Road cut through the 200 m thick banded amphibolite formation south of the Sassella gallery (Silvretta Nappe, 4.5 km north of Zernez; Swiss coordinates: 2ʹ801ʹ778/1ʹ179ʹ591). Three details (ac) are located within the sector 220–160 m distance from the gallery: a Intermingling of basaltic schollen in a gabbroic matrix at 216 m south of Sassella gallery. b Banded amphibolite at 184 m south of Sassella gallery. c Swarm of basaltic dykes at 168 m south of Sassella gallery. Each dyke is indicated by an arrow. Some are locally boudinaged (indicated by circles)
