SAMPLE INFO : 73ARh17A
Sample ID:73ARh17A
Station ID:73ARh17A
Latitude:62.1322
Longitude:-144.62498
Datum:NAD83
Date Sampled:1973-00-00
Sample Type 1:Other
 Text Description:
Undifferentiated plugs and small intrusive bodies - Chiefly dacite in composition and probably related to second-cycle activity, but many outcrops high on Mount Drum were not visited. Dacitic rocks are light to medium gray with plagioclase, hornblende, and minor biotite and hypersthene phenocrysts in a felty to trachytic groundmass. One intrusive rhyodacite (sec. 29, T4N, R4E) is light buff gray and contains plagioclase and rare hornblende phenocrysts in a feldspar-rich pilotaxitic groundmass.
