| Description | New Zealand ultramafic rocks are of five types: the great Ultramafic Belt of the South Island, diapiric serpentinite, gabbro-peridotite complexes, metamorphic serpentinite, and dunite mylonite. Many ultramafic rocks display a low-temperature contact alteration, especially Ca-metaspmatism resulting in the formation of rodingite but recently (1965) a high-temperature contact has been recognised in the Red Hills Other types of plutonic rocks are less known, a result of inaccessibility in mountainous terrains and the difficulties of rock correlation. |
