| Small intrusions of mafic diorite and large intrusions of granophyric diorite cut the bedded sequence. |
| Generally speaking, the soils produced from diorite are superior to those from dolerite. |
| The cliffs around Port Dickson consist of diorite, hard and difficult to break in pieces, but weathering readily. |
| At this location, a succession of chloritized volcaniclastic sedimentary rocks are over-thrust by a massive undeformed quartz diorite. |
