Figure 13. Lithostratigraphy <strong>of</strong> drill hole BIC01-01 with photos <strong>of</strong> core from <strong>the</strong> major units.<br />

A) Medium-grained, moderately foliated, intergranular apatitic oxide gabbro.<br />

B) Medium fine-grained, feldspathic olivine clinopyroxenite with poikilitic plagioclase.<br />

C) Medium-grained feldspathic wehrlite with poikilitic plagioclase.<br />

Figure 14. Modal rock types <strong>of</strong> samples taken from drill core BIC01-01 based on relative<br />

proportions <strong>of</strong> olivine, clinopyroxene, <strong>and</strong> plagioclase. Samples are color coded to<br />

lithostratigraphic unit shown in Figure 13 <strong>and</strong> to <strong>the</strong>ir oxide mode (> or < 15%). Base<br />
