Petrology and Structural Geology of Lankpeshi Area of Igarra Schist Belt, Southwestern Nigeria

V. I. Megwara & N. Egesi · Journal of Geography, Environment and Earth Science International · 2017

Field study of the area shows that the major rock groups are migmatites, gneisses, schists, quartzites and calc-silicate rocks which have been intruded by a series of granites and pegmatites. The gneisses are sandwiched by the migmatites while the schists are highly weathered. Pe...
