Sinossi

Excerpt from Science Progress, Vol. 4

Skiddaw slates of the Lake District. In the Isle of Man slates, coarse breccias are found, and these are considered by Lamplugh to be friction breccias. In Devonshire the Devonian rocks of the Plymouth area have been brought into connection with those of Newton Abbot and Torquay. One of the most interesting an nouncements in the report is that explorations in Cheshire and South Lancashire appear to prove that in both counties the Lower Mottled Sandstone, hitherto taken as the base of the Bunter, belongs to the Permian series, for above it, and below the Bunter pebble beds, lie marls with Scfiz'zoa'us N o doubt all these points will receive fuller treatment in detailed memoirs, and indeed a paper has already been read, though not yet published, on the brec cias of the Skiddaw Slates of the Isle of Man.
