may however be that the higher beds are somewhat
represented in the hollow between the Chattanooga and
the heavy bedded Marlins or Stancross formation.
I will look into this tomorrow.
Here the succession seems to be as at Big
Stone Gap. The sandy base of the Marlins rests
upon the heavy beds of quartzite making the top
of the Rockwood. If the Ostracode bears
out this view then there is a great hiatus between
the Rockwood and the Marlin's. This also
explains why Campbell calls the quartzite a
dred again or twice. It lies on the line of
post-Rockwood erosion and may or may not
be eroded away.
