Pegmatite (VTY3Cp;0)

Pegmatite

Light-gray to pinkish-gray, biotite-muscovite (±garnet±tourmaline±magnetite) granite pegmatite as crosscutting pods and larger bodies. Albitic garnet-muscovite pegmatite common in metapelitic rocks of the Mount Holly Complex, and especially prominent in the northern and east-central parts of the Green Mountain massif. Assignment of individual pegmatites to Y3C is highly interpretive based on crosscutting of gneissosity and weakly deformed character. Mount Holly Complex intrusive rocks. Rocks of the Green Mountain and Lincoln Mountain massifs and eastern domes.
