  mineralogy 
  is 
  doubtless 
  that 
  given 
  above. 
  There 
  is 
  evidence 
  of 
  

   a 
  syncline 
  at 
  this 
  point, 
  with 
  an 
  intrusion 
  of 
  gabbro 
  in 
  the 
  bot- 
  

   tom 
  of 
  the 
  trough. 
  Specimen 
  197, 
  is 
  a 
  peculiar 
  green 
  pyroxenic 
  

   rock, 
  containing 
  quartz, 
  and 
  green 
  diopside 
  chiefly. 
  It 
  is 
  a 
  close 
  

   associate 
  of 
  the 
  limestone. 
  Near 
  the 
  line 
  of 
  the 
  section 
  garnet- 
  

   iferous 
  mica 
  schist 
  was 
  also 
  met, 
  no. 
  198. 
  An 
  area 
  of 
  crystalline 
  

   limestone 
  not 
  hitherto 
  recorded 
  was 
  found 
  at 
  the 
  extreme 
  

   western 
  edge 
  of 
  the 
  town, 
  where 
  the 
  highway 
  to 
  Blue 
  Mountain 
  

   lake 
  passes. 
  

  

  Among 
  the 
  most 
  interesting 
  forms 
  of 
  rock 
  in 
  the 
  township 
  are 
  

   thoise 
  associated 
  with 
  the 
  garnet 
  mines 
  in 
  the 
  southern 
  part 
  near 
  

   North 
  Eiver. 
  It 
  was 
  stated 
  in 
  the 
  previous 
  report 
  a 
  that 
  these 
  are 
  

   in 
  Warren 
  co. 
  This 
  is 
  a 
  mistake. 
  The 
  mine 
  now 
  operated 
  

   by 
  the 
  Messrs 
  Hooper 
  lies 
  in 
  Minerva, 
  but 
  very 
  near 
  the 
  line. 
  

   The 
  brownish 
  red, 
  massive 
  garnet 
  lies 
  in 
  a 
  hornblende 
  schist 
  or 
  

   amphibolite, 
  of 
  which 
  it 
  forms 
  about 
  15-20#. 
  Crystal 
  outlines 
  are 
  

   lacking, 
  the 
  mineral 
  occurring 
  in 
  rounded 
  masses 
  up 
  to 
  8 
  or 
  10 
  

   inches 
  in 
  diameter. 
  It 
  is 
  much 
  cracked 
  and 
  granulated. 
  The 
  

   rock 
  containing 
  it 
  is 
  chiefly 
  coarse 
  brown 
  hornblende, 
  with 
  some 
  

   basic 
  plagioclase 
  and 
  some 
  pyrite. 
  Occasional 
  pockets 
  rich 
  in 
  

   feldspar 
  are 
  met. 
  The 
  garnets 
  are 
  more 
  or 
  less 
  shattered 
  and
