I.—On Dikes of Oligocene Sandstone in the Neocomian Clays of the District of Alatyr, in Russia
The part of the province of Simbrisk lying to the north of Alatyr, in the angle between the Soura and the Alatyr rivers, is formed of Lower Cretaceous strata, chiefly Neocomian clays, covered by Boulder-clay (which is not rich in boulders), and part by Glacial and Æolian sands. The same Neocomian cl...
