"difficult strata. Below lies more limestone like the preceding holding many flat and lim spired gastropods, a celliform, and fragments of Bathymus. This zone is considered to be about so feet thick. Below lies more conglomerate roughly like the preceding, estimated at 50 to 70 feet thickness. Then more limestone like that previously described from which was obtained Refresquira, Bathymus, and a large lim spired gastropod. Below to the sandstones of Division 14 the wells are almost wholly conglomerate. "The frequency of stratified material, like those of Car Head containing Phyllopterus and Diellrochilus are here not marked, nor are true or false zones of coal being seen during the day. "The attitude of the conglomerates varies little, the general strike being between N. 60 E and N. 70 E and steepening from a dip of 45 S to 64 S at the point whereof the sandstones of div. 14. On the reef at a distance not greater than 100 feet from the conglomerates, sandstones identically similar to those of Table Head appear in just as precise striking N. 65 E, dip 65 S, almost the same attitude of the succeeding conglomerate, in which Hocks of a character similar to the sandstone and interstratified shells were observed, "No evidence, either internal in the sandstones, or the conglomerates, or on the contact between them, exists for the hypothesis of the coal reaching their present position by thrust faulting. This point is about 1/2 miles from the
