The Mitchell Peak Granodiorite, Sierra Nevada, California, has an outcrop exposure of nearly 50% stoped blocks in its youngest intrusive phase and an estimated 20% exposure of stoped blocks throughout the entire pluton. In this pluton, stoping thus is an important process. It is an excellent locale to study the effect of stoping on the evolution of magmatic systems. 4, record 1, English, - stoping

À l'affleurement, la granodiorite de Mitchell Peak, dans la chaîne des Sierra Nevada, en Californie, montre une surface faite de presque 50 % de blocs effondrés représentatifs du faciès précoce, et ailleurs dans le pluton, d'environ 20 % de blocs effondrés. Dans ce pluton, l'effondrement de blocs semble un processus important. Il s'agit donc d'un endroit exceptionnel pour étudier les effets de tels affaissements dans l'évolution de systèmes magmatiques. 2, record 1, French, - effondrement
