	Big Bend: Intrusive Igneous Features (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Laccoliths, dikes, sills, and volcanic necks are many of the intrusive features that can be seen throughout the park, most of which can be viewed while driving on the park's highways.
		Laccoliths are a second category of intrusive structures that are visible in Big Bend National Park.
		This particular laccolith is composed of syenite, a mafic intrusive igneous rock.

	2. What's a laccolith? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Crown Butte is one of several laccoliths scattered throughout central Montana.
		Laccoliths are a type of intrusive igneous formation.
		With laccoliths the magma moves into an area beneath the ground, causing the overlying rock layers to dome upward.

	Laccolith - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The pressure of the magma is high enough that the overlying strata are forced upward, giving the laccolith a dome or mushroom-like form with a generally planar base.
		Laccoliths tend to form at relatively shallow depths and are typically formed by relatively viscous magmas, such as those that crystallize to diorite, granodiorite, and granite.
		For instance, Devils Tower in Wyoming was proposed to be the remnants of an ancient laccolith.

		The laccolith lies within the late Silurian to early Devonian Central Maine Volcanic Belt, a belt of plutonic and volcanic rocks purported to have been formed along an Acadian subduction or fracture zone.
		This facies, which cooled in the core of the laccolith is a medium-grained, biotite granite.
		The Tableland is all that remains of the upper surface of the Katahdin laccolith.

		The laccolith has the shape of a sand dollar--flat bottom and rounded top.
		The gentle rounded shape defined by the white skyline is probably close to the top of the laccolith.
		The bottom of the laccolith is the treeline on the right and the bare slopes not covered with snow on the left.

	USGS-Publications B2158 - Laccolith Complexes of Southeastern Utah: Time of Emplacement and Tectonic Setting -- ...
		Three well-known laccolith complexes of southeastern Utah, the Henry, La Sal, and Abajo Mountains, have similar petrogenesis, tectonic control, and lithophile hydrothermal mineralization.
		The purpose of the workshop was to present and clarify new field and laboratory data in order to (1) provide an analog for Cordilleran laccolith fields on intracratonic blocks; (2) narrow the age range of Colorado Plateau laccoliths by consideration of errors in earlier dating attempts in relation to recent high-precision
		Ar and fission-track dates; (3) relate distribution of southeastern Utah intrusive centers to tectonics and structures; (4) associate emplacement of laccolith complexes on the Colorado Plateau with specific tectonomagmatic events and possible thermal events of the mantle; and (5) define possible economic ore- deposit implications.

		A laccolith is a blister-like sill of igneous rock injected beneath the surface.
		Although layers are usually associated with sedimentary rock, the igneous rock of the butte is made up of very distinct layers.
		Evidently, the magma filled the laccolith in "pulses" with each new pulse forming another layer.

		Q: If a Laccolith creature attacks and is blocked, can its controller have it deal damage using the "deals no combat damage but deals damage to target creature instead ability" even before first strike damage is dealt?
		A: The Laccolith's ability triggers on it becoming blocked, so you may have it deal its damage before even First Strike damage.
		Q: An opponent attacks with a Laccolith Warrior, a Laccolith Titan, or any other Laccolith creature, and I use a Fog Patch to make the creatures become blocked.

	THE GEOLOGY OF THE TORRES DEL PAINE LACCOLITH, S-CHILE (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		It consists of a basal mafic part (Paine-Mafic-Complex PMC, Michael 1984) and a beautifully exposed granitic laccolith (TPL).
		The TPL intruded in the form of a laccolith along the top of the PMC, shooting into the host rock in the East (West of Rio Ascencio) and the South.
		Pre-intrusive structural elements in the host rocks which were passively rotated indicate emplacement by ballooning of the laccolith, in agreement with the shallow emplacement depth(2-4 km).
