| Abstract/Notes | One of the first features that will probably strike a geological observer in Jamaica is the extent and thickness of the great covering series of White Limestones. This series, which as Sawkins wrote in 1865, cannot be less than 2,000 feet in thickness, impresses one with the evident magnitude of the duration of the Tertiary period; especially when one reflects that it represents only a portion of the Tertiary, probably inclusively from the Upper Eocene to the Lower Miocene. Equally formidable though less conspicuous thicknesses of early Tertiary beds which underlie the White Limestones, namely, the Yellow Limestones and the Richmond beds or Carbonaceous Shale, represent the middle and basal Eocene. |
