    Description: The results are discussed of a geophysical survey undertaken by R.R.S. Discovery II early in 1962 in an area centred on 29° 15'N, 25° 5'W at the western extremity of the Madeira-Cape Verde Abyssal Plain. Seismic investigations show that the sediments are underlain by an intermediate layer about 2 km in thickness of velocity 4.1-5.4 km/sec which overlies a deep layer 5.2-km thick of velocity 6.3-6.8 km/sec. Refracted arrivals on the longest seismic line give a depth of 13.2 km to the M discontinuity. Magnetic results indicate that the topography of the abyssal hills in the western part of the area is probably continued eastwards as sub-bottom relief beneath the sediments of the abyssal plain. They also support the hypothesis that the intermediate seismic layer (layer 2) is composed predominantly of volcanic rocks. Examination of a well-defined magnetic anomaly over one topographic feature ("The Madcap Volcano") shows it to be composed of magnetized rocks (I = 8.4 × 10**-3 e.m.u./cm**3) having a direction of magnetization which points upwards at 25° with an azimuth of 305°. Measurements at ten heat flow stations show that the average geothermal flux in this region is 1.20 (±0.11) µcal/cm**2/sec.

    Description: During the cruise of the" Mabahiss" from Zanzibar to Colombo at Station 133 (1° 25' 54" S. to 1° 19' 42" S. and 66° 34' 12" E. to 66° 35' 18" E.) several small rock fragments were brought up in the Monegasque net; and, since at this position there is no possibility of the material being transferred by floating Ice, these specimens are of some interest as samples of oceanic rock foundations. All the rocks have a black appearance, but in the majority this skin is of negligible thickness. Exceptionally, however, it may attain to 1/3 in. (St. 133, 8), and then the specimens are rounded. The coating is made of dark opaque manganese material. At Station 166 one or two similar specimens of angular basalt were found in the trawl consisting mainly of manganese nodules.
