Excerpt from Pre-Cambrian Rocks of South-East Newfoundland: A Dissertation, Presented to the Faculty of Princeton University Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, April, 1916

The following paper gives the more important results of an investigation based upon field work carried on during the summers of 1913 and 1914.

Southeastern Newfoundland is important geologically. In that it affords, as far as is known, the most complete section of the later pre-cambrian rocks along the eastern coast of North America, and an understanding of this section should aid in the correlation of the later pre-cambrian at other localities. The term later pre-cambrian, as here used, is possibly the equivalent of the terms Proterozoic or Algonkian.
