The micaceous fabric is a light tan-brown with a greenish tint in PPL (from serpentine?). Few voids.
Fabric has ca. 5% silt, mixed with highly decomposed aplastic inclusions. Silt seems to be biotite and muscovite micas, quartz.
(M)c:f:v of (85)9:5:1. Poorly sorted inclusions. Most of the inclusions are fractured, decomposed, or heavily broken down. Inclusions are: feldspars, mica, chert (some radiolarian), and pillow lava. Mica and chert are common, few feldspars.
