These shales contain the the same fauna as 5.34.9 A Dalmavella abund Stenoseriura very common pullevia lacunosa The sharp point in N.E. 5.34.9 is a mass of trap. To the west of this point occurs a series of alternating shales x thin tuff x tuffaceous shale bands. Some of the tuff bands are several feet thick; usually gray acid. These alternating tufts x shales, cut by intrusive masses continue as far as the cove in S.W. 5.35.7 where a uniform mass of a couple of hundred feet of shales occurs. The fossils in the shales, 5.35.7 B. of these series are mostly Dalmavella & Stenoseriura same as N. E. 8 sides. 5.45.7 B not coll.
