Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Mesozoic Rocks, in Some of the Coal Explorations in Kent
Except for a few notes on the Palaeozoic rock of doubtful age reached in the Brabourne boring, we have purposely confined our selves to the Mesozoic rocks. The deep-seated Coal Measures, their probable extent and their tectonic relations, have been fully dealt with in numerous papers by Prof. W. Boyd Dawkins, the late R. Etheridge, Mr. W. Whitaker, and othersl. The practical object of the explorations will not, therefore, be directly dis cussed; but as it is mainly upon the thickness and character of the overlying rocks that the success of the colliery enterprises in Kent Will depend, all information regarding these rocks has its practical side.
