Extract
Among the numerous volcanic necks of County Antrim, two—Tieveragh and Tievebulliagh in the neighbourhood of Cushendall—are particularly interesting, the one because it has metamorphosed the country rock into buchite, and the other because of the existence on its scree of a rock of problematic origin. In connection with the buchite of Tieveragh a general note on the name buchite, its origin and its application, has been included at the end of this paper. The paper itself makes no claims to do more than open up the study of these rocks.
