Description

OF THE " "WEKA-PASS STONE OF NEW ZEALAND.
271
" which," he sa3's, " must convince any one that the conformity to
the Mount-Brown beds in the south-west branch of the Motunan
River is only apparent." I confess that I cannot follow this
reasoning. It seems to me that these sections, if they are correctlj^
interpreted, show an unconformity between the Amuri limestone
and the lower beds of the Waipara Sj'stem, and a regular sequence
from the Amuri limestone into the Mount-Brown beds, although
the WeJca-joass Stone is ahseyit. But probably Mr. M'Kay has here
mistaken the Weka-pass Stone for the Amuri limestone, a very easy
mistake to make ; and if this is the case his sections will agree with
those in other localities,
Stonyhurst. — This place is on the sea-coast, a little south of the
mouth of the Hurinui. Here the Amuri limestone is overlain by a
grey sandstone, probably the representative of the Weka-pass Stone.
Between the two rocks is a bed of conglomerate formed by sub-
angular pebbles of slate. At first sight all three appear to belong
to one system ; but a close inspection shows that the surface of the
limestone is fissured, and that the sandstone penetrates through the
conglomerate into the fissures of the limestone. This, however, may
be due to chemical erosion.
Biver Coniuay. — Some ten or twelve miles from the mouth we
again get an excellent section in the bed of the river (fig. 4). Here

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
