- Description: Aenigmatite is common in many trachytes, phonolites and agpaitic nepheline syenites. Petrographic evidence suggests that the aenigmatite in these rocks arises by the reaction of Ti-magnetite with a peralkaline silica-undersaturated liquid, and it is postulated that a no-oxide field, where aenigmatite is stable, exists in alkaline undersaturated magmas.

The Klinghardt phonolites, South West Africa: Tertiary volcanism in western southern Africa

- Description: Over 1OO phonolite bodies of mid-Tertiary age occur in the Klinghardt Mountains, 1OO km SE of Luderitz in Southern South West Africa the only published account of these rocks is that of Kaiser (1926) who gives a generalized map and describes briefly the mode of occurrence and petrography of the phonolites. The phonolite bodies are concentrated in an area roughly 8OO km2 and constitute an excellent example of an areal volcanic field (Rittmann, 1962), i.e. the activity occurred at a number of vents spread over a wide area and in most cases only a single eruptive episode took place at each vent.

The Luderitz Alkaline Province, South West Africa I: descriptive petrology of the Granitberg Foyaite Complex

- Description: The Granitberg foyaite complex is one of three known alkaline igneous complexes, which, together with a dyke swarm, constitute the Liüderitz Alkaline Province of Lower Cretaceous age. The near-circular complex is emplaced into dolomites and sandstones of the Bogenfels Formation. A large fragment of these sedimentary rocks, originally forming the roof of the intrusion, is preserved in the centre of the complex.

- Description: Reactions between the Outer Foyaite magma of the Granitberg Complex and the sedimentary country rocks are striking. At sandstone contacts the magma has assimilated quartz-rich sedimentary material and a suite of pulaskites, peralkaline nordmarkites, and peralkaline granites have been generated by a complex process involving both assimilation and crystal fractionation.
