“…In the lowermost 110 m of unit G-I in borehole SK2, large orthopyroxene oikocrysts (5 to 10 mm diameter), set in a finer-grained gabbroic matrix, impart the distinctive porphyritic texture of the PG. Poikilitic cumulates, in which pyroxene or olivine oikocrysts enclose plagioclase chadacrysts, have been described from several different intrusions (Wager and Brown, 1968;Cameron, 1969;McBirney and Noyes, 1979;Mathison, 1987;Eales et al, 1990aEales et al, , b, 1991Wilson, 1992;Maier and Eales, 1994b;Maier, 1995;Tegner and Wilson, 1995;Krynauw and Wilson, 1995;McBimey and Hunter, 1995). A comprehensive criticism of classical cumulate terminology by McBirney and Hunter (1995), in which the interpretation of poikilitic cumulates features prominently, is a contemporary reflection of doubts about the adequacy of the cumulate terminology that have arisen periodically over the past 25 years or more, often prompted specifically by poikilitic textures (Cameron, 1969;Campbell, 1978;Mathison, 1987).…”
