| Description: | Stob Dearg (1019.56 m.), the northern peak of Buachaille Etive Mor (from the north). Argyllshire. Rhyolites and some agglomerate of Lower Old Red Sandstone age resting on Highland schists (quartzite and Moine gneiss). Conglomerate and shales with plant remains are exposed at the base of the Volcanic Series. Porphyrite dykes are seen in the stream in the centre of the picture, and many of the vertical hollows to the right of this follow north-north-east dykes. Porphyrite is a fine-grained igneous rock containing larger crystals or phenocrysts. |
