DIC_ROCK_ALL (3677 rows)
Dictionary table based on the entire version 3 of the BGS Rock Classification Scheme and is populated directly from the 3 supplying tables (BGS.ROCK_NAME_V3, BGS.ROCK_COMPOSITE and BGS.DIC_ROCK_DUMMY). It contains both the base rock names and addditional codes required for specific application, eg. composite names for use on digital geological maps. It is formally approved as the official source of ALL database codes to be used in BGS corporate databases and MUST be followed.

786 FMZDI  RN  Foid-monzodiorite - A type of foid-dioritic-rock. In the Rock Classification Scheme, it is a coarse-grained crystalline igneous rock whose mineral mode plots in field 13 of the quartz - alkali feldspar - plagioclase - feldspathoid (QAPF) diagram. Foid-monzodiorite and foid-monzogabbro are distinguished according to the average composition of their plagioclase: if An (the anorthite content of plagioclase) is less than 50% the rock is foid-monzodiorite. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/06, section 5.1 and figs. 9, 11, 12.  Foid-monzodiorite  GRBA  24-FEB-00  TMCM  22-FEB-19   
787 FMZGB  RN  Foid-monzogabbro - A type of foid-gabbroic-rock. In the Rock Classification Scheme, it is a coarse-grained crystalline igneous rock whose mineral mode plots in field 13 of the quartz - alkali feldspar - plagioclase - feldspathoid (QAPF) diagram. Foid-monzodiorite and foid-monzogabbro are distinguished according to the average composition of their plagioclase: if An (the anorthite content of plagioclase) is greater than 50% the rock is foid-monzogabbro.
