| Caption: | Quartz from a quartz vein, A' Bhuidheanach, Dalwhinnie, Invernessshire. |
| Description: | An outcrop of a thick quartz vein occurs at the head of a unnamed stream three-quarters of a mile north by east of A' Bhuidheanach, Dalwhinnie, Invernessshire. This specimen is from that deposit. British Geological Survey Petrology Collection sample number MC 7472. The deposit is Dalradian (Precambrian) in age and is c. 85 feet wide. It can be traced for c. 3 miles though it is thought that it may not be of uniform thickness along its whole length. Recently it has been suggested that the deposit could provide considerable quantities of decorative aggregate. |
