Layered or banded chromite at Campo Formoso, Baia, Brazil

W. D. Johnston, and H. Capper A. de Souza

The chromite occurs in layers a few millimeters to a meter or more in thickness alternating with layers of serpentine derived from olivine. The resemblance to a sedimentary rock suggests that these layered rocks were formed by the settling of alternate showers of chromite and olivine crystals on the floor of a magma chamber.
