Ben Nevis exposes more than 1 km depth of sections of a dissected caldera volcano that has an associated dyke swarm and has been intruded by concentric plutons. The renowned north face (picture) comprises continuous exposure of dacitic sheets, with breccias and some volcanogenic sediments. Breccias beneath the north face include Dalradian metamorphic basement, which has been interpreted as the caldera floor. However, it is predicted that a considerable thickness of ignimbrites lies at depth beneath the corrie floor at Ben Nevis, although it is possible that this will have been cut by plutonic intrusion(s). As at Etive, further south, Ben Nevis volcanic growth will have included formation of an extensive lava pile extruded via the Ben Nevis Dyke Swarm, probably at least in part prior to caldera volcanism.

Yes, heavy water can be found in Scottish lochs as it is a naturally occurring form of water. Heavy water contains a higher amount of deuterium, a heavy isotope of hydrogen, compared to normal water.

well... loch means lake in Scottish(go the scotts!) so i suppose you mean which lake in Scotland is the biggest? it the Loch Ness,(lake ness) situated near to the city of Inverness in the Highlands & Islands. It is 22 square miles in surface area, however at its deepest point it is 754 feet deep - over twice the height of the Statue of Liberty in New York City. The volume of fresh water in Loch Ness is greater than of all other lakes in England and Wales combined.
