Sunday August 14, 1932
Wea. THUR. MAY 27, 1909 Ther.
I had
trouble getting the made out but does not exceed
30°. Then came Parker slate for five telegraph
files (=60'). With a dip in it of not more than 10° (has
flattened down from 20°) at the top of which are
somewhat
interbedded ls and shale like the lower Highgate
slates. East of this up from now a coarse felsol
granite, I ls engl., made of white and pink ls one
of which is coolidge. Where it belongs I do not think
but maybe in the latter gran = ? Highgate. If
this is Highgate it lies flatter than most of if with
a dip of 10°. Three telegraph files are apart 130'
Returning I see that the Parker slate comes
(contact corners)
above to Mallett and has the same rusty split
as seen yesterday giving the impression if is a cyl.
Then beneath the Mallett comes one regular thin
Parker slate - we see about 30' of it, but there
maybe more. The dip is very low not over 10° Then
the transition Mallett into the Grimrossi.
The Winona layer has almost the same thickness
as seen around Mt. Airons.
