| Description: | Ben Hope looking north-north-east from Dun Donadilla, Sutherland. Coarse feldspathic and siliceous psammites of Moine (Precambrian) age, dipping gently to the east. The lower slopes consist of the Ben Hope Sill. The amphibolites of the 'Ben Hope Sill' are associated with the metasedimentary schists occurring between the Moine Thrust and the Meadie Slide in Sutherland. The amphibolites represent a basic intrusion that has subsequently undergone metamorphism to form a schistose, garnetiferous amphibolite that forms an extensive sheet up to 0.5 km. outcrop width. |
