Abstract
THE plateau-lavas of Antrim cover an area of approximately 1,550 square miles—the largest area of Tertiary lavas in the British Isles. Although from the earliest daysof geological science these lavas have attracted many observers, very little has been done in the way of petrological study and, curiously enough, the dominant olivine-basalt lava has never been analysed.Keywords
