Abstract

The type of association with which this review article is mainly concerned is one in which, there is reason to believe, acid and basic materials were both in the condition of magmas when they came in contact with one another. Examples of such occurrences are widespread and varied in their manifestations. In many instances a mixture of the two magmas has taken place; sometimes, although intimately co-mingled they have preserved their separate identities, whereas in other cases the mixing has been so thorough as to produce a homogeneous rock-type. Implications of the coming-together of acid and basic magmas are discussed.
