To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In describing the rocks referred to the Cambrian in his recapitulation of the Paleozoic, King^ says : **Thu8 far among the reported occurrences of the rocks of this horizon in the Ck>rdilleras, the locality at the mouth of Big Cottonwood Canyon must remain as the finest example and the stratlgraphlcal type. The lowest member — ^the Cottonwood slates, a group about 800 feet thick, which here rests upon highly metamorphic Archean schists — has thus far yielded no organic forms. The rocks are dark... blue, dark purple, dark olive green and blackish argillites, all highly silicious and as a group sharply defined from the light-colored quartzlte schists which conformably overlie them. This second group, by far the greatest of the whole Cambrian series, is a continuous zone of schists which have a prevailing quartzlte character, though varied with considerable amounts of argillaceous matter. From 8000 to 9000 feet thick, it has a general uniformity of lithologic condition from bottom to top.
