dc.description.abstractThe Silurian Gasport dolomite member was studied in the Hamilton area. In spite of the mask ing effect of dolomitization, the stratigraphic re lations and results of petrographic and sedimentalogi- cal examination suggest that the depositional locus was that of a shelf or bank. A thin layer of jarosite was observed; further study may show this layer to have important stratigraphic time value.en_US
