Overview

Petrographic and geochemical analyses reveal the petrogenetic affinity of migmatites, suggesting calc-alkaline origins.

Key Points

  • High SiO2 concentrations indicate a significant quartz presence in the migmatites, clarifying their composition.
  • Geochemical analysis shows the migmatites have subalkaline granite affinity, influencing their geological interpretation.
  • Petrographic analysis identified key minerals like microcline and biotite, essential for understanding the rock's formation.
  • The study suggests a syn-collisional tectonic setting, hinting at complex geological processes in Southwestern Nigeria.
