rocks are ultrapotassic, mafic to ultramafic, intrusive igneous rocks. This one is a gray hornblende lamprophyre with altered mantle xenoliths. Description from Wilson (2006): This dike may be the one described by Higgins (1986). He reported that the dike consists of 60% euhedral amphibole, 20% biotite replacing amphibole and 15%plagioclase. Minor sphene and opaque minerals are present and chromite is reported from the core of the talc-bearing clasts. The bulk composition of the nodules is reportedly pyroxenite, but Higgins did not indicate whether their source was mantle or crust. The rounded outline of the clasts may reflect magmatic erosion during transport and the present mineralogy is the product of regional metamorphism (Higgins 1986). Geologic unit and age: Dubreuilville Dike, Archean Locality: Route 17 roadcut, south of the Route 519-Route 17 intersection, southeast of Princess Lake & north of the town of Wawa, Ontario, southeastern Canada (48° 15' 12.05" North latitude, 84° 52' 59.72" West longitude) See info. at: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamprophyre" rel="noreferrer nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lamprophyre</a> and <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenolith" rel="noreferrer nofollow">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenolith</a> References cited: Higgins (1986) - Nodule-bearing spessartite (lamprophyre) dike near Wawa, northern Ontario.
