anywhere. There seem to be 5 parallel Jore-bands^, but in most places 
orJy 1, 2, or 3 of these bands are to be found, probably owing to 
the remainder being bidden by soil and olluvium. How ^the bands 
exposed in the various hills and hillocks join_one another I could 
not usually determine owing to the breaks in continuity of outcrop in 
passing from one hill to another. The accompanying map shows the 
various bands seen, but a closer search than I had time for would pro- 
bably reveal the extension of many o\ these bands. Thus, hidden in the 
jungle on the slopes of South Hill, other bands may exist running parallel 
to that marked along the crest of the ridge.

1 Mr. W. H. Clark informs me that the quarrying carried out by his syndicate during 
1006 hns shewn that these parallel outcrops are due to the folding of a single bed of 
ore bringing it to the surface several times.
