less drawn out or lenticular thin and thick masses of white quartz infiltrations, or rolled pieces of chalk - [illegible] a dull quartzite. Some of these masses attain a diameter up to 18 inches but usually they are small from three to 6 inches. They are by no means common, and they always occur in a lined center, around them the phyllite has flown. In these things that Richardson has called the intrusive conglomerate. I saw no granite nor diorite pieces, nor anything that looked like foreign material = boulders. All our tectonic and meta- orphic structures, and are in fact are foreign intrusions. Furthermore saw nothing that could be called basal conglomerate, and then is not telling that these phyllites are basal. Neither is there any other material in intrusive rocks. Great granite intrusions occur to the east, but as these are not pure metamorphosed it is clear that they cut all the rocks beneath. I neither did I see an old base upon which these rocks rest. In his report Richardson calls it "a lime- stone conglomerate" By this he means that the so-called boulders lie in a limestone. I cannot see why the formation is called a limestone. It's true that it often appears under beds of calcareous sand.
