twoad and ar often happens schist
•may grade into some other rock
sc that nc hard and fast line car.
de drawr. between schists and
gneisses and some slates or quartz
I ltes
Quartz is the most frequent anc
abundantly occurring constituent
with locally mica chlorite, horn
blende and graphite.
The schist or Black Top, which
stains the hands when handled,
if a graphitic variety. Mica schist
of both biotite and muscovite.
;(the black and while variety),
are found practically al! over the
Peninsula The white mica, mus
covite. being the more common.
if you want to be reel technical
you car call that weathered yell
owish w’hue variety, a seriate
schist
Chlorite schists are usually
some shade of green, while horn
o.ende schists vary from greer.
tc> black Ar. easy way to classi
fy this group is to include it all
under the term. Greenstone schist
All schists are alike structural
ly in having more or less pro
nounced foliation Therefore they
will all split readily in the dir
ection of the foliation, and with
nx>:e or less difficulty and often
w ith irregular surfaces at right
angles to the schistosity,
Ir the common mica variety
found ir. this vicinity- the quartz
if often distributed through the
rock ir the form of eyes, or small
lenses about which the mica fol
ii are wrapped When these rocks
are split along the direction of
foliation an uneven or lumpy sur
face is shown
Tile relationship between the
schis- and limestone as locally
found here, and the mineraliza
tion along the contact and in the
joint planes in the vicinity of the
contact will be explained in a
later Crucible.

me before you leave for the Out
t-ide. Get your work on record
and help the -miners in your part
