The raw materials Sample Clauses

The raw materials. The quartz Quartz is one of the predominant rock materials at the site and utilized here in order to denote the macrocrystalline variety of silicium dioxide, one of the main rock forming minerals in the world. This material is very resistant and readily available in French Guiana in the form of blocks from emerging veins or as waterworn pebbles present in riverbeds. At CPP, as we have previously seen, two varieties of quartz have been collected: (a) hyaline, or milky quartz, and (b) saccharin quartz. The former, high quality variety has been applied in the majority of cases (83.5%) whereas the saccharin one, of lesser quality, is less popular. Quartz flaked stone only represents a very small portion of the lithic collection. Therefore the description of its characteristics remains anecdotic. It includes two flakes, 12 waste fragments and one flake core. The latter is small and measures between 2 and 4 cm. Despite the fact that the collection methodology at the site is to a large extent responsible for the small quantity of quartz flaked stone recovered, the absence of larger sized hammer stones and anvils also reflects that this site was not an important quartz working site. 231 The raw materials from this site have been determined with the aid of geologist Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx. Notably in the tropical environment of French Guiana, any heavy weathering of the surface of numerous types of rock resulting in iron patina does not permit a proper classification. In most cases a fresh fracture is necessary in order to see the interior, an often less affected part of the rock. However, such a destructive method is not appropriate for artefacts. For this reason the raw material has not been identified in certain cases. The magmatic rocks (plutonic and volcanic) This is the most popular type of rock and consists of (leuco) granites, granodiorites, (micro) diorites, gabbros, dolerites, metatufs and aplites. The granites with an average to coarse mineral grain size are the most popular ones and believed to have served as grinding stones albeit that further microscopic research is certainly necessary. The volcanic rocks with a finer texture, notably metatufs, have been collected as raw material for axe manufacture. As these rocks are exotic to Cayenne Island, it is likely that the Amerindians of CPP travelled some distance in order to collect this rock or else obtained it through exchange with other communities. One very exceptional object is represented by means of a stone...
