Ciser, Tuesday, March 18-19 19,
A fine night and morning. Left started for the
south at 6.30 A.M.
About 5 miles south of Ciser I collected a piece of
the so-called Comanchian conglomerate. Don't its being
Comanchian. It looks more like Lofusette material.
Then in the northeaster corner Gran Cr. we come
upon others of Comanchian. Belms are clear washed
white sandstone and those grade up into chalky li.
replete with Sythaca and other forms. I have four
schinoids for here, a Cideroid collected by Bean,
me Enallaster rock by Schneider and Bryne. The other
species also by Bryne. This is my first experience in
Comanchian rocks.
Had lunch at noon at Otag.
I've collected in the Comphyllium li.=Caddoli,
at the top of the Canno series, also small stream work 1/2
5 miles south of They and then 5 miles to the east. Above
this li., there is a chalky series followed by the basal
sandstone of the Ciser series. See the forms. De Lindan
crude is near here. There is also some local anticlinal
structure clay with synduct structure in the middle which
is faulty,
a normal fault.
Be then went to another more more drilling about 2 miles
