A report is given on the geological investigations carried out by geologists from the Pre-Quaternary Department (= Dep. for Subsurface Geology) of the Geological Survey of Denmark on occasion of the oil test well "Rønde No. l". This boring was made by "Dansk Undergrunds Consortium" in the peninsula of Djursland, Denmark, during the period from Oct. 1965 to July 1966.Beds of Pleistocene, Tertiary, Upper Cretaceous, Lower Cretaceous, Jurassic, Triassic, and Upper Silurian age were penetrated, when the operations stopped at a depth of 17389' or 5300 m below Kelly Bushing.Nine authors describe in a total of 15 articles the lithology and biostratigraphy of the drilled section. An introductory article presents an outline of the complete geological profile and summarizes the technical and administrative data of the well.

The book contains geological and geophysical reports on the deep test well Nøvling No. 1. This boring was made by "Dansk Undergrunds Consortium" in Central Jutland 1966.Beds of Pleistocene, Tertiary, Upper Cretaceous, Lower Cretaceous, Jurassic, Triassic, Upper Permian and Upper Silurian age were penetrated. The final depth of the boring was 12342' or 3762 m below the Kelly Bushing.The book includes 17 articles written by 12 authors, all of whom are (or were) from the staff of the Pre-Quaternary Department (= Dep. of Subsurface Geology) of the Geological Survey of Denmark. In an introductory article a review is given of the geological and structural aspects of the boring together with an outline of the technical and administrative data.

As part of studies of the onshore hydrocarbon potential in East Greenland undertaken by the Geological Survey of Greenland (GGU), a project was initiated with the purpose of describing the dinoflagellate cyst stratigraphy of the Lower Cretaceous succession in East Greenland (72°76°N) and correlating the exposed sections throughout the region (Nøhr-Hansen, 1993). Based on the rather sporadic occurrence of macrofossils the Lower Cretaceous sediments of East Greenland was previously dated as Aptian to Albian (Spath, 1946; Maync, 1949; Donovan, 1953, 1955, 1957). Maync (1949) reported the total exposed thickness of the ‘Aptian-Albian series’ to be more than 2000 m, whereas Surlyk (1990) noted that the Lower Cretaceous shale succession reached a cumulative thickness or 1000 m. Furthermore, Donovan (1972) reported that Hauterivian and Barremian sediments were unknown in East Greenland. Dinoflagellate cysts recorded from 40 sections throughout the region have now dated the Lower Cretaceous sequence as Barremian to Albian, and correlation of sections yields a cumulative thickness of approximately 1500m (Nøhr-Hansen, 1993).

Until recently no outcrop of the Vectian or Lower Greensand was known to occur between Lulworth on the coast of Dorset and the neighbourhood of Devizes in Wiltshire. It was supposed that, with the exception of a small area of Wealden in the Vale of Wardour, the whole of the Lower Cretaceous Series in Dorset and South Wilts was concealed and buried beneath the overlapping Upper Cretaceous strata. A recent examination of this district however has revealed two areas where the Vectian sands emerge from beneath the Gault. One of these has already been indicated in the pages of the Geological Magazine; the other is the subject of the present communication.

Raymond Casey was an internationally recognized expert in two entirely different fields—geology and philately. He achieved this despite leaving school at 14. By then he was already collecting and studying fossils from his home town, Folkestone, and in 1939, despite not having a degree, he obtained a post with the Geological Survey of Great Britain in the modest role of assistant to C. J. Stubblefield. After war-time service in the RAF, he returned to the Survey in a similar role, but spent much of his ‘spare time’ researching and publishing on Lower Cretaceous palaeontology and stratigraphy. His fortunes began to change when, at the age of 38, he was admitted to Reading University to study for a doctorate. His thesis on Lower Greensand stratigraphy and palaeontology was recognized as an outstanding study that led to major publications including a nine-part monograph of the ammonite faunas. Then, in the late 1950s, he also began to study faunas from Jurassic–Cretaceous boundary beds in eastern England as part of his official work and this led to him visiting the Soviet Union on several occasions from 1963 onward. On the first visit he met the academician Nalivkin in Leningrad, who, as well as being an eminent geologist, was a keen philatelist. This led to Raymond taking an enthusiastic interest in pre-revolutionary Russian postal history, which resulted in numerous publications and awards and, after his retirement, became his main focus of interest.

In 1885 Dr. C. A. White, F.C.G.S., Palæontologist to the U.S. Geological Survey, supplied me with some of the siliceous residue of a limestone belonging to the freshwater Jurassic Atlantosaurus-beds in Colorado, from which several casts of small Ostracoda were figured and described in the GEOLOGICAL MAGAZINE, Dec. III. Vol. III. April, 1886, pp. 145–8, Pl. IV. Since that time Dr. White has kindly sent me somewhat similar material, obtained in like manner, by dissolving in dilute acid pieces of an impure limestone, which lies at the base of the Upper Cretaceous Series, from Cokeville, a hamlet in South-Western Wyoming, and belongs to the Bear-River Formation. The Ostracoda selected are figured in Plate XV. Figs. 1–9, 11–13, and 15. These casts represent the whole carapace in many if not all instances.

Abstract The limestone dorsal of the northern part of the Rif mountains near Tetuan, Morocco, exposes Permian clastics, Triassic dolomite, Jurassic and lower Cretaceous limestone, upper Cretaceous to Eocene marl, transgressive upper Eocene conglomerate, and Oligocene flysch. The microfauna of the upper Cretaceous and the Paleogene formations are particularly useful in correlations. Major tectonic movements occurred in the Miocene.
