Olivine basalt, differing from the oceanic type by its low alkali content, fragments of volcanic glass, and an odd type of breccia, at the base of the sedimentary section, that was produced by a landslide followed by downslope creep and flow of suspended material are shown to be expressions of a submarine volcanic eruption younger than the local accumulation of foraminiferal silts. Growth of foraminifera is believed to be stimulated, in places, by warmth emanating from the volcanic hearth. |
