Text Appearing Before Image:
often twolarge individuals cross each other. The sections of this mineral are cracked andpervaded with zeolitic matter, which forms an irregular network. This matter, which 180 THE VOYAGE OF H.M.S. CHALLENGER. looks slightly grey when seen by ordinary light, remains obscured between crossednicols. The augite is seen in roughly formed grains embedded between the felspathicsections. The olivine, of which large sections are seen, is uniformly changed into redhematite ; these sections, however, still show extinctions like those of unaltered olivine.In this rock, as in all the other rocks of Juan Fernandez, magnetite is often observedin elongated sections. In addition to the products of decomposition of plagioclase andolivine, small patches of olivine are to be seen. Some other specimens collected onthe shore differ neither in structure nor in mineralogical composition from those justdescribed. It is consequently to be inferred that Juan Fernandez is principallycomposed of basaltic rocks.
