Completely
altered, aphyric, sparsely amygdaloidal volcanic rock.
Pale,
silicified rocks with anhydrite veins and associated alteration halos. Banded
structures are probably vein-related zoned alterations. Fine quartz ± pyrite
and anhydrite ± pyrite amygdules form discrete bands. Pyrite also is present
as very fine grained crystals in microvesicles. XRD mineralogy: quartz dominant,
minor anhydrite, chlorite, illite, and pyrite, and traces of plagioclase.

Completely
altered, aphyric, sparsely vesicular volcanic rock.
Silicified
rock with anhydrite-chlorite or quartz-chlorite lined vesicles and small
(<1 mm) quartz, quartz-pyrite, and pyrite-chlorite amgydules. XRD mineralogy:
quartz dominant, minor illite, pyrite, and chlorite, and traces of anhydrite
and plagioclase.

Completely
altered, magnetite-bearing, aphyric, sparsely vesicular volcanic rock.
Pervasive
silicification. Magnetite (1%-5%) is present throughout the rock as very
fine grained disseminations and as vesicle fill with blue quartz and pyrite,
and occasional late anhydrite. In the vesicles magnetite-quartz represents
an early assemblage followed by pyrite ± anhydrite. Magnetite increases
in abundance toward anhydrite-pyrite veins. XRD mineralogy: quartz and plagioclase
dominant, minor chlorite, anhydrite, pyrite, and magnetite.
