Seaham Formation, Six Mile Quarry, Glennies Creek Dam, and Seaham Village. Seaham Village log was redrafted from Sussmilch and David (1919). Sussmilch and David's (1919) “tillites” are assumed to be diamictite, and their “varved shales” are interpreted as rhythmically laminated sandstone and siltstone (see Fig. 4, Table 2). New paleocurrent data collected from limited outcrop exposures of the Seaham Formation at Seaham Village (detailed in Appendix 1) are plotted, but cannot be linked to Sussmilch and David's (1919) measured section.
