In Sanskrit, on the contrary, the most essential parts of the two component elements are gone, and what remains is a kind of metamorphic agglomerate which cannot be understood without a most minute microscopic analysis.
The liquor in the lower vat must be strongly beaten for an hour and a half, when the indigo begins toagglomerate in flocks, and to precipitate.
This represents an old “volcanic neck” of agglomerate rising out of the tuffs that are exposed on its slopes to an elevation of about 600 feet.
Their variation, however, is more consistent with the characters of an agglomerate formed by marine erosion.
Mr. Horne refers to seams or layers of coral limestone occurring in the volcanic agglomerate of the coast cliffs between Lambasa and Tutu Island.
Huge masses of agglomerate are exposed in the lower third of the hill marked “470 feet” in the chart, and immediately north of the town.
They issue copiously from the volcanic agglomerate at a temperature of 161° F.
Both beds pass gradually into the underlying agglomerate; but their upper limits are well defined and the agglomerate commences abruptly.
The diorite forming blocks in theagglomerate of the coast cliffs, west of the Salt Lake Passage, is a remarkable rock showing large blackish hornblende crystals, in the shape of blades 25 mm.
By clambering up the steep slope on the south side of these cliffs, it will be observed that this thick bed of agglomerate is covered by bedded foraminiferous clays and tuffs similar to those that underlie it.
Similar exposures, displayed by cliffs of basicagglomerate with submarine tuffs and clays at their base, are common on the mountain-slopes of other parts of the island.
As a suggestive instance of the formation of palagonite “in situ,” I will now refer to a basic tuff-agglomerate on the plateau of Na Savu (see p.
This last-named rock is exposed in bulk in the upper part, but on the summit the agglomerate reappears.
Nowhere in Antrim is there such a display of volcanic ash and agglomerateas at this spot.
Two steps are therefore necessary to the formation of rain: the transparent aqueous vapor in the air must be condensed into clouds, and the material of the clouds must agglomerate into raindrops.
It must, however, be added that the laws under which the impalpable particles of water in cloudsagglomerate into drops of rain are not yet understood, and that opinions differ on this subject.
Had an interesting talk with Taylor on agglomerate and basaltic dykes of Castle Rock.
The rock of the Cape consists mainly of volcanic agglomerate with olivine kenyte; it is much weathered and the destruction had formed quantities of coarse sand.
These agglomerate blocks, however prepared, are placed in glass or porcelain containing vessels, as shown in Fig.
During the gradual heating, or baking, which lasts about two hours, what remains of the water in the agglomerate is driven off; then come the more volatile oils contained in the pitch, and finally the sulphur.
The following are some of the compositions used in the manufacture of agglomerate blocks:-- No.
We spared no pains in seeking further evidence; both in the caves and in other parts of the agglomerate in which they were excavated, we diligently looked for something to throw light upon the subject.
Let this be as it may, we found nothing of any value in the agglomerate in which the Egyptians had excavated.
Gibraltar is thus seen to be composed of interbedded lavas and pyroclastics, and on the Wedge a similar alternation is several times repeated, a pink agglomerate being exceptionally striking in appearance.
Here and there a sort of pudding stone or agglomerate was observed, which in some instances might represent a sedimentary deposit, but which here had clearly an igneous origin.
Rocks of an agglomerate type are well shown in the walls of Gibraltar.
