- The Appin Group is a thick sequence of metamorphosed Neoproterozoic sedimentary rocks that outcrop across the Central Highlands of Scotland, east of the Great Glen. It forms a part of the Dalradian Supergroup. It is divided into three subgroups each consisting of multiple named formations. In stratigraphic order i.e. youngest at the top, these are: Blair Atholl Subgroup Islay Limestone FormationMullach Dubh Phyllites FormationLismore Limestone FormationCuil Bay Slates Formation Ballachulish Subgroup Appin Phyllite & Limestone FormationAppin Quartzite FormationBallachulish Slate FormationBallachulish Limestone Formation Lochaber Subgroup Leven Schist FormationGlencoe Quartzite FormationBinnein Schist FormationBinnein Quartzite FormationEilde Schist FormationEilde Quartzite Formation This whole succession reflects alternate periods of deepening and filling of the sedimentary basin.
