THE GEOLOGY, BY DR. BOASE.

A narrow belt of slate, belonging to the porphyritic series, bounds

this parish on its eastern side, as far south as the village of

Mousehole; it consists for the most part of hard massive and schistose

varieties of compact felspar, occasionally spotted or intimately

blended with actynolite and hornblend, or with some mineral

intermediate between them. The rest of this parish is situated on

granite, exhibiting the same varieties as that of Burian and St.

Levan. At Mousehole the slate and granite may be seen in contact with

each other, the granite occurring as veins in the former rock.

Rochester, before he went.
