earth Various Strata of
PaIeOzoic Period

A deep boring recently made on the
Thames marshes at Cliffe, Eng. has re-
vealed the interesting fact that the
cretaceous rocks there rest on a floor
of silurian. This. according 10 the
London Globe. is the first record of the
occurrence of these paleozoic strata in
Kent.
The boring was put down to obtain
water from the chalk and lower green
sand. Both supplies. however. were
found to be too salt to be of any
use.
The silurian rocks were reached at
a depth of 1.030 feet. Fossil shells were
found at a depth of 1.063 feet. and
were determined by the paleontolOg-
ical department of the geological sur
vey to be of silurian age.
From a practical point of view this
is of Importance as showing that the
