Mont Brome is the second largest of the Monteregian Hills intrusions ~11-12 km in diameter and 350 m high, with an outcrop area of ~58 kmΒ². It comprises of gabbros, foyaite, pulaskite, monzodiorites, nordmarkite and tinguaite. It is approximately coeval with the other Monteregian intrusion 136Β±10 Ma.
