“…The granites were surrounded by metamorphosed ultrabasic rocks and closely folded and faulted sedimentary formations. Kirk (1968) and James et al (2010) reported the occurrences of serpentinite enclaves found in porphyritic granite. Jacobson (1970) also described the intensely deformed and metamorphosed crystalline basement rocks which are found as schist and gneiss in several small isolated patches in the northwest of the mountain and fault bounded patch in the southeast.…”
