- Description
-
Along the Norfolk Southern Railroad approximately 1.25 miles east of Linden, Virginia there are several exposed railroad cuts. The exposed outcrops are Layered Pyrozene Granulite, Mesoproterozoic to Neoproterozic in age and are thought to be country rock, altered during the Grenville orogeny. The outcrop here, which faces almost due north, is severly weatherd, but there are several locations in which metamorphic foliation and gneissic banding are visible. These rocks are part of the Blue Ridge Basement Complex and some of the oldest pieces of Virginia.
