The US Coast Guardâs largest patrol cutters are the 418 foot, 4,500 ton full load Bertholf Class National Security Cutters. The illustration that accompanies the story of the four new 5,000 ton cutters shows a ship, in many ways similar to the National Security Cutter. It appears there is a medium caliber gun on the bow.
Amphibolite is a rock composed mostly of amphibole minerals. Usually it's a hornblende schist like this as hornblende is the commonest amphibole.(more below). Amphibolite forms when basaltic rock is subjected to higher temperatures (550750Â°C) and slightly greater pressure range than that which yields greenschist.mphibolite is a rock composed mostly of amphibole minerals.

Amphibolite, a rock composed largely or dominantly of minerals of the amphibole group. The term has been applied to rocks of either igneous or metamorphic origin. In igneous rocks, the term hornblendite is more common and restrictive; hornblende is the most common amphibole and is typical of such rocks. Hornblendite is an ultramafic rock (dominantly dark minerals).
