The Igneous rock containing this Garnet as a constant accessory constituent, occurs as an outcrop about 6 feet wide on the beach between Port Cygnet and Lymington.<br>It is intruded between other volcanic rocks, and, as far as could be ascertained from a hasty examination, seems to be the only exposure in this locality. From fossils found it is probably contemporaneous with the Permo- Carboniferous sediments.
