Abstract:

The breccia units at the Songwe Hill / Mauze complex are located at, or close to, the contact between nepheline syenite and the surrounding country rock. They are small, the largest comprising an area no more than ~125 × 125 m, and occur at the top of small hills abutting the larger, steeper, Mauze mountain. Owing to sparse outcrop, many of the available samples are float. On the weathered surface, the rocks are buff-pink in colour, with local black Mn-oxide staining. Most samples are heavily altered and composed predominantly of clay minerals, after K-feldspar, and Fe- and Mn-oxide phases.

statement:

Six samples were analysed by Intertek-Genalysis, Australia, by ICP-OES and ICP-MS, with powdered samples prepared as sodium peroxide fusions. An additional four analyses was also analysed at Intertek-Genalysis, using the same instrumentation, but with samples instead prepared with Li metaborate. The remaining analyses were undertaken at ALS Loughrea, Ireland, by ICP-OES and ICP-MS. Powders were prepared by dissolution of Li metaborate fusions and by four-acid digestion on unfused powders, the latter technique being used for analysis of Li, Ag, As, Cd, Co, Cu, Mo, Ni, Pb, Sc, Tl and Zn. C and S were analysed using a LECO furnace. Owing to the visibly altered nature of the samples, as well as the heterogeneity when analysing breccia samples, caution is warranted when interpreting the major element data, especially in respect to elements which are mobile in the weathering environment.
