Text Description: | Wrangell Lava. Rhyodacite dikes. Medium grained, locally porphyritic rocks with phenocrysts of hornblende, hypersthene, and plagioclase. Dikes range from 1 to 20 m in width and often occur in subparallel sets. Apparently associated with rhyodacite domes (unit QTr). Locally fissile, parallel to dip; or, show columnar jointing, perpendicular to dip. Host andesites (QTau) locally contain sulfide minerals, chiefly pyrite, near contact |
