of these beds having great individual thickness & the whole alternating in colour from red to green & purple-brown & various shades of reddish & greenish grey. In this Series occurs a band of beds characterized by peculiar bright red colour of inconstant thickness. Also probably several zones of magnesian grit & possibly even limestone. (2) That there is an uncomformable junction between the limestone (No. 5) & the lower series (Nos. 4.3.2.& 1.)

There is also an appearance of uncomformity between the last mentioned Great Series & the limestone next below Z, but this does not appear so clearly from present sections.

Limestone Z weathers in a peculiar manner giving rise to roughened surfaces (see specimen)

The mountains appear to be the source of the so called Quartzite Drift of the plains so often mentioned. Much of it may be derived from the lowest Series X. The pale green pebbles mentioned as occurring frequently far out towards the Buttes are probably from the Great Series 4.3.2 & 1.

No fossils or traces of life found anywhere though carefully looked for. Ripple marks not infrequent in Great Series 4.3.2.& 1.
