I can no Stromatoporas in zone D
neither in the southern or northern lime
quarry but along the middle of the escarp-
ment on the C. R. N. R. they abound in
this gone through a thickness Perhapsly 13
feet. Zone C is the real Stromatopora
horizon being most abundant here but com
in this zone at the southern end of the
cut they are rare or absent. Zones
C and D towards the north are separated
by from 1 to 4 inches of a black bituminous
shale and here zone D has other black
shale bands.
At the very top of the cutting along
the middle in gone A can be seen
several large Geonularias which Helman
take the base of the Geonularia beds of
Grindleys.
The dip is quite irregular. In the
O.&E. quarry it is towards the N.W. quarry
while in the upper end of the latter the
strata again size. It is probably these
undulations and the rapid lithological
change which the Hamilton undergo
