The sedimentary succession of the Canaveilles Group often is crosscut by dikes of two-mica granite and associated pegmatites. These dikes form part of the deep-seated Canigou granite. They intrude mainly the basal calcareous marbles and the dolomitic marbles, but can also be found higher up-section. In the lower section diorites and quartz diorites sometimes occur. All these granitoid intrusions developed after the formation of the nappe structures towards the end of the Variscan orogeny.
