تم توصيف الجيودات السيليسية الشبيهة بثمرة القرنبيط في تشكيلة صلنفة العائدة
للكريتاسي الأعلى. استخدم مطياف الأشعة تحت الحمراء متوسط المدىFTIR لتحديد
التركيب الفلزي لهذه الجيودات. استخدم المجهر الاستقطابي لدراسة المقاطع المجهرية
المأخوذة من داخل الجيودات لتحديد هيئات التّبلور المشكّلة لها. بيّنت النتائج أن جيودات
التشكيلة المدروسة ذات تركيب سيليسي يتجلى بشكل أوبال غير مبلور و خفي التبلور،
كالسيدوان ليفي شعاعي البنية مجهري التبلور، كوارتز كبير الحبيبية بهيئة مواشير
سداسية، كوارتز شعاعي، كوارتز نطاقي، و كوارتز موزاييكي.
Cauliflower silicified geodes within Slunfeh Formation of
upper cretaceous were described. Mid-range infrared spectroscopy
FTIR was used for determination of mineral composition of these
geodes. Polarized light microscope was used for the study of thin
sections taken from inner parts of geodes in order to determine their
crystal habits. The results showed that geodes of studied formation
consists of silicon in form of amorphous to cryptocrystalline opal,
chalcedony of micro-crystalline fibrous radial structure, hexagonal
prismatic quartz, radial quartz, zoned quartz and mosaic quartz.
