Title: Report on Referred Fossils ,  1973 (02/02)
This report covers 6 collections from the McCarthy C-3 quadrangle. One collection contains possible fusulinids (USGS 23559-PC) and 2 collections with corals were sent to C.L. Rowett for study.

The brachiopods are early Permian forms but are not abundant enough to make as positive a correlation as those in Shipment A-73-2. The first 3 collections, however, come from essentially the same locality as 72JP-1 which provides better material for age assignment.

The material is being retained.
