Two large, adjacent, igneous intrusive bodies comprised of granite in Precambrian Franklin marble (Mounts Adam and Eve). Rock mass is substantially coarse hornblende granite-gneiss and granite.
The bulk of the Mounts Adam and Eve, two prominent hills that rise above the flat, black dirt onion fields of the Pine Island - Florida, New York, area, is underlain by the Mount Eve Granite. The Mt. Eve is an undeformed, post orogenic granite dated at circa 1020 MA. The granite intrudes both the Franklin Marble and related metasedimentary rocks that make up the rest of this local highland. Where the granite intrudes the Franklin Marble there is a contact aureole that locally contains wollastonite (Volkert, 2004).
Most of the minerals listed for this locality derive from the Franklin Marble and may or may not be related to the granite. One important mineral in the granite was allanite. The rapid weathering of the abundant allanite ended the use of the granite as a building stone in the early 20th century.
