| Summary: | The South Orkneys are a small group of islands situated in the Southern Ocean, in about 62° S. lat. and 45° W. long., roughly 800 miles S.E. of Cape Horn. A single landing was made from the “Scotia “on Saddle Island, a small island on the north side of the group, and another on Coronation Island, the largest and most westerly. With these two exceptions all the rock specimens were obtained on Laurie Island, the most easterly of the group. |
