MURCHISON ON THE STRUCTURE OF THE ALPS.
193
S.S.E.
In following our formation into the valley which extends from Brun-
nen to Schwyz, on the eastern shores of the lake of Lucerne, we found
that the intermediate succession between the neocomian and the
flysch became much more regular and distinct. Situated between
the Rigi (that grand accumulation of nagelflue and molasse) on the
one side, and the great masses of contorted secondary rocks of Altorf
on the other, the valley extending from Brunnen to Sewen and Schwyz
is another of these troughs, the sides of which are composed of the
secondary limestone, dipping, on both banks of the river, under the
nummulitic and shelly deposits. On the northern side the sym-
metrical order of succession is very clear, as exhibited in this dia-
gram (fig. 11). Commencing the ascending section on the edge of

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
