Lower reddish conglomerate
and quartz pebbles
About 7 feet thick
Shift one after another of
these great conglomerates appear.
We saw it section elsewhere.
It is very fortunate that the Bridon-Joggins
line of separation as now drawn will stand. It
will probably be shown that the tip of the Bridon
is any different in different places. For instance
at Cape Anchester seen yesterday the tip of
the bright red clay had an immense amount of
ligning concretions, At Hardridge nothing of these
teds is present. In other places Elles notes
the contact between the Drillstone grit and the
Bridon is decidedly unconformable.
The Bridon series is thus for layed
a red shale series, we saw 200 foot thick limer
which appears to be 200-300 feet more of shales in
which occur the fridifuns limestone and the
gypsum.
