In the area between the villages of Kolchiko and Polydendri there can be found stratabound tourmalinite bands within metapelites (boron-rich aluminous clay precursors). The metasedimentary pelitic/psammitic schists (Vertiskos formation) are associated with migmatitic gneisses and intruded by pegmatites.
