due to aerial erosion that came down through
the Clinton (Chimney Hill dolomite). Silurian probably
underlay it.
Erosion in the Ashtman division primarily
in the Chimney Hill dolomite among here about 60-90
feet in thickness. One sees long exposures line
of the contact and somewhere in the live more
than 78 miles part of the plane. The basal few
miles of the Chimney Hill is mainly a crinoid
limestone with some fine Goldrenas, me down
on about one inch deep. Also Orthotheta
sulphurina.
About 30 inches deeper is a bed
of Clinton (see the silicified lrock that I
have talked).
Part of the Chimney Hill, probably 5-10 feet of it in dolomite, small and the large ones.
Much of it has been changed into silica. See
the specimens.
These quarries are fine to see for the
upper upper Clinton and the upper Ashtman
shale.
Then started in to study Reeds brook (2) North
Fork of Jackson Creek section.
