  Fig. 5.9b: Distribution of representative elliptical sections for local populations of xenoliths. Where two sections are shown, the one with greater eccentricity is for country rock xenoliths embedded in xenoliths of the prior solidified magmatic phase, that with smaller eccentricity is for the cognate xenoliths.
