Abstract

Prior to a discovery made recently by the writer, of spilitic rocks at Great King Island, the largest member of the Three Kings group of islands, about 26 miles north-west of the north-west extremity of the mainland of New Zealand, such rocks had not previously been found in this latter country. Some account of the types represented at Great King Island may therefore be welcome, particularly since Gilluly's (1935) recent comprehensive paper has focused attention on spilites and their associations.
