MEETINGS. 187 



2. — Bon Repos. 



An important out-crop of " long grain " diorite is visible 

 here; the crystals are large, and the stone appears to be 

 somewhat open-drained. Some portions of the rock are fine 

 grained and dark in colour, the fallen masses on the beach 

 appearing black where wet with the sea wash. 



There are intrusive veins of yellow quartz, which cut 

 both the gneiss and the diorite. A study of this bay would 

 repay the Society. 



3. — Long Port, Vazon. 



Rock. — A red granite with large felspar crystals, and 

 glassy quartz exists on the side of the mica trap dyke. 



4. — Perrelle. 

 Light-coloured, open-grained diorite, with a dyke of 

 close-grained blue diorite cutting it, marks the quarry here. 



Several intrusions of the close-grained diorite are found 

 on the shore. 



At Domhue the gneiss is granitoid, with many intrusions 

 of diorite. The latter varies much in colour and gives to the 

 rocks in the neighbourhood a very interesting series of modi- 

 fications. 



5. — Ivy Castle Quarries. 

 Main rock. — Blue diorite with red granite veins occurring 

 occasionally. 



A. Collenette, Sec. Geo. Sect.

 head, and to the Hon. Secretary and Hon. Treasurer, for their 

 valuable services during the past year, brought the meeting to 

 a close.
