Drehu measured the upper Cambrian
quartzite limestone and makes them 350
[illegible] feet thick. The underlying Bolsor quartz-
itic are several hundred feet thick.
The rest on the Pinal schist, a good
deal of which I saw, but not the actual
contact.
The down faulted region to the O.E. of
the Bolsor quartzite mountains begins with
a little of this quartzite followed by about
35 feet of C. li. Then comes Mississip-
pian li that lie almost horizontal.
Both are down faulted blocks. The
Miss is cliffped about 1000 feet and
no C in farther Hood cliffped at
least 300 to 400 feet, It cuts out 30 feet
of the C. li., and all of the Devonian.
In the Miss, the common fossils are
ceras and chiefly Ptenophyllum. Saw also Spirifer more abundant & plicata
