Island is built mainly of arfvedsonite-aegirine microgranite, which is intruded by basic dikes (Harrison et al. 1987).
The island is famous for production of curling stones because microgranites are particularly tough and take a high polish. The stones were produced and exported from the quarry during 1890s, then closed and reopened in 1961. It proved to be uneconomic and closed again in 1973. Material is now taken occasionally to fulfil orders.
The granite has also been worked for road setts and was used for a number of famous memorials in Scotland.

Geochronology

Mineralization age: Paleocene : 61.5 ± 0.5 Ma

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
