Figure 10. LmLvLs ternary plots of Site 979 and beach sand samples where Lm is total metamorphic lithic fragments including quartz-mica tectonite, polycrystalline mica, phyllite, and slate; Lv is total volcanic lithic fragments including vitric, microlitic, lathwork, and felsitic textures; and Ls is total sedimentary lithic fragments including argillite/shale, siltstone, sedimentary chert, and extrabasinal carbonate (limestone/dolomite).
