Magnetic Investigation Of The Hett Dyke

Transcript

The Hett dyke is a vertical intrusion of thoelitic dolerite, associated with the Whin Sill complex, emplaced during the late Carboniferous (Johnson & Dunham 2001). Whinstone rock is particularly useful for roadstone, and it is proposed that the Hett Dyke is a potentially good source for quarrying. Using a computer model, we focus on the possible depths and widths of the dyke in order to review its viability as a roadstone resource.
