R Van Hise and C. K. Leith for publi-cation in a final general monograph on Lake Superior geology in preparation forthe U. S. Geological Survey. GEOLOGY OF LAKE SUPERIOR IRON-BEARING SERIES. 105 The ore-bearing districts themselves, comprising but a smallportion of the Lake Superior region as a whole, are the areasin which the fullest successions of pre-Cambrian rocks are ex-posed ; the intervening areas are less well-known. It has beenpossible to correlate, with reasonable certainty, the major units, although the geology of each of the districts hasbeen worked out in large part independently; but because ofthe considerable, less well-known areas separating the closelystudied districts, it is difficult at the present time completely tounify the geology of the region
