content: L-1563 (South Mountain Metarhyolite)

content: South Mountain Metarhyolite is also known as Catoctin, Caledonia, Caledonia Rhyolite, Gettysburg Rhyolite, South Mountain, or South Mountain Rhyolite. It is a blue, blue banded, or red/lavender metarhyolite. It can be mottled with black bands, streaks, or patches 1-4 cm wide. There is insignificant color change when heat-treated. When weathered some types develop a patina, others do not. It has multicolored phenocrysts of quartz and feldspar. It has a coarse to fine grained texture. Deposits include outcrops of bedrock, boulder fields often associated with outcrops or without them, streambed cobbles, and terrace deposits.

content: Geology remarks: Epoch- Precambrian, Form- Catoctin

content: Location remarks: Blue Ridge province of Maryland and Pennsylvania; Ten locations of South Mountain Metarhyolite are listed on page 7 by Stewart (1984); Cashtown Gap, Franklin Township, Adams County, PA.

THIS STRIP IS BENT IN THE SHAPE OF A TRUNCATED CONE, AND ONE END CUT, ARROW-SHAPED, IS THRUST THROUGH A TRIANGLE CUP IN THE OTHER END AND TANGLED. THIS TYPE IS CONFINED TO BRISTOL BAY." ILLUS.

content: Ledger book says there were originally 4, and catalog card says that 3 were exchanged, but 2 remain in the collection. Seems likely that there is some confusion with scrapers in E55910.
