Porphyritic pyroxene-bearing granitolds - a strongly weathered rock group in central Finland
Intense preglacial weathering is associated with porphyritic pyroxene bearing quartz syenites, quartz monzonites, quartz monzodiorites and monzogranites, which form synorogenic stocks and batholiths in central Finland. The saprolite layers, which are 0.5‑2.0 m thick, or sometimes even more, cover...
