| Description: | The Drongs and Isle of Niddister seen from coast of Oris Field, Hillswick peninsula, Shetland Isles. Sea stacks of granite of the Northmaven Plutonic Complex. The Northmaven Plutonic Complex appears to have been emplaced during a fairly prolonged period of magmatic activity in the Devonian Period. The complex includes a range of rock types from the acidic granite shown to granophyre, diorites and basic gabbros. |
