Dioritic

Its geology is complex with rock outcroppings of different types and ages including rocks of granitic, dioritic and quartz monzonitic batholiths that originated during the Mesozoic and Tertiary periods as volcanic rock and a varied sequence of sediments. ❋ Unknown (2008)

'Greenstones, Diorite', are granular mixtures of white albite and blackish-green hornblende, forming dioritic porphyry when the crystals are deposited in a base of denser tissue. ❋ Alexander Von Humboldt (1814)

In the Brazils, in the diamond district of Minas Geraes and St. Paul, which has recently been so accurately investigated by Clausen, Plutonic action has developed in dioritic veins sometimes ordinary mica, and sometimes specular iron in quartzose itacolumite. ❋ Alexander Von Humboldt (1814)

Another mode of transformation occurs where all the strata of the compact limestone have been changed into granular limestone by the action of granite, and syenitic or dioritic porphyry. ❋ Alexander Von Humboldt (1814)

On the formation of jasper by the action of dioritic porphyry, augite, and by persthene rock, see Rose, bd. ii., s. 169, 187, und 192. ❋ Alexander Von Humboldt (1814)

Geolog. ', t. ii., p. 379-415; on a similar effect produced by the action of dioritic and pyroxenic porphyry (the' ophite 'described by Elie de Beaumont, in the' Geologie de la France ', t. i., p. 72), between Tolosa and St. Sebastian, see Dufrenoy, in the' Mem. ❋ Alexander Von Humboldt (1814)

A number of gold bearing porphyries are located in the Quinchia district, and they are generally dioritic in nature. ❋ Unknown (2010)

While some samples show significantly high gold values, the main exploration target is a bulk tonnage gold-silver deposit that could be hosted by the quartz stockwork and the dioritic dykes. ❋ Unknown (2010)

The landmark development from this project has identified high gold values in veins metres below surface and a comprehensive large scale stockwork vein system that covers the entire underground development and the surfaced exposed dioritic body. ❋ Unknown (2010)

From both sampling the vein and the entire blast rounds systematically has conclusively encountered a course gold zone out side of the veins in the intensely chloritic alteration within dioritic host. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Advancement through our development is still in highly mineralized quartz-sulphide dioritic intrusive. ❋ Unknown (2010)

The property is underlain by Cretaceous sedimentary rock of the Puno Group and Tacaza Volcanics, which host at least two separate dioritic intrusive bodies, and are cut by a strong north-south trending fault system with conjugate fracture sets. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Hydrothermal solutions proceeding from dioritic dykes and sills are believed to have been responsible for the emplacement of stacked mantos and hydrothermal breccias in andesitic volcanic and volcaniclastic horizons of Jurassic age. ❋ Unknown (2008)

_a_ is what might be termed a door-sill, a smooth oval stone, evidently from the drift, probably dioritic, at all events a dark-green hornblende rock. ❋ Adolphus Bandelier (N/A)
