In the following report thirteen rock specimens from the Soldiers Cap area are petrographically described. The specimens were sent in for examination by R.A. Searl. Fifteen specimens are listed in his covering memorandum, but only thirteen were received; specimens with Nos. 4749 and 4805 did not arrive. Some of these rocks present problems in petrogenesis. To solve these problems more detailed collections will have to be made; such collecting should preferably be done by a petrologist in co-operation with the field geologists.
