A. An arkose consisting of consolidated feldspathic residue (produced by surface weathering of an underlying granitic rock) that has been so little reworked and so little decomposed that upon cementation the rock looks very much like the granite itself. It has a faint bedding, an unusual range of particle sizes (unlike the even-grained or porphyritic texture of true granite), and a greater percentage of quartz than is normal for granite. Syn:reconstructed granite b. A conglomerate that has been recrystallized by metamorphism into a rockthat simulates granite, as in the Lake Superior region. CF:meta-arkose. (references)
