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.

818	GARDW	RN	Garden waste - A type of artifical deposit. It consists of predominantly organic waste including woody materials, grass and soil. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/04, appendix 1.	Garden waste	C	GRBA	24-FEB-00	TMCM	13-MAR-19		R
819	GAYLUS	RN	Gaylussite - A type of Na carbonate sedimentary rock. Gaylussite (Na₂CO₃.CaCO₃.5H₂O) is characterised by monoclinic flattened wedge-shaped crystals. British Geological Survey Research Report RR/99/03, section 3.3.	Gaylussite	C	GRBA	24-FEB-00	TMCM	08-MAR-19		A
820	GB	RN	Gabbro - A type of gabbroic-rock. In the Rock Classification Scheme, it is a coarse-grained crystalline igneous rock whose mineral mode plots in field 10 of the quartz - alkali feldspar - plagioclase - feldspathoid (QAPF) diagram. Diorite, gabbro and anorthosite are separated according to the average composition of their plagioclase and the proportion of mafic minerals (M): if M is greater than 10% and An (the anorthite content of plagioclase) is greater than 50% the rock is gabbro.
