The Age of the Lundy Island Granite

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

IN the Geological Survey Memoir on Ardnamurchan, North-West Mull and Coll, it was stated that the Lundy Island granite is very similar to the granites of Mourne Mountains and Arran, and is probably of Tertiary age. As this suggestion seemed to be contrary to the opinion of geologists familiar with the West of England, who generally consider the Lundy Island granite to be of the same age as the granites of Devon and Cornwall, it was thought desirable to settle the question, if possible.
