Very large masses of ultramafic rock are associated with many mountain systems. Although many tectonic theories are based upon interpretations of their occurrences, their actual mode of origin, hence their tectonic significance, has long been a subject of controversy. One problem is the general lack of adequate field and petrographic descriptions of “ typical Alpine-type” ultramafic rock, if such ex ..." |
