Text Appearing Before Image:
C. A. Cotton—Block Mountains in JVew Zealand. 269 northeast, folded, unaltered or but little altered, and more resistant sedimentary rocks form the undermass. The transi- tion from typical greywacke to typical schist is in some places quite sharp. Such junctions in Otago are, perhaps without exception, fault junctions. Along the boundary between the main schist area and the main greywacke area the two types of undermass may be distinguished at a distance of several miles by the details of the relief forms developed on them, and the Fig. 11.
Text Appearing After Image:
Fig. 11. Geologic sketch map of the block mountains associated with Central Otago chain of depressions. (Boundaries after McKay, with slight modifications.) The areas in which schist undermass rocks reach the surface are marked by waved north-south lines, the areas of greywacke (unaltered or little altered) by straight north-south lines, and those in which the overmass forms the surface, or is thinly covered by alluvium, by straight east-west lines. Volcanic rocks of the overmass are shown in black. presence is thus indicated of a mosaic of blocks separated by a system or systems of relatively ancient faults to which the present relief is largely or wholly indifferent. Some of the blocks of the mosaic are too small to be shown on the small- scale maps hitherto published. The relief due to movements on these ancient fault lines (together with that resulting from earlier folding) probably
