357-M0071C-1R-1,010.000RubbleSerpentinite rubbleRubble of serpentinized harzburgites and metagabbro. Pieces <3cm, except for two larger fragments (at 45-65cm) 12-17cm: Fragment is a mix of serpentinized harzburgite and metagabbro. 21-25cm: Fragment of strongly altered metagabbro with yellow clayalteration. The rest of the fragments are serp harzburgites with small debris of fiber serp veins (65-67cm); 10-20% modal bastite (about 6mm in size). The piece at 6-10cm is oxidised by dark red mesh. There may be fresh opx relics at 47cm. There arethin white serp veins sub-parallel to the mesh ribbon texture between 45 and 55cm. Serpentinized harzburgite maybe underwent late metasomatic alteration (mainly around opx bastite).Structures: Open fractures=0 -- No open fractures; Veins=0 -- No veins; Foliation=0 -- MassiveVeins: Shape=0 -- No veinsMinerals: Bastite; Magnetite; Other; Serpentine; Talc
