Abstract

There has been no previous record of volcanic activity in Tasmania
during the period occupied by the deposition of the coal-bearing
rocks of Permian-Triassic age. Certain layers of flinty
rock inter-bedded in the New Town coal measures used to be considered
to be metamorphic products from contact with the intrusive
dolerite.
