Abstract

Tourmalinized granites in Langkawi containing muscovite are interpreted by Hutchison and Leow (1963) to have suffered tourmalinization and greisenization. The petrography of the tourmalinized granites appears to be better explained using the available composition model of Atherton and Brotherton (1972). The development of muscovite and other features are the consequences of boron metasomatism (tourmalinization) and other processes need not be invoked.
