OverviewExcerpt from Reports of Geological Explorations During 1871-72: With Maps and Sections The next rocks in age, porphyry conglomerate, have also resisted very well the erosive action, but the brown coal beds lying upon them would have been greatly destroyed, had not in the first place a thick bed of Shell sandstone or limestone, often consisting almost entirely of shells, formed a protective cover over them. This limestone generally forms a ridge running in the direction of the strike of the beds. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
