Abstract
Many of you will have seen the spectacular new road cuts on the M1/A1 motorway between Dundalk, Co. Louth and Newry, Co. Down. These road cuts dissect the SE and NE portions of the Ring of Gullion and represent some of the freshest rock exposures ever seen at this ring-complex. Indeed, the blasting of these new exposures could not have been timelier, as recently there has been much debate on the formation of the Palaeogene igneous centres, and especially the Slieve Gullion ringcomplex, with scientists from Ireland and across Europe being involved.
