Certains ensembles ignés présentent une «pseudo-stratification». S'il s'agit d'ensembles volcaniques on peut souvent y distinguer des coulées successives, de compositions différentes, dans lesquelles on peut établir une véritable stratigraphie; souvent alors la minéralisation se localise à un certain niveau.  1, record 1, French, - pseudo%2Dstratification
