Extract

During the summer of 1928 I spent a month making a detailed study of the metamorphic condition of the rocks in the magnificent section displayed along the Banffshire coast and in the immediate hinterland, and this work has been supplemented by examination of a number of rock slices cut from specimens then obtained, and also of those in the collection of the Sedgwick Museum mostly collected by Mr. Harker.
