Abstract/NotesIn a paper published in 1929 on “The Basal Complex of Jamaica, with Special Reference to the Kingston District” (Matley, 1929, 440–92) I gave an account of the nature and structural relationships of a complex of rocks consisting partly of plutonic rocks (granodiorite and serpentines) and partly of metamorphosed igneous and sedimentary rocks, now chiefly in the condition of amphibolites, hornblende- and chlorite-schists, quartz-sericiteschists, and marbles. The paper, which contained an important Appendix by F. Higham on the petrography, presented the results of many months' arduous work in the field, including the detailed mapping of the Kingston District, for which a good contoured map as available on the scale of 2½ inches to the mile. The geology of the area is so difficult that, in my opinion, the only way of arriving at sound conclusions is by adequate field-mapping.
