is a marked sandy gne passing downwar into
dark blue shaly limestone and then again into the
similar heavy bedded blue intercrystalline li.
From this sandy gne there are few fossils.
The Oriskany cannot be thicker than 35 feet
at Panther Gap. It has many fossils but one cannot
make them out. The abundance of fossils leads
to the belief that it is the Upper Oriskany.
While the various sections seem to lack certain
formations yet, the succession appear to be complete
since one cannot make out unconformities. The
only unconformity seen is between the Chautauqua
and Marcellus. This is quite marked.
