Just east of Amikougami creek there is a mica-lamprophyre, quiteblack in color. Immediately south of Boston creek bridge there is a reddish lampro-phyre (minette), which shows glistening biotite in hand specimens. Under the micro-scope biotite and hornblende are seen to be abundant. Chlorite, with needles of rutile,an alteration from the mica, is common. There are a few porphyritic feldspars, andmicrocline is abundant. Quartz in small grains is present. Sphene, apatite and mag-netite are accessory minerals.
