Abstract/NotesIn my account of the petrology of the Arnage district of Aberdeenshire, there appeared a description, figure, and analysis of a cordierite-spinel-hornfels from Gallowhill Brae, Arnage. This rock is composed almost entirely of cordierite, with only an accessory amount of spinel, biotite, and plagioclase. On the assumption that the analysis represented the composition of the sliced material, it was pointed out that in the cordierite of this rock, iron-oxides must replace much of the alumina and magnesia of normal cordierite.
