Résumé
A three-metre-wide composite dyke made up of approximately equal quantities of diabase (at the rim), leucogabbro, and syenite, feeds a sill at least 50 m thick that is 98% syenite. The intrusion was initiated by a diabase dyke and this conduit was then exploitex by a leucogabbro, and finally a syenite. All components were probably derived from different magma chambers. Initiation of intrusions by dykes of low-viscosity magma, such as diabase, may be important elswhere, especially for the case of acidic magmas which may otherwise be restrained by their viscosity.
