A continuation of the band of Carboniferous beds so well known at 



Bourback on account of the beauty of their vegetable remains, has been 



discovered by M. Raboisson, lying between Permian Red Sandstones 



above and Grauwacke schists of uncertain age below. The beds consist 



of shaly sandstones containing plants. G. A. L.

The Lower Eocene or Landenian, on the plateaux which divide 



the He de France from Flanders, is often found in depressions of the 



Chalk, thus giving rise to all kinds of differences of level between these 



two formations. The author regards these as mere pockets of sand and 



clay belonging to the lignite- and-sand formation of the Noyonnais 



and of the Laonnais, and not as the lowest Eocene beds, deposited upon 



the denuded and ravined surface of the Chalk. G. A. L.
