The northern half is occupied by the Saint-Mathieu-Leukogranit with its fine-grained ( f γ 2M ) and its coarse-grained facies ( γ 2M ). The southern half comes to lie on the Piégut-Pluviers-Granodiorit ( γ 3M ). The mutual intrusion relationships of the two Upper Carboniferous granitoids is not clear, as both are in fine crystalline facies in the contact area. The fine-grained facies of the granodiorite ( f γ 3M ) also appear outside the contact area at Petit Beaulieu and north of Puyfromental . The granodiorite is deeply weathered in places to form alterites, especially in the Trieux valley west of the town center.
Hektometrische lenses of Parautochthonen mica schist ( ξ 1 ) can be found sporadically in leucogranite such as in Lamothe and northeast of Rebeyrat on Trieux. Even small micro granitic veins ( microns .gamma. ) are available in the two granitoids, such as Lapeyre , La Fauvilie and west of Lacourarie . They strike north-northwest, north, north-northeast, and northeast.
Both granitoids are criss-crossed by faults that predominantly strike north-northeast and north-northwest.
