Hobart Town, 13th July, 1878r ·Sm, · I HAVE the honor to furnish you with the following Report upon my last season's work in the vicinity of the West Coast. • The first work I undertook was to make an examination of the country between the Surrey '.Hilis and Mount·Mnrchison, with the view of ascertaining whether or not valuable minerals could ·be found in that locality. · i left Table. Cape on the 5th November and proceeded to Mount Bischoff, where I procured provisioris and made arrangements to pack them out. My party consisted of myself, C. W. Lord, and John Burke; but, unfortunately, Mr. Lord was early in the expedition disabled by a wound in the leg, and was obliged to be conveyed back to Bischoff, thus leaving me with only one assistant.· On the 16th November I established my depot on the south side of Hatfield Plain, close to the south boundary of the Van Diemeri's Land Company. All the provisions were brought up to this Point on pack-horses. Netherby and Hatfield Plains are both large extents of open grassy land ; but, as I could not determine the position of the V.D.L. Co.'s boundary, .I am unable to say how much of them belongs to the Crown.

    A Compilation of Place Names and Their Histories in Tasmania

    LA TROBE: Renamed Latrobe. LACHLAN: A small farming district 6 Km. south of New Norfolk. It is on the Lachlan Road, which runs beside a river of the same name. Sir John Franklin, in 1837, founded the settlement, and used the christian name of Governor Macquarie for the township. LACKRANA: A small rural settlement on Flinders Island. It is 10 Km. due east of Whitemark, over the Darling Range. A district noted for its dairy produce, it is also the centre of the Lackrana Wildlife Sanctuary. LADY BARRON: The main southern town on Flinders Island, 24 Km. south ofWhitemark. Situated in Adelaide Bay, it was named in honour of the wife of a Governor of Tasmania Sir Harry Barron. Places with names, which are very similar often, created confusion. LADY BAY: A small bay on the southern end of DEntrecasteaux Channel, 6 Km. east of Southport. It is almost deserted now except for a few holiday shacks. It was once an important port for the timber industry but there is very little of the wharf today. It has also been known as Lady's Bay. LADY NELSON CREEK: A small creek on the southern side of Dilston, it joins with Coldwater Creek and becomes a tributary of the Tamar River. The creek rises inland, near Underwood, and flows through some good farming country. It was an important freshwater supply in the early days of the colony. LAGOONS: An alternative name for Chain of Lagoons. It is 17 Km. south ofSt.Marys on the Tasman Highway. A geographical description of the inlet, which is named Saltwater Inlet, when the tide goes out it, leaves a "chain of lagoons".

  • The Geology of the West Coast Range of Tasmania

    PAPERS AND PROCE'EDINGS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY 01'''' TASMANIA, VOLUME 88 The Geology of the West Coast Range of Tasmania PART I: STRATIGRAPHY AND METASOMATISM By J. BRADLEY SenioT LedllTer "in Geology at Victoria Unive?"'sity College, FVellington, N.Z. (WITH 4 TEXT FIGURES AND 9 PLATES) ABSTRACT The 'Vest Coast Range is a monadnock mountain chain of Tremadocian and older rocks. The Tremadoc strata were fault angle conglomerates which were crushed in Devonian times between a Cambrian geanticline and the Precambrian core of Tasmania. Cambrian rocks are of spilitic lavas and macigno facies greywackes. The Tremadocian strata are of Flysch and Molasse-like facies. Devonian movement was largely on tbe line of upthrust of the Cambrian geanticline and aiong thIs same line intense metasomatic metanlOrphism dosely followed the Devonian orogeny. The juxtaposition of contemporaneous and later faulting with metamorphislP and volcanic sedimentary and metamorphic breccias, provides interest. The two most interesting problems concern metamorphic contacts which resemble unconformities, and the tectonic history of the area. The phenomena observed ean be welded into a eonsecutive story which is thought to be of world-wide application. INTRODUCTION This study is part of a wider programme of investigation into the mineral bearing region of Western Tasmania. The work, under the aegis of the University of Tasmania, has already resulted in descriptions of the stratigraphy and palaeontology of the Siluro-Devonian strata of the Zeehan district, by Gill and Banks (1950). The Ordovician strata form the subject of another study; this article is concerned with the rocks and structures of the West Coast Range; with rocks which are in general of Cambrian age, unfossiliferous, metamorphosed, and cast in complex forms.
