Diorite (/ ˈ d aɪ. ə r aɪ t / DY-ə-ryte) [1] [2] is an intrusive igneous rock formed by the slow cooling underground of magma (molten rock) that has a moderate content of silica and a relatively low content of alkali metals.It is intermediate in composition between low-silica gabbro and high-silica granite..

Diorite is most commonly found in continental crusts and is often associated with granitic intrusions. It is found in abundance in the Andes Mountains, the Himalayas, and the Canadian Shield. Diorite can also be found in smaller quantities in other areas around the world, including the United States, South Africa, and Australia.

Diorite rocks have emerged as a viable alternative to river sand. Botswana has an abundant occurrence of diorite rocks that are mainly located in mountainous landscapes as batholiths (McCoy, 2016). Diorite rock(s) are intrusive rocks in nature, they are classified under Igneous rock which can be plutonic (intrusive) and volcanic (extrusive).

Examples of intrusive igneous rocks are: diabase, diorite, gabbro, granite, pegmatite, and peridotite. Extrusive igneous rocks erupt onto the surface, where they cool quickly to form small crystals. Some cool so quickly that they form an amorphous glass. These rocks include: andesite, basalt, dacite, obsidian, pumice, rhyolite, scoria, and tuff.

ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The recent suggestion of the existence of a basaltic magma in the South-west Cape Province shortly before the intrusion of the Cape granites is corroborated by the occurrence of a gabbroic body of pre-granite age at Yzerfontein. A detailed study of the primary rhythmic banding and igneous lamination of this body indicates its origi nal …

The ca. 1100 Ma Namaqualand Metamorphic Complex is host to a number of vein-type monazite-apatite-chalcopyrite-magnetite deposits, which cluster in a approximately 30-km 2 area 160 km south of the Okiep copper district. The largest of these veins, at Steenkampskraal, has been mined intermittently since the late 1950s for thorium.

However, orbicular diorite is an extremely rare variety of the rock that contains many spherical lumps, or orbs, that exhibit concentric zones of light and dark color. Once only known on the island of Corsica, occurrences of orbicular diorite have now been found in South Africa, North Carolina, and a few other locales as well.

Diorite vs. gabbro comparison: Diorite is a coarse-grained rock mainly composed of plagioclase feldspar, biotite, hornblende, and sometimes pyroxene, while gabbro consists primarily of pyroxene, plagioclase feldspar, and olivine. Diorite is typically lighter in color compared to gabbro, which tends to be darker due to its higher iron content.
