Geology

Short characteristics of the site: Small rocky outcrop. This rock consists of medium grained amphibole-biotite granodiorite passing to tonalite, which contains small mafic enclaves. These inclusions are of amphibole-biotite diorite composition. Chlorite and minerals of the epidote group are products of alteration. The rock has been affected by brittle deformation. The locality forms part of the Brno Massif.
