	A Glossary to the Formation of the Adirondack Mountains
		A group of plutonic rocks intermediate in composition between acidic and basic, characteristically composed of hornblende, oligoclase, or andesine, pyroxene, and sometimes a little quartz.
		Plutonic rock also comes from molten rock, but it is molten rock that solidifies before surfacing.
		A theory in which the surface of the Earth is made up of a number of rigid plates moving relative to each other, separating at mid-oceanic ridges where new ocean-floor is produced and converging at subduction zones, where one plate descends beneath another.

		In scientific use, connected to the theory of Albert Einstein (1879-1955), published 1905 (special theory of relativity) and 1915 (general theory of relativity), but the word was used in roughly this sense by J.C. Maxwell in 1876.
		In political science, attested from 1919 (in Harold J. Laski) in sense "theory which opposes monolithic state power." Gen. sense of "toleration of diversity within a society or state" is from 1933.
		Catastrophism as a geological or biological theory is from 1869.

		However, most plutonic rocks probably form by both growth and solution of crystals, hence many aspects of their early history are not evident in the final rock (Boudreau, 1987; Hunter, 1996; Higgins, 1997).
		CN theory is based on the observation that in many laboratory studies the growth rate of each crystal is not solely controlled by its size, but appears to be characteristic of each crystal, an effect called growth rate dispersion.
		This equation illustrates the fundamental difference between the LSW and CN theories: in the former the diffusion length scale is a property of the particle itself, hence the 1/r dependence, whereas in the CN theory it is dependent on the distances to the neighbouring particles.

		Plutonic rocks also exist in the oceanic crust; however, by geophysical methods and drilling, these have been determined to predominantly be of basic or ultrabasic composition.
		One, known as the magmatic theory, states that granite is derived by the crystal fractionation of magma.
		The second, known as the granitization theory states that granite is formed "in situ" by ultrametamorphism.

	The Emplacement and Origin of Granite
		Some of the theories that have been postulated include that granite is a surface expression of magma derived from a deep seated batholith and that plutons are derived from the same source as the extrusive but along separate supply routes.
		The "crux" of the granitization theory is migmatites.
		Thus, the neosome, granitic component, was anatexic component; in which case, it may have formed by partial melting of the rock in place and segregation of the melt from the solid, or migration of the melt from its source of origin and intrusion into the host rock.

		The theories that did contradict the Scriptures, as regards the original formation of the earth and its azoic rocks and ages, are pronounced ex cathedrâ, scientiæ, to be "altogether delusive." That is the present state of the case.
		True, we have speculations enough, and theories in addition, but they are rash and ill-considered, because the sciences have been too much separated, and the great majority have devoted their minds to the details of some narrow speciality.
		This theory was noticed approvingly by the President of the British Association in 1863, and the fullest account of it is to be found in two papers by Mr.

		The three porisms stated by Diophantus in his Arithmetica are impositions in the theory of numbers which can all be enunciated n the form " we can find numbers satisfying such and such condi-ions "; they are sufficiently analogous therefore to the geometrical lorism as defined in Pappus and Proclus.
		The first series is known as the " porphyries," while the second group is called " porphy-rites." There are porphyries which correspond chemically and mineralogically to granites, syenites, and nepheline-syenites; while the porphyrites form a parallel series to the diorites, norites and gabbros.
		The principal subdivisions of the group are the granite-porphyries, the syenite-porphyries and the elaeolite-porphyries.

		The second half of the nineteenth century, the fourth period, is remarkable for complicated experiments and profound theories.
		While the experiments of Hall, Föppl, and Tumlirz are repetitions of former ones, with improved methods, the next proof of the diurnal rotation is new as an experiment, although forecast in the idea by Poinsot as early as 1851.

		Magma differentiation results from the process of fractional crystallization, where crystallized minerals are separated from the original magma, leaving behind magma of a slightly different compositio n.

		An Ar-40/Ar-39 and U-Pb study was performed of the Geysers plutonic complex of the Geysers Geothermal Field in California.
		Sixty-nine ion microprobe spot analyses of zircons from four granite samples from the plutonic complex that underlies the Geysers geothermal field yielded Pb-207/Pb-206 vs. U-238/Pb-206 concordia ages ranging from 1.13{+-} 0.04 Ma to 1.25{+-} 0.04 Ma.
		Interpretation of the feldspar Ar-40/Ar-39 age data using multi-diffusion domain theory indicates that post-emplacement rapid cooling was succeeded either by slower cooling from 350-300 C between 1.0 and 0.4 Ma or transitory reheating to 300-350 C at about 0.4-0.6 Ma.

	Igneous (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-09)
		The origin of igneous rocks is closely tied to the theory of plate tectonics in which the rocks themselves are both explained by and help to reinforce the theory.
		The best known and most spectacular examples of igneous rocks are those that erupt on the surface in the form of molten lava from volcanoes.
		Since plutonic rocks are formed in the interior of the earth, they are visible at the surface only after erosion has removed the covering rock.
