Each is surrounded by a garnet rim which appears to represent magmatic or corrosion Woolen Mill locality. On the south side of the Branch a mile to the west of Elizabethtown and near the mill there is a very interesting rock which exhibits an irruptive contact with the anor- thosite and extends both westward and southward. It is dark, gneissoid and of moderate coarseness of grain. It resembles a rather basic member of the syenite series but has occasional blue labradorite phenocrysts which ally it with the anorthosites. Under the microscope and in slides from specimens without the labra- dorite phenocrysts, the minerals are, rather deep green pyroxene, sometimes showing faint pleochroism to yellow, plagioclase, ortho-.
