| Description: | Thief's Hill is situated on the Burncrooks Pyroclastic Member; tephras, air-fall tuffs and reworked volcaniclastic sediment form this first stage of volcanicity in the Kilpatrick Hills. It was almost simultaneously followed by an eruption of the Auchineden Lavas which are well exposed on Auchineden Hill as eight or nine basalt flows of Jedburgh type totalling 100 metres in thickness. Lateral variation in Lower Carboniferous, Clyde Plateau Volcanic Formation lavas. Lava scarp of Auchineden Hill showing variation in flow thickness and Whangie at left (north) end of scarp. |
