. The commonwealth of Australia; federal handbook, prepared in connection with the eighty-fourth meeting of the British association for the advancement of science, held in Australia, August, 1914 . CNElSSlCCRAMITE \ \. by a thick series of crystalline schists in a broad belt of country from Wodonga and Tallangatta, through Omeo and Tongio West inNorth-east Victoria. Other areas occur in Victoria south of Mount Stavelyand in the basin of the G-lenelg River. In Tasmania, a well-marked beltof mica-schist and white saccharoidal quartzite, and a very interesting beltof zoisite-amphibolite, are ascribed to this group. With the exception ofthe last-mentioned rock, all the Pre-Cambrian rocks of Tasmania appearto have been of sedimentary origin, and should therefore be referred to theAlgonkian system. In Western Australia, the group is divisible into twoportions, or we may say that two groups are present: Firstly, an olderform of gneisses and acidic schists with intrusive granite and pegmatiteveins with numerous dykes of diorite, norite, dolerite, etc. Secondly, Algon-kian rocks formed of coarse conglomerates together with, in places, alteredvolcanic tuffs and amygdaloidal dolerites, the lat
