FAUNA OP TIIK DKVOMAN PLANT-nKDS OP ST JOHN. 529 " At all the above named localities, the rocks arc certainly mombcrs of the upper division of the Little llivcr group. In those which follow, the beds are probably portions of the same scries, but, as expressed in the remarks on the characters of this group, their position has not been ascertained with al)soliitc certainty. " (/.) IJlackwood Block, Albert County. I am informed by Mr Matthew, that in this district, and near the lake wliieh forms the source of one of the branches of the Sahnon llivcr, copper has recently been found by Mr C F. Keans of St John. " The latter gentleman observed some veins, and numerous boulders of quartz on the hillsides about the lake, as well as felspar, mica (silvery gray and black), hornblende, actinolite, and chlorite. The copper was observed in a ledge of hard gray metamorphic slate, on the north side of the lake, filling seams in the rock, and is a green carbonate, not the original ore. The accompanying rocks are described as paler and coarser slates, some of the hitter having an ash-like aspect (vol- canic ?), and reddish felsite. All of these rocks arc similar to those occurring in the Corduitc shales, or cupriferous band of the coast.
