be found which did not contain variable amounts of calcium 
or Magnesium carbonates. 
The last material passed through by the drill was a very 
hard, compact sandstone, which the drillers called granite. 
It proved to be a very interesting rock. Some of the samples 
of it carry a perceptible amount of feldspar, which increases 
its similarity to granite. Also, many of the samples are com- 
posed almost entirely of angular fragments of quartz, show- 
ing that the sand grains were cemented together by silica, 
producing a genuine quartzite which yielded angular frag- 
ments by the action of the drill bit. But all the way through 
rounded sand grains were present in sufficient quantity to 
preclude the idea that this material was granite or other 
eruptive rock. The well record follows, which may be read 
in connection with a study of figure 2, plate XIX.
