SummaryThe alkali syenites of the Mundwara magmatic suite, Sirohi district, Rajasthan, in north-western India, are chiefly developed in the Musala hill of the complex. They comprise three principal varieties representing different stages of crystallization, viz. nepheline-sodalite syenite, nepheline-barkevikite microsyenite, and nepheline poor leucosyenite. The dominant constituent of these hypersolvus syenites is alkali feldspar, an orthoclase microperthite showing a variable degree of exsolution. The chief mafic mineral is a distinctly green and zoned sodic pyroxene, close to aegirine-augite in composition. A brown calciferous amphibole, identified as a barkevikite, is developed in addition in the microsyenites. Reddish brown biotite of the phlogopite-annite series is common to all the syenites. The petrography and mineralogy of the syenites are discussed, and a comparative study of the Mundwara syenites with similar rocks of the Deccan volcanic province is presented. Chemistry and mineralogy of the syenites of the Mundwara suite suggest that they are related to those associated with the Deccan volcanic province.
