Pinnacle Formation - undivided (VTCAZpu;0)

Pinnacle Formation - undivided

Gray, foliated muscovite-chlorite-biotite-feldspar-quartz schist, phyllite, and metagraywacke. Quartz is commonly blue, and local thin conglomeratic horizons are present. Feldspathic biotite phyllitic metawacke is interlayered with lenses of quartz, feldspar, and gneiss-pebble to -cobble conglomerate (CZpc). Cover rocks of the Lincoln Mountain massif and northwestern flank of the Green Mountain massif.
