In 1977 field work was concerned with the lujavrites and kakortokites of the south-eastern part of the Ilimaussaq alkaline intrusion (see Andersen & Bohse, this report), pegmatites and veins within the intrusion, the Narssaq intrusion situated to the west of the Ilimaussaq intrusion, and the environmental geochemistry and the ecology of the Narssaq region. Preliminary results of the field work and of some of the laboratory investigations are reported below. It should also be mentioned that a diamond drilling programme was carried out in the uraniferous rocks of the Kvanefjeld area in the northern part of the Ilimaussaq intrusion (see Nyegaard, this report).

The 1976 season's field work in the Ilimaussaq region was concemed with the lujavrites of the south-eastem part ofthe Ilimaussaq alkaline intrusion, the uranium-rich rocks along the intrusion's northem contact, the environmental geochemistry and ecology of the Narssaq region, and the Narssaq intrusion situated to the west ofthe Ilimaussaq intrusion. Each of these projects is briefly discussed below.

Geological Magazine

In an article published in the Geological Magazine for August, 1888, an outline was presented of some facts resulting from recent investigations on the glaciation of British Columbia and adjacent regions, bearing more particularly on the flow of ice in a northerly direction brought to light by explorations in the Yukon district, but touching also on the south-eastern extension of the great western glacier-mass of the continent, which I have proposed to name the Cordilleran glacier. Field-work carried out by me during the summer of 1888 has resulted in the accumulation of many new facts relating to the southern part of the area, which was at one time covered by the Cordilleran glacier, from which it would appear that it may ultimately be possible not only to trace the various stages in the recession of the main front of the great confluent glacier beneath which the interior or plateau region of British Columbia was buried, but even to follow the later stages of its decline as it became broken up into numerous local glaciers confined to the valleys of the several mountain ranges which limit the plateau.

The discovery of a coalfield in 1890 at Dover, in a boring at the foot of Shakespeare Cliff, has been already brought before the British Association by the author at Cardiff in 1892, and is so well known that it is unnecessary to enter into details other than the following. The Carboniferous shales and sandstones contain twelve seams of coal, amounting to a total thickness of 23 feet 5 inches. These occur at a depth of 1,100 feet 6 inches below Ordnance datum, and have been penetrated to a depth of 1,064 feet 6 inches, or 2,177 feet 6 inches from the surface. They are identical, as I have shown elsewhere, with the rich and valuable coalfields of Somersetshire on the west, and of France and Belgium on the east

History Of

AbstractThe article outlines the Mongolian influences on the biggest horse race festival in Nagchu prefecture in the Tibetan Autonomous Region (TAR).Since old times these horse races have been closely linked to the worship of the local mountain deity by the patrilineal nomadic clans of the South-Eastern Changthang, the North Tibetan plain. In the seventeenth century the West Mongol chieftain Güüshi Khan shaped the history of Tibet. To support his political claims, he enlarged the horse race festival's size and scale, and had his troops compete in the different horse race and archery competitions in Nagchu. Since then, the winners of the big race are celebrated side by side with the political achievements and claims of the central government in power.

Geological Map

In the 1969 summer season mapping was concentrated in those areas of southern Scoresby Land and northern Jameson Land which had not been visited in 1968 (see Birkelund & Perch-Nielsen, 1969). Mapping was extended westward to the main fault of the post-Caledonian sedimentary basin against the Stauning Alper and to the south as far as 71°10'. The field work was carried out by R. G. Bromley, L. and C. Malmros, K. Perch Nielsen, J. Bruun-Petersen, C. Heinberg, and E. Hjelmar. The preliminary results of the mapping are given in this report together with a geological map at a scale of 1:300 000, compiled from the existing maps (Aellen, in press; Bearth & Wenk, 1959; Callomon, in press; Triimpy & Grasmiick; 1969) and our own observations. Special attention was given to trace fossils by. R. G. Bromley and the heavy mineral assemblages in the Mesozoic sediments by J. Bruun-Petersen.

Theotokou lies at the south-eastern corner of the Magnesian peninsula, a little to the north of the bay of Kato Georgi. The site itself is the seaward end of a narrow valley, where a small brook discharges into a little cove just to the north of a hill called Kastro (Fig. 1). Here there stands a small chapel built in 1807, and dedicated to the Virgin. In the walls of the chapel itself are several ancient blocks, and north and south of it traces of walls are visible. Immediately to the west is a large mass of ruins formerly covered with brushwood; round these stand six fragments of Doric columns, and a seventh lies in a cornfield some distance to the west: an eighth, which was seen here, has disappeared. This place, the traditional site of Sepias, was first visited by a local gentleman, Theódoros Zirghános.

The Lake Frome Embayment Area occupies a position in the southernmost extension of the Great Artesian Basin. It is bounded on the west by the North Flinders limb of the Adelaide Geosyncline and on the east by the Tibooburra Block. It is limited on the south by the Olary Region and the arbitrary northern limits are taken at the south-eastern extension of the Muloorina Gravity Swell.The structural configuration of the area is fault controlled, and is believed to be related to block movements in the basement. A complex of evolved troughs is present. Two major troughs are especially evident, the Bancannia Trough in the east and the Lake Frome Gravity Depression in the west.Remnants of Cambro-Ordovician sediments are preserved on both sides of the Embayment, although outcrop is dominated by rocks of Proterozoic and older age. Devonian sediments are present in the eastern part of the area. Jurassic-Cretaceous sediments related to the Great Artesian Basin sequence are present.
