Certain abrupt disturbances of the general uniform attitude suggest differential movements. Along the West branch below Wapus creek the dip and strike of the shale and greywacke are constant, until where the river’s course changes to due east. Along the shores of this stretch the rocks are mostly hidden by swamp, but where they do outcrop they are standing vertically or dipping steeply to the south, and the strike corresponds with the course of the stream; that is, their positions are at right angles to those farther south. Disturbances of this sort are known, due to the contiguity of igneous intrusions, but at this point no such intrusive is known. It will also be seen from the map that exactly in the same line the East branch makes a similar abrupt change in course. Whether a line of low relief is continuous across the interval between the two streams at this point is not easily determined; however, as a possible explanation of the conditions stated, faulting along this line is suggested. A similar abrupt change from conditions of approximate horizontality to a dip S. 60 W., < 80° and strike of S. 30° E. was noted on the west side of Firth lake. _Relations to other Formations._ The intrusion of the quartz diabase into the Huronian was gently accomplished at most points, and the beds of the latter, both above and below the intrusives, are inclined only a few degrees more steeply than in localities where no diabase can be found. Evidence of intrusion, however, is common, and at some points the Huronian next to the diabase has suffered local but intense physical change. Near the middle of the east shore of Firth lake a rocky islet only a few square yards in extent consists of coarse diabase and conglomerate in intimate contact, little tongues of the former being protruded into the sedimentary rock and peripherally chilled. Most remarkable, however, is the change in condition of the conglomerate; a few chains away on the main shore it is of ordinary character, but on the islet the pebbles lie within a fairly well foliated schist, standing vertically and striking about east and west. An identical condition exists at the south end of a little pond lying 40 chains west of Mosher lake. The vertical foliation of the conglomerate suggests the neighbouring diabase intrusion to have been by vertical ascension rather than lateral spread, so that these points may represent portions of vents through which the diabase magma ascended, and for that reason are more affected than where sills have been quietly injected.
