Provenance (geology) to determine the origin of sediments. This is often used in conjunction with the study of exhumation histories, interpretation of drainage networks and their evolution, and forward-modelling of paleo-earth systems. In combination, these help to characterise the "source to sink" journey of clastic sediments from hinterland to sedimentary basin. Provenance (from the French provenir, "to come from"), is the place of origin or earliest known history of something. In geology (specifically, in sedimentary petrology), the term provenance deals with the question where sediments originate from. The purpose of sedimentary provenance studies is to reconstruct and to interpret the history of
Linstead to New Works railway the Spanish Town to Ewarton line would have been north of the Rio Magno Gully Bridge (~75m) and there are no other significant water courses between Linstead and New Works. Linstead to New Works railway The Linstead to New Works railway was a railway in Jamaica constructed in 1921 to serve a citrus growing region to the north east of Linstead. Linstead is at 400 feet while New Works is close below the 500 foot contour, so the line must have risen around 79 feet in its three miles for an average gradient of 1 in 200 or thereabouts. There
