PETROLOGIC DATA
Rock Number: 1
-section from N to S (probably largely up section but can't tell for sure)
-north side is same chaotic boulder conglomerates with garnet that occurs on island to NE
-this shows no bedding features at all
-this changes rather abruptly into a more sorted and graded conglomerate with a dirtier matrix
-garnet increases in size and abundance and anthophylite appears
-moving up section (ie south) it becomes progressivly dirtier and becomes staurolite bearing
-clast size is more sorted and pebble bed/cobble -boulder beds alternate
-clasts are dominantly sedimentary with minor mafic volcanics and intrusive
-siltstone dominant
-SAMPLES 1 and 6 anthophylite, 2 garnet and staurolite, 3 staurolite and garnet and in pelitic matrix conglomerate
