Struction in the whole of the lands still free from Chaos. Its name was in an older language than any known to those who lived in me current Age of the Young Kingdoms. Only Eiric knew what the name. buy zyban online N. E. (and therefore still unfavourable for our transverse section) the same porphyritic conglomerate formation is prolonged to near the Cuestadel Indio situated at the western end of the basin (like a drained lake) of Yeso. Some way before arriving at this point distant lofty pinnacles capped by coloured strata belonging to the great gypseous formation could first be seen. From the summit of the Cuesta looking southward there is a magnificent sectional view of a mountain-mass at least 2 000 feet in thickness [E] of fine andesite granite (containing much black mica a little chlorite and quartz) which sends great white dikes far into the superincumbent dark-coloured porphyritic conglomerates. At the line ! of junction the two formations are wonderfully interlaced together: in the lower part of the porphyritic conglomerate the stratification has been quite obliterated whilst in the upper part it is very distinct the beds composing the crests of the surrounding mountains being inclined at angles of between 70 and 80 degrees and some being even vertical. On the northern side of the valley there is a great corresponding mass of andesitic granite which is encased by porphyritic conglomerate dipping both on the western and eastern sides at about 80 degrees to west but on the eastern side with the tips of the strata bent in such a manner as to render it probable that the whole mass has been on that side thrown over and inverted. In the valley basin of the Yeso which I estimated at 7 000 feet above the level of the sea we first reach at [F] the gypseous formation. Its thickness is very great. It consists in most parts of snow-white hard compact gypsum which breaks with a saccharine ! fracture having translucent edges; under the blowpipe gives out much vapour; it frequently includes nests and exceedingly thin layers of crystallised blackish carbonate of lime. Large irregularly shaped concretions (externally still exhibiting lines of aqueous deposition) of blackish-grey but sometimes white coarsely and brilliantly crystallised hard anhydrite abound within the common gypsum. Hillocks formed of the hardest and purest varieties of the white gypsum stand up above the surrounding parts and have their surfaces cracked and marked just like newly baked bread. There is much pale brown soft argillaceous gypsum; and there. dawdaw65658567e45ahhwe44885
