Extract

In a preliminary note on the dolomite contaet-skarns of the Broadford area, Skye (Tilley, 1948, a), a brief account was given of the constitution and environment of these multizoned assemblages at the contact of the Durness limestone succession with the Tertiary Beinn an Dubhaich granite.1 No detailed survey of the numerous parageneses was then attempted, and it is the purpose of the present paper to fill this gap and to discuss the genetic problems of these skarn assemblages.
