Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Corals and Bryozoa of the Neozoic Period in New Zealand
Vb. Oamaru or Hutchison's Quarry Beds. - Calcareous strata, sometimes pure limestone, composed of shell fragments, corals, and bryozoa, and evidently a Shallow-water and littoral deposit, associated with basaltic and tufaceous rocks, indicating a period of volcanic activity. As I have previously pointed out, these strata are probably the equivalents of the Table Cape beds of Tasmania.
