| Description: | Eilean Shona, Loch Moidart looking southwards from Smirisary Hill, Inverness-shire. Moine pelites and psammites. From the school building on the right (594 m. east of Baramore) a 6.1 m. north 15 degrees west dolerite dyke lies in a hollow running obliquely uphill, towards the left, almost along a steep junction between (a) pelitic Moine schists forming craggy ground on the right (west) skyline, and (b) flaggy psammitic Moine schists, with a steep easterly dip, forming smoother skyline falling towards the left (east). Steep parallel joints with a trend about east - west, characteristic of the district, are clearly seen in the psammitic rocks. The 'slack' running uphill from the bay on the left is due to a fault. |
