As this limestone stretches right across the AtlanticPacific watershed between Cartago and San Jose, it yields clear evidence of an inter-oceanic connexion in this area in Tertiary times. Of the igneous rocks, the most interesting feature is the presence of many boulders of monzonite, indicating a plutonic mass...
