Abstract
The sequence at Mt St Mary has been described as uninterrupted with a transition from schist to sedimentary rocks of Kaihikuan age. The schist is shown to be separated from the sedimentary rocks by a fault for which the St Mary Fault is proposed. Consequently the age of the beds metamorphosed to schist may be appreciably older than Kaihikuan.Keywords
