Magmatic layering granites.
Rhythmic magmatic layering in granites is an intriguing feature that has been reported from plutons with contrasting chemical compositions from a wide range of tectonic settings.
This is llanduno.
Layering here is beautifully developed and locally magmatic deformation deforms the original layering in systematic ways.
The magmatic origin of accessory cassiterite in the topaz bearing granite average 80 ppm sn is indicated by mode of occurrence and chemical composition of cassiterite.
Layered granites are rare and occur in association with volumetrically dominant non layered rocks having similar composition.
This section depicts magmatic layering within an e w trending magmatic shear zone in the southern part of the corsica batholith.

Instabilities within the magmatic layer.
Magmatic layering in granites prompted by a recent discussion on the granite research list 1 one that was interesting for a change here are a few photos of magmatic layering in the panafrican peninsula pluton at llanduno on the atlantic side of the peninsula south of cape town.

Observations in the s type granites s l of the wilson s promontory batholith demonstrate that one type of schlieren in granitic rocks represent accumulations of mainly mafic magmatic minerals with internal layering formed through pulsed magma flow.

In the middle unit granitic veins concordant and discordant to the synmigmatitic foliation localized in structurally controlled sites foliation boudin.
The most characteristic feature of mingling in high strain in contrast with low strain zones is the development of layering very similar in nature to tectonic solid state sheared gneisses.
Some but not all the images shown have been published in weinberg and searle 1999.
Loss of interstitial magmatic liquid played at most a minor role in shaping the preserved compositions of the schlieren.
