synenite

synenite

It is a kind of magmatic rock, which belongs to neutral deep intrusive rock. light gray, with grainy, porphyritic structure. The content of silica (about 60%) and the diorite is quite, but the alkali (sodium oxide, potassium oxide) is slightly higher than the diorite. It is mainly composed of feldspar, hornblende and biotite, with no or very little quartz. Alkaline feldspar (usually orthoclase, microcline, striated feldspar) accounts for more than 70% of the feldspar. It is often a small rock strain, which forms a complex with basic rocks and alkaline rocks.

It is a type of magmatic rock that belongs to neutral deep-seated intrusive rocks. Light gray, with equigranular and spotted structures. Its silica content (about 60%) is comparable to diorite, but its alkaline content (sodium oxide, potassium oxide) is slightly higher than diorite. It is mainly composed of feldspar, amphibole, and biotite, with little or no quartz. Alkaline feldspar (usually orthoclase, plagioclase, and plagioclase) accounts for over 70% of feldspar. Often appearing as small rock masses, it forms a complex with basic and alkaline rocks.
