The investigation had a threefold purpose: (1) To locate, as accurately as possible, the contact between the hornfels and the intrusive. (2) To determine the relationship of the structure of the surrounding Lower Lorraine formation to the intrusive. (3) To discuss the metamorphism resulting from the intrusive activity.
