Digitized by Google 103 There is no doubt about the (Tuptive origin of tmchyte. It even presents the aspect of volcanic lavn, and this term lias been applied to it in Washoe. The mode of occurrence shows tliat it has been ejected through long fiesures, in a viscous or liquid state and at a high temperature. In some places the eruptions were subaqueous, as in the vicinity of Dayton. The entire table-land around that place is built up of stratified trachytic tufa. The solid trachyte rises from it... in rugged mountains, which form an elevated and very conspicuous range, passing east of the Gould and Ourry Mill, across Seven-Mile Canon, (where, for instance, the Sugar-Loaf Peak consists of it) and bending in a semi- circle round to Washoe Lake. Pleasant Valley is entirely surrounded by trachytic hills; and farther north, this rock 'covers the country to great extent. Sanidin-trachyte has never been found to contain silver-bearing veins; and in Washoe none occur in it, and yet it has evidently been mainly instrumental in the formation of the Comstock Lode and other veins in that region.
