Description:Excerpt from Memoirs of the Geological Survey of India, 1869, Vol. 6 The Sixth Volume of The Memoirs of the Geologigal Survey of India now issued will be found to contain papers descriptive of large areas of country in different parts of India. These relate chiefly to Western India but there are also detailed descriptions and maps of two of the smaller detached Coal-fields of Bengal. Full osteological details are also given of the interesting remains of Frogs long known to Geologists as occurring near Bombay; and of which the Survey has been fortunate in obtaining some well preserved specimens recently exposed by engineering works undertaken in that locality for reclamation purposes. The present Volume gives a description of the Geological Structure of about sixty thousand square miles of country, - an area larger than that of all England and Wales. It is not intended to convey the idea that our examination of this immense area has been sufficiently detailed or dose to justify its being considered final - (this would have been impossible within the time which has been devoted to it), - but I believe that this examination has been carried out as carefully, and recorded in as Ml detail, as was practicable with the very imperfect topographical maps which we had at our disposal. The nature and value of these will be found noticed in the several papers, now published. The structure of quite as extensive an area of country adjoining that herein described will be noticed in the next volume of the Memoirs, now in preparation.
