To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
— Volcanic Products.
Digitized by Google 176 COMPARATIVE AGES OF ROCKS.
Ordet I. — Basaltic Rocks r Baaalt, Greenstone, Porphyry.
Order II. — Lava. Lava, Pumice.
It will be observed in this classification, that the same formation or kind of rock sometimes occurs more than once, or is arranged under several different classes or or- ders. - Thus limestone is sometimes primitive, at others, transition, secondary, or tertiary; and clay-slate and sand- stone are sometimes associated with one fonpaat...ion, and sometimes with another. When, therefore, a rock, under the same name, is supposed, by its associations, to have been formed at different periods, it is classed severally with those of its own age. Thus limestone is of all ages, and consequently belongs to all the classes, except the volcanic.
The same is more or less the case with sandstone and clay- slate, and several others.
- eOMPARATIVE AGES OF ROCKS.
We have already noticed, under the descriptions of the different formations, their relative ages, but a recapitulation is required in order to bring this subject distinctly before the reader.
