granitoid

From the granitoid square at the base of the air-shaft came the rattle of after-dinner dishes and the babble of dialect.

Many of these orthogneisses are not equally well foliated throughout, but are massive or granitoid in places.

Yellow and white sandstones are also found in small quantity on the islands, reposing upon the granitoid rocks.

It is probable that the granitoid rocks appear at the surface somewhat to the eastward of this locality.
