was Lauren sandstone, with very rare a few Cambrian
quartzite or even an igneous rock are definitely the

in a very shallow sea,
the oceanic crusts bringing in the precipitates and killing
these in the freshened crusts. Of course in the Humaidia
time -- much later in Leon time did regular oceanic
oceans make their appearance.
Lauren ones in the two most southern camps of Li
cayl. In the most southerly one there is a limestone [instead of Upper
Cambrian age] that is at least 80 feet long by 40 feet thick.
Associated are many smaller masses up to 6 to 8 feet long,
both these is much green shale and even a sandy light
green
Precambrian dark shale. The whole must be a rock slide
so there is an average mix of pieces as in the other camp. It
all has between sandy shales. [Green and blue]
Let me piece with a
trilobite head or tail that looks like Upper Cambrian.
Later get a few more fossils, are Upper C or Ordovician
