The core includes metasediments which may be equivalent to Kanmantoo Group. Regional foliation from the Delamerian Orogeny has been overprinted by thermal recrystallisation associated with massive plutonic intrusion. Metasomatic activity is of greisenising type but may include the introduction of porphyroblastic feldspar. An enigmatic `rhyolite appears to be a metasomatised metasediment. Amphibolites are pyroclastic in origin and may be related to seafloor volcanics to the SE. Minor intrusives are probably hybridised extensions from the irregular margins of mafic plutons.
