Summary
Stops 1-3 and 3-1. Cordierite porphyroblasts visible as dark patches on cleavage planes of regional phyllites and schists. Note that the size of the patches varies in different parts of the rock. This sample comes from roadside exposures near the parking place for Day 3, Part 1, and shows a coarser development of cordierite patches than at Stop 1-3; but the style of development is similar at both these and other localities in the aureole.
