contorted, and the whole are inclined besides at about thirty-five 

 degrees E.S.E. 



There can be no doubt that the clay bands containing the 

 stones and boulders are of glacial origin, in part at least, and 

 that the larger boulders at any rate have been transported by ice, 

 but by floating ice or land ice ? It must be said that the stratified 

 nature of the clay bands points to floating ice as being the trans- 

 porting agent. In the "pocket" containing the large granite 

 boulder we have noted at least three varieties of granite, a 

 boulder of gneiss, and others of quartz-rock, clay-slate, etc. 



The sandstone, which is of a massive type, contains Gangamop- 

 teris in abundance in certain zones. It passes upwards into a 

 bed of more or less clayey nature, indistinctly, if at all, 

 stratified, and bearing boulders and smaller stones. One well 

 rounded boulder of granite measured eighteen inches in diameter. 

 This deposit is overlaid by shales, and fine-grained, argillaceous, 

 well stratified sandstones. 



Consistently with our former idea we described a mass of till 

 occurring on the Korkuperrimul Creek, opposite Bald Hill, as 

 being banked up against sandstone. It is really overlaid by 

 sandstone. At the large quarry on Bald Hill the sandstones are 

 seen to be overlaid by a bed which is very rudely, if at all, 

 stratified, and containing small stones scattered irregularly 

 through it. The bedding planes of the sandstones appear 

 contorted along the line of junction, but it is possible this 

 appearance may be due to weathering. 



At another small section we described before on the creek, the 

 till is seen underlying tumultuous looking sandstones. The latter 

 bear a few odd stones, several of which we found to be glaciated. 

 A good deal of faulting has taken place here. 



Considering the sections exposed on the Korkuperrimul Creek 

 in this locality, we get a succession as follows : — 



(1). Till containing a great deal of rock material. 



(2). Stratified clays or shales. 



(.3). Sandstones containing intercalated bands of clay 

 bearing boulders.
