The exposed country rocks of the granites include mainly serpentinites and related talc-carbonate rocks, and island-arc volcanic assemblages, such as meta-andesites, volcanoclastic and volcano-sedimentary rocks. Serpentinites are the most distinctive lithological units and essential component in ophiolitic complexes of the ANS.
