| 42. | The largest documented single crystals of biotite were approximately sheets found in Iveland, Norway.
|
| 43. | The dam sat on a foundation of silt and stable biotite gneiss ( rock ).
|
| 44. | Biotite and all ferromagnesian minerals rarely appear in them, and never in considerable amounts.

| 47. | Their commonest minerals are olivine, anorthite, hornblende, augite, biotite and leucite.
|
| 48. | The younger calcalkaline granites mostly have coarse crystals, they are biotite and hornblende granodiorites.
|
| 49. | The dacites contain phenocrysts of biotite and large feldspar crystals embedded in an oxidized groundmass.
|
| 50. | The Caolingshan Basalt consists of olivine and pyroxene, with crystals of biotite and plagioclase.
