Abstract
Six different samples of Gabbro-Metagabbro rocks from Gebel (Mountain) Atud area located in the central Eastern Desert of Egypt were collected and studied using Mössbauer effect of iron and x-ray diffraction. The study pointed out the degree of alteration from the point of view of mineralogical identification together with the amount and different of states of iron. A mixed valence iron state was observed in one sample.
