1896 W. H. Weed & L. V. Pirsson in Amer. Jrnl. Sci. 152 323 This rock is a new type, and it fills a place which has hitherto been vacant in all systems of rock classification... We have therefore called it missourite from the Missouri River, the most prominent and best known geographical object in the region where it occurs.

1927 Amer. Jrnl. Sci. 214 179 These granitoid augite-leucite rocks will be called missourite, although Pirsson's original Montana missourite contained less leucite and about 15 per cent of olivine.

1927 Amer. Jrnl. Sci. 214 180 The presence of olivine in missourite need not be regarded as essential.

1938 A. Johannsen Descr. Petrogr. Igneous Rocks IV. 335 Missourite is..the plutonic equivalent of the leucite-basalts and is defined as a melanocratic plutonic rock composed essentially of leucite, olivine, and pyroxene.

1963 Mineral. Abstr. 16 388/1 The first missourites recorded from Russia are in an outcrop of alkaline gabbroic rocks near the Lomachan River.

1986 Jrnl. Petrol. 27 1219 The results on the natural rocks appear to support the view that the jumellites and shonkinites are formed at relatively higher water pressures and lower temperatures than the missourites and absarokites.
