Description
Excerpt from Geology of Mongolia: A Reconnaissance Report Based on the Investigations of the Years 1922-1923
This reconnaissance is put forward as a step in the unraveling of the geology of Central Asia. We recognize its incompleteness and its many unsolved problems, yet we are confident that it is based upon true lines with respect to structure and historic succession, and that it ought to serve a use ful purpose as a background for additional exploratory investigations.
Many problems have presented themselves as the work has proceeded. It is hoped that some of them may be given further study. Data already in hand bear on problems that have not been discussed in this report but are expected to yield results on laboratory investigation. There are yet other problems which cannot be solved except by additional field work of a detailed and extended nature. In so far as future work makes it possible, we hope to present these in succeeding volumes as opportunity may arise.
