Summary:
A geologic field survey of the limestone islands among the Palau Islands was made in order to obtain a description of the islands and the rocks that compose them, to determine the age of the rocks, to develop a geologic history for the islands, to note and attempt to find an explanation for any unusual features in the geology of the islands, and to evaluate the mineral and water resources. Each island was visited by boat, explored, and mapped geologically. Collections of rock and fossils were made wherever specimens would be of significance. These were examined by the writer, and, when appropriate, sent to specialists for identification and study.
