"Against the Dilley is faulting the Loris
formation, a series of greenish shales with an abundance
of thin redded light blue and dark colored limestone.
From the strut can it seemed as if the Dilley may
fan unbroken into the Loris formation, but this
view may be rather deceptive. The western end
of the Loris appears to be rather the higher part of
the formation since here the limestones dominate
while to the east the conglomerates appear and more
and more of shales. It is a thin redded green
of li. of about 10 to 15 feet thick that I some
years ago got the Humardina gome fauna.
Below the Humardina gome, and beneath the
conglomerate B in dark blue tiny shale is where
Eldania, Tetrapodus and Ridgwayoptus occurs.
Some distance above is a thin green with Phyllagraptus.
Collected all the good material found see.
It began to rain at 3 P.M. and so I re-
turned to the Chateau Fontenais.
