In the Carboniferous-Permian dyke-suite north of Loch Sunart, Argyll, a complete gradation is displayed from olivine-dolerite to camptonite. The dolerites are more numerous than the camptonites, and dykes of monchiquite are rare. A small number of minettes and allied lamprophyre types of Devonian age are also present. New analyses of biotite and diopside from a minette and of augite and hornblende from a camptonite are presented, with optical data, and the classification of the dykes briefly discussed.
