journal contribution
posted on 2023-11-22, 09:29 authored by William Frederick Petterd, William Harper TwelvetreesThe following notes lay no claim to be an exhaustive description of our familiar "diabase" or "dolerite" rock, which plays such an important part in the geology and physical configuration of our Island. The present object is rather to place upon record some inferences drawn from the examination of numerous microscopical sections of specimens collected or received from all parts of Tasmania.
