Abstract

An intrusive sequence of kentallenite-lamprophyre-granite is clearly indicated by cross-cutting relations at Kentallen. This sequence is the same as that recorded elsewhere in Argyll. It is suggested that the time gap between the intrusion of the kentallenite and of the lamprophyre is small compared with that between the intrusion of the lamprophyre and of the granite.
