Chemical map showing variations in Al in a plagioclase-rich vein (Sample
176-735B-120R-2, 99-104 cm). The vein margin on the right side (delineated by
solid black line) is marked by a significant change in plagioclase composition
from calcic plagioclase (An) in the host rock to more sodic plagioclase (Pl) in
the vein. Large, subhedral, zoned plagioclase crystals are concentrated along
the vein wall. The low-Al zone (blue color) in the center of the vein consists
of dark aphanitic material. Note the rim of chlorite on the large clinopyroxene
grain (red color) in the upper right corner. Scale bar = 5 mm. Ap = apatite.
