| The mylonite layer itself was defined as foliation of the mylonite zone, and lineation for the mylonite zone was determined using the same method as applied to the wall rock area. |
| The margins are straight, with discordant injection veins, and grade into a marginal cataclasite zone adjacent to the mylonite. |
| The formation and preservation of the peridotite mylonite in particular presents problems of interpretation. |
| In highly sheared rocks, relics of amphibolite-facies parageneses are lacking and the mylonite is made up of greenschist-facies mineral assemblages. |
| They arise in the place where the Eurasian continental plate meets the African plate, pushing up a mineral 300 million years old: it is mylonite, a rock that carries the physical energy of the earth. |
| Within the mylonite zones, the gold is primarily concentrated in boudinaged quartz veins that are orientated sub-parallel to the mylonite zones and their immediate wall rock. |
