The orbicules appear to have settled under gravity while each was still a skeletal mesh of crystals, since the orbicules are frequently deformed or moulded against one another. Biotite flakes cut primary crystals and are thought to be secondary.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThese orbicular structures are composed of concentric layers of minerals, creating spherical or ellipsoidal patterns that stand out against the background of the granite.
