Original Note:
This is not the Moho. It is an intrusive rock (white) emplaced within green rocks. The Moho transition zone occurs at tens to hundreds of meters scale, and it cannot be seen on a single outcrop. The Moho is normally at 7-90 km depth and it is locally exposed by tectonics. https://academic.oup.com/petrology/article-abstract/36/3/777/1491264
