The Woodstook and Millville areas are in the continuation of the New England Province of the Northern Appalachians. The oldest exposed rocks are sedimentary and are presumed to be Ordovician in age. Overlying these are Silurian sediments, which contain the iron and manganese deposits of the Woodstook area. The Ordovician and Silurian sediments indicate deposition in an unstable marine geosynclinal environment. Granite and allied rocks intruded the Silurian and older strata during the Devonian period.
