Geology
Short characteristics of the site:
Magmatic rocks, Čistá Massif. Several flooded abandoned quarries expose a body of biotite granodiorite. This rock is porphyric with potassium feldspar phenocrysts, mylonitic deformation and foliation are typical for it. Among other rock forming minerals plagioclase prevails accompanied by some micas and accessoric garnet. Biotite forms leaf-like aggregates which are partly altered into Fe-hydroxides.
