Vein granites in monzogabbro and monzodiorites of Birkhin complex. 1:5,000 aerial photograph. A — Walls of vein granites. Granite veins are most often orthogonal or at sharp angles to contact with country rocks, which is due to rolling and cracking of gabbro under shear strain; B — rocky walls of vein granites in Ulan-Nur monzogabbro and monzodiorites. Saw-tooth and arcuate shape of veins is due to their origin in a shear environment.
