Paleontology and geology

Although this map shows no Cambrian rocks in New Hampshire, there are some rocks in the eastern part of the state that may be Cambrian in age. Because these rocks have been highly metamorphosed, it is difficult to determine when the rocks were originally formed. There are no fossils in these rocks.
