The relative age of veina in the aame region
11 determined in tho same way aa that of dikes,
via., by tho manner in which they intersect
oach other; the intersecting vein being, of
course, younger than the intersected vein.
The absolute ago of llaauro veins, or the geo
logical period in which the llasure waa formed,
can niilv be determined by the atratiltrd rooks
through which it breaks. The auriferous veins
of California break through the .luraasie; and,
aa there are good reanona for believing that the
Sierrsa won' formed at the end of the .Inraaaio,
it ia probable that theae fissures were formed at
that time, by the foldings of the strata conse
iiuont uion the pushing up ol thia range. Thi
tilling, of course, waa a slow, siibseinent "wra
