A composite rock whose banding is wholly or partly caused by lit-par-lit injection of granitic magma into layered rock.
Industry:Mining

Industry:Mining
A composition of two or more substances, each remaining distinct, and generally capable of separation by mechanical means.
Industry:Mining
A compositional banding in gneisses that is not primary in origin, but rather is the result of segregation of material from an originally more nearly homogeneous rock.
Industry:Mining
A compositional banding that is parallel to the cleavage rather than to the bedding. It results from the mechanical movement of incompetent material, such as argillaceous rocks, into the cleavage planes in a more competent rock, such as sandstone. Ordinarily, the argillaceous bands are only a few millimeters thick.
Industry:Mining
A compositional category for classifying igneous rocks; e.g., the rhyolite-granite clan. A clan may be defined either by mineralogical or by chemical composition. Clans are subdivided into families.
Industry:Mining
