Quebec City, Saturday, August 31-1959. Started in street car from Lewis for the St. Lawrence disastrous bridge over the great river. There are two large cuts directly through the strike of two quartzite ridges of the Laurentian. They are separated by the Chaudiere river that has cut a gorge along the strike through alternations of shale and quartzite. The quartzite is definitely auriferous, we have two samples, one from the northern cut the other from the southern one. Have also taken some red shale (lilley) from the northern cut to use in analysis as to the red color. We then returned by street car and examined the Lilley red shale near the transition into the higher Lewis due to alternations of ls, smpl and green shales that are athyrellow. Concluded there is no fault here of any significance separating the two series, simply crumplings and squeezes. Then collected some raptrilites in the ls series of the Lewis. These are the youngest Lewis fm'ts and are above the Rhemardica ls. Then fasted up and 1:00 P.M. started went up the St. Lawrence river along the S. side. By 7:30 P.M. got to Three Rivers and put up at
