The thicknes.? of the seam is therefore 7' 8", 
with 7" partings of shale, which 
corresponds well with the thickness of the second seam in the sections of shafts 
Nos. 6D and 5G' (Passerahhia). 
The fossiliferous hand in the present shaft is the 7" shale above the coal. 
It is v'ery dark grey, very close, shale crowded w'ith fossil loaves, which partly 
are in so close layers that it is difficult to get an entire leaf. 
The fossils arc— 
Glossopteris commtmAs, Fstm. Very numerous. 
Gangamoj^teris cydo]}teraides, Fstm. 
NoggeratMojjsis hislopi, Fstm. Rai’e.
