Nos. 8048-805=;. From tramway of Britannia Mine, Ten Mile, 1 chain 
N. of battery. 
A fossiliferous conglomerate with ferruginous casts and moulds of 
shells, &c. Remains of corals, crinoids, brachiopods and trilobites, for 
the most part indeterminate. 
(?) Fistulipora. No. 8053. 
Orthis cf. elegantula Dalman. No. 8050. 
Orthis cf. testudinaria Dalman. Nos. 8050, 8055. 
Age—Silurian (? Yeringian). 
Nos. 8056-8060. From spur on W. side of Stony Creek, 4 chains from 
junction with Goulburn River, near Ten Mile. 
t 
Fossiliferous sandstone and grit. Fossils represented by hollow casts; 
chiefly small ramose fistuliporoids, crinoid stems and brachiopods, indet. 
Age—Silurian (? Yeringian). 
Nos. 8062-8064. Mount Terrible Spur, 20 chains east of Specimen Mine, 
Ten Mile. 
Plant remains, indet., in ochreous and brown micaceous sandstone. 
These fossils closely resemble those of the Avon River sandstones. 
Age—Palaeozoic. Horizon doubtful, but probably Lower Car¬ 
boniferous. 
Nos. 8065-8077. On tramway; ij chains above battery, Britannia Mine, 
Ten Mile. 
Fossiliferous conglomerate composed of the remains of corals, brachio¬ 
pods and gasteropods; chiefly as casts and moulds. 
Mould of a portion of a crinoid stem with a badly preserved cast of 
the crown; indeterminate, but probably referable to the / chthyocrinidae 
(including Taxocrinus). The mould of the stem shows numerous con¬ 
spicuous pits, representing the bases of cirri. Specimen No. 8065.. 
Gasteropods, cf. Euomphalus (internal casts). Nos. 8071, 8076. 
Orthis cf. testudinaria Dalman. No. 8068. 
Age—Silurian (? Yeringian). 
Nos. 8078-8084. Same locality as Nos. 8065-8077. 
Arenaceous and micaceous shale with plant remains, indet. 
The remarks given under Nos. 8062-8064 also apply to these specimens. 
Age—Palaeozoic. Horizon doubtful, but probably Lower Car¬ 
boniferous. 
No. 8061. Griffith’s Lime Quarry, Howe’s Creek, near Mansfield. 
An olive-brown felspathic sandstone with plant stem. Judging from 
the undulating sclerenchymatous strands seen on the surface, and the great 
width of the stem, there is very little doubt that this specimen is a denuded 
Tepidodendron stem. A specimen of a Tepid odendr on stem in a pre¬ 
cisely similar matrix from Mansfield occurs in the National Museum 
collection. 
Age—Lower Carboniferous.
