Extract

The rocks which form the subject of this paper were collected by the captain of a whaling vessel belonging to the fleet of Messrs. Salvesen & Co., of Leith, stationed at Leith Harbour, South Georgia. The collection reached me, for description, through the kind offices of Mr. D. Ferguson, Mem. Inst. M.E., who recently visited the island, and who has described its geological features. Two previous collections of rocks from South Georgia have been described by me, one collected by Mr. Ferguson during his visit, the other collected in the same way as the present set.
