Excerpt from Notes on the Northern Black Hills of South DakotaThe Cambrian is represented only by the Potsdam and rests unconformably on the Archean schists. NO Silurian or Devonian is found, and the. Potsdam and Carboniferous are conformable. The great deposits are of Archean age and yield mainly auriferous pyrite. There are sometimes lenticular and seemingly inde pendent masses of the slate and schist series sharing the folds and contortions and having a columnar cleavage coincident with the bedding. The porphyry ¿owed over the Potsdam east of Deadwood and under that in the Homestake to the west, lifting it like a laccolite. The gold was deposited by chemical action after having been segregated.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
