1062 C 10 62 June 16-84- 1062 C - East shore Brassana Lake 1062 C' is on East Shore 2 miles below inlet of Brassana Stream. A ledge making out into the lake. A hard silicious laminated Sandstone. Color blue gray weathering to brown gray Many quartz veins cut across it in various directions. Dip 90° Strike W 20 S Barren of fossils. If continued across the lake it would strike the West side about 3/4 mi North of 1062 A' 1062 C² On point forming the North shore of Woodchuck Cove. A very thick bed of barren Sandstone. The rock is traversed in all directions by joints so as to make the determination of the dip impossible. 1062C³ On point 3/ mile below (South of) the East station near the smaller of the two islands 3 miles from the outlet. The determination of the dip is difficult. Numerous nearly parallel lines traverse the bed in a W 20° S direction. These lines are not continuous. Some fossils were found lying in another plane than that shown by the lines
