| Text Description: | Hand sample; >20g. Cpx ol basalt. V cpx-rich. From "Greg's Mighty Rock" which stuck out into water like a dock pre-eruption, was covered during June 09 trip, and is now barely exposed. Thus ~15m of retreat of cliffs of '08 pfs since June. Crude sub-horizontal columns ~20cm diameter. Columns plus pre-eruption docklike erosion suggest this is a dike - but exposure at this time not good enough to really tell. Cpx olivine basalt similar to 09KCwes001 but coarser and more xl rich. Cpx 3mm, ol rarely to 7mm, plag much smaller (are plag phenos or gms?) |
