A sheeted dyke complex is a normal component of an ophiolite, a piece of oceanic crust that has been emplaced within a sequence of continental rocks. The dykes act as feeders for the overlying sequence of extrusive rocks typically pillow lavas, together forming layer 2 of the oceanic crust. As each injection of a dyke represents one increment of seafloor spreading, each dyke is normally intruded into earlier dykes. The dykes are typically dolerites but plagiogranites (trondhjemites) often form a significant part of the complex.  4, record 1, English, - sheeted%20dyke%20complex

In the sheeted dike complex, each dike intrudes older dikes, and the very first dikes formed may be on opposite sides of an ocean. The sheeted dike complex is the smoking gun of an ophiolite. Other ophiolite rocks can form in other settings, but a sheeted dike complex requires continuous crustal spreading to form.  2, record 1, English, - sheeted%20dyke%20complex

The McLaughlin deposit is centered around the sheeted vein complex, a large multistage vein swarm, localized in a dilation zone formed by rheologic contrasts in the footwall polymictic melange. The surface expression of the sheeted vein complex is a subaerial sinter terrace, which merges into the sheeted vein complex.  5, record 1, English, - sheeted%20dyke%20complex

Les gisements de type Chypre se localisent essentiellement dans des complexes ophiolitiques, où des basaltes coussinés recouvrent des complexes de dykes en feuillets, qui recouvrent un complexe intrusif gabbroïque dont la composition devient de plus en plus ultramafique à la base pour devenir des péridotites.  3, record 1, French, - complexe%20de%20dykes%20feuillet%C3%A9s
