Layered gabbro.
At this outcrop, the fractional crystallization process has been repeatedly interrupted due to the inflow of new magma in the magma chamber, resulting in the successive accumulation of different mineral crystals onto the bottom of the magma chamber, forming stratified layers of different compositions. The layered rocks mainly consist of gabbro, locally rich in olivine, with thin layers of pyroxenite and wehrlite.
