Meaning of pulaskite | Babel Free
Definitions
A massive course-grained rock composed chiefly of feldspar with some other minerals such as hornblende and biotite.
Examples
“The pulaskites occupy a position similar to that of larvikite between syenite and nepheline-syenite. Quartz is absent, while felspathoids are present in small quantities.”
“The normal granite nowhere cuts the normal pulaskite, nor does the pulaskite cut the granite. That the two rocks are transitional is clearly shown in some places.”
“Nepheline and sodalite are two accessory minerals in the pulaskites.”
