The Mt. just east of Cheattent Head shows a synclinal structure. According to the local description should come out again some- where in the future west of Dry Island, i.e. from Brocky Island. In the Bay however the strata are in folds down the valley. The Blomidon Mts are here the Hill tipped Mts. They stand considerably higher than the Palergic hills, less of Holloways picture brings this out. The Carboniferous country south of Foschels is almost plane in to south here and there two residuals. This plane looks date a level made by the sea. It seems to be at least 275 foot above the sea. The Carb: occurs in low folds. The dip averaging about 20°. Makes of a jellmit and pindock etc. with gypsum seem to pre- dominate.
