Abstract
Summary Pseudomorphs after olivine in Markle basalt from Holyrood Park, Edinburgh, consist of an intimate mixture of hematite and chlorite, along with a small percentage of quartz. A definite relationship exists between the orientations of the two main constituents and is dependent upon their structures.
