Mica quarrying and processing in Scotland during the Second
During the life of the operations the original quarry remained the most important, supplying almost 70% of the total production. The mica zone in the pegmatite was about one metre wide and was proved for a length of about 80 metres. The muscovite mica sent for processing was of a high quality, it was brownish ruby in colour, hard, substantially

Pegmatite genesis: state of the art-GeoScienceWorld
In the 1970’s and 80’s the most widely accepted model of pegmatite genesis was that of Richard Jahns ( Jahns, 1955, 1982; Jahns & Burnham, 1969) who promulgated the idea that pegmatites evolve from residual granitic melts comprised of coexisting water vapor and silicate melt. Jahns & Burnham (1969) and Jahns & Tuttle (1963) cited
