Stercul Fjord
Just downstream from the outcrop
make a mile of the river
is a same terrace glacial
deposits with [illegible] proportion
of reddish sediment for erosion
in a few place probably derived
from alluvium silt. The predominant
aspect of this bed is grey at a
reddish cast.
Joining directly across the
main or glacial valley from
this point other same terrace
deposits can be seen on the
W side of it.
All this appears that there are
E.S. carbonaceous silt, below
the strung plane of alluvium,
fix and that other plane dips
S at 5-6°. In addition to
the E.S. mbr. DT silt, on the NE
side of the Stercul Fjord
also appear to be overridden
by the alluvium.
This high bed oriented and revealed
that the folding at Stercul appears
to be very associated with this
orientation. Then Stercul Fjord
is a F member not a Member.
