The pyroclastic dikes of the Tertiary San Luis Potosí volcanic field: Implications on the emplacement of Panalillo ignimbrite

Pyroclastic dikes emplaced along regional NW-SE faults in the Tertiary San Luis Potosí Volcanic Field consist of vitric pumice shards, rhyolite lithics, and broken crystals of quartz, sanidine, and biotite. These clasts display a parallel orientation inside the dikes and have developed devitrificat...
