But it was not observed on some of theother locations round Kerr Lake. The veins so-called, consist of a series of spaces of discis-sion, almost vertical, and which have subsequently been min-eralized for widths which vary from a fraction of an inch totight or nine inches; there are some wider crevices (a series ofseams sometimes extending to a width of nearly six feet) butthe filling is chiefly rock matter, the smaltite and niccoliterarely having a greater width than three to four inches. Pro-fessor W. R. Miller has more specifically described the igneousrocks as breccia-conglomerate and agglomerate with which areinterpolated bands of a silicious rock called by Sir WilliamLogan,Huronian Slate.
