Mr. Kcenig has found it extensively in the sienitic tract of Jeraey?'; s]here blocks of a pudding-stone, bearing some re?.mblance to the green breccia of Egypt, were found to be composed of compact epidote, including very large peb- terrains intermedlaires COClUilller?, formes du g,t,aumaeke-se&istoide? et de piefie e?/e?sire. ?1 �s terrains t?s-s'?eens, compos? c? argile sablonneuse et fes'rug/neuse, avee g?odes de fes' et du bo/s foss//e, ? difi?rens ?s.
