FIELD GEOLOGY OF THE SHOALHAVEN DISTRICT (PART 20) CHAPTER 12. The Milton-Ulladulla District The Milton intrusion dominates the geology of this part of the country. Its rich soils lie conveniently close to Ulladulla Harbour and settlers began to arrive here about 1830. However, apart from the country underlain by the Milton Monzonite, the rest of the landscape has changed little since Cook first viewed it in 1770. Apart from the igneous rocks near Milton, The Conjola Formation is dominant in this area. In recent years there has been a revision in the nomenclature of the Formation and it is now known to consist of sediments of widely varying ages, all within the lower Permian. Contrary to earlier ideas, the lower beds are equivalent to the lower part of the Dalwood Group in the Hunter Valley. Some parts of what has been called the Conjola Formation are as young as the lower Maitland Group. Research into this aspect of Shoalhaven district Geology is still in prog...
