31. FERRUGINOUS GRIT. 
Mauin land, south of Sandstone 
Island, Western Port Bay. 
Hard brown ironstone, with included 
quartz pebbles, and hollowed by atmos- 
pheric action. 
32. Brown FERRUGINOUS GRIT. 
Thomson’s, near Hayfield, Gipps- 
land. z 
A mixture of coarse and fine angular 
and rounded quartz, cemented by oxide 
of iron.

34. QUARTZ CONGLOMERATE (Ce- 
ment). Map No. 61. 
Moonee Ponds. } sheet 1 N.W. 
35. COARSE Grit. 
Map No. R (al). 
Section 10, Will- Will-Rook. 
} sheet 2 S.W. 
One part of these specimens consists 
of a hard, siliceous quartz rock, and the 
other of quartz grains (granitic), loosely 
connected by ferruginous “clay. It 
occurs with Nos, 11 and 22. 
36. “CEMENT.” Map No. Rb 8. 
Sutton Grange. 4 sheet 13 N.W. 
Very hard quartz conglomerate, crop- 
ping out at the junction of the basalt 
and granite. 
87. CONGLOMERATE. 
Map No. Ru 63. 
Hard Hill. } sheet 14 N.W. 
Large pebbles of quartz, sandstone 
and graphic granite, in a loosely adher- 
ent base of very micaceous, coarse 
granitic detritus. The lead of gold has 
been traced in a direction nearly parallel 
to the Nuggetty lead, but keeping on 
the rise above the gully, along which 
the latter runs. It is probably identical 
with the Bradford lead. ` 
38. CONGLOMERATE. 
Map No. R (a4). 
Section 15, Bulla-bulla. 4 sheet 
7 N.E. 
Pebbles of quartz grit in a fine, white, 
loosely adherent sand.

RATE or “ CEMENT.”

Section 25, Spring Plains, banks 
of Campaspe River, sheet 
13 N.E. 
Occurs at the junction of newer
