Abstract/Notes | The groups of ophiolithic, that is, crystalline ferro-magnesian rocks in the comprehensive sense, to be dealt with in this and the subsequent paper are those west and east of Genoa. Of these the principal western or Voltri group was already referred to in the preceding paper as being, on its western margin, contiguous to the crystalline massif of Savona, and as constituting with the latter the geological contact-zone of the Alps and the Apennines. The anomaly of its position and petrological character is enhanced by the abrupt, clean-cut division of its eastern margin from the adjacent, more recent, and smaller ophiolithic group of Sestri and Isoverde, which is coeval with the groups of Eastern Liguria. |

The serpentine of Pietra Lavarezza with associated ophicalce is overlain by diabase which forms the left bank of the upper Riasse torrent. In the Recreusi glen, where the unconformable contact of the Triassic limestone and the overlying Eocene argillaceous schist is conspicuously exposed, occur, along the junction of the Eocene ophiolithic rocks, large masses of Triassic gypsum which are quarried near Isoverde. | |

This superposition Mazzuoli and Issel regarded at the time as normal. They therefore assigned the calc-schists and pietre verdi to the Lower Trias, and figured these as such in their map of Liguria of 1887. The formation is now, like that of the Piémontese Alps, recognized as Upper Triassic. | |

The term ophiolithic, though in its original and narrow sense it refers only to serpentines, applies to eruptive basic rocks or pietre verdi comprehensively, irrespective of age, like, e.g., the ‘roches ofitiques’ of the Pyrenees. | |

Near Borzoli occurs the amygdaloidal calcareous diabase called borzolite, and west of Murta the cavernous variety called coschinolite by Issel. Madonna della Guardia is almost entirely built on diabase. | |
