DIC_ROCK_ALL (3677 rows)
Dictionary table based on the entire version 3 of the BGS Rock Classification Scheme and is populated directly from the 3 supplying tables (BGS.ROCK_NAME_V3, BGS.ROCK_COMPOSITE and BGS.DIC_ROCK_DUMMY). It contains both the base rock names and addditional codes required for specific application, eg. composite names for use on digital geological maps. It is formally approved as the official source of ALL database codes to be used in BGS corporate databases and MUST be followed.

| 1726 | MELR | RN | Melilitic rock - A type of exotic crystalline igneous rock. In the Rock Classification Scheme, it is defined as a rock that contains more than 10% modal melilite. Although light-coloured, melilite is classified as a mafic mineral belonging to group M. Melilitic rocks are divided into ultramafic-melilitic-rock, and non-ultramafic-melilitic-rock.
