Combined (basite-aplite) dykes of the Usty-Khilok quartz syenite-granite massif (West Transbaikalia).
Textures of plastic flow in the combined dykes.
Pillow-like globules in the combined dykes. Zones of quenching are observed in basalt isolations (Usty Khilok massif).
 
Large (to 1 meter and more) basalt globules in 5 meter combined dyke of the Shaluty quartz syenite massif.
Trachybasalt lavas of the Tamir volcano-tectonic structure.
Melanocratic microgranular enclaves in quartz syenites of the Burgasy pluton (Ulan-Burgasy ridge).

Impregnations of potassium feldspar in biotite granites of the Temen pluton (Angara-Vitim batholith, low Kurba river).
Dykes of trachybasalts, trachytes, trachyrhyolites (Zhirim dyke belt) in limestones of the Bilyutinsky quarry.
Slightly melted xenoliths of coarse-grained granites in hybrid quartz latites of the Burgultai stock (Small Khamar Daban volcano-tectonic structure).
 
Textures of plastic flow in composite basalt-leucogranite dyke (Shaluty quartz syenite pluton).
Basalt isolations of irregular shape in the combined dyke of the Shaluty pluton.
