In similar contrast to the Okenyenya xenolith suite, lithologies such as wehrlite, eclogite and pyroxenite are also absent. |
|
Other common minor constituents of eclogite include kyanite, orthopyroxene, rutile, amphibole, pyrite, and white mica. |
|
Specific rock names that record both the parent rock and its mineralogy are relatively rare, but include eclogite, blueschist, and amphibolite. |
|
Ye et al. recently reported abundant exsolutions of clinopyroxene, rutile and apatite in garnet of a Yangkou eclogite sample. |
|
A large sample of eclogite was collected from a small bay close to Letterfearn. |
|
Diamonds sometimes contain minute inclusions of the minerals garnet, olivine, and pyroxene, which indicate formation in two major mantle rock-types, peridotite and eclogite. |
|
Assiduoud field-workers have discovered little pods of a rock called eclogite in the rocks around San Bernardino. |
|
Eclogite is a diamond source rock rarer than harzburgite, but a lot richer in diamonds. |
