SAMPLE INFO : P49Se14
Sample ID:P49Se14
Station ID:P49Se14
Latitude:51.98605
Longitude:179.60313
Datum:NAD83
Date Sampled:1947-05-01
Sample Type 1:Lava
Sample Type 2:Flow
Final Unit:Anvil Peak
 Text Description:
From a flow, apparently derived from Anvil Peak, that predates the eruption of the dacitic tuff, according to Powers. This is a medium-brownish-gray (5YR 5/1) porphyritic, slightly vesicular basaltic andesite. The phenocrysts (3 mm in size) include bytownite (An82), olivine (Fa15), and sparse augite that is green in hand specimen. The groundmass is an hyalopilitic web of plagioclase microlites, augite, and magnetite.
