Field photographs of serpentinized diopsidite in the Yushishan deposits. (a) Serpentinized marble with amphibolite and interbedded garnet-bearing gneiss. (b) Diopsidite associated with serpentinized diopsidite. (c) Serpentinized marble interbedded with garnet-bearing gneiss. (d) Serpentinized marble comprises carbonate (dolomite or calcite) and serpentine. (e) Diopsidite with serpentinized diopsidite and serpentinized marble. Note that there is obvious zonation among them. (f) Fresh diopsidite develops joints. (g) Hand sample of a serpentinized diopsidite.
