Mount Moran's face is marked by this distinctive basalt intrusion known as the Black Dike. The peculiar black dike looks like a vertical line made by a giant, felt-tipped pen. In this case, the dike is about 150 feet in width, and diabase in composition. Diabase dikes are created when vertical cracks developed and infilled with iron & magnesium-rich, quartz-poor, magma.
