The lack of an up to date and readily available geological map and descriptive memoir for the Aberdeen area are deficiencies which have become increasingly significant with the passage of time as the geological investigation of north-east Scotland has progressed. A specimen from a drill hole or temporary exposure is designated thus*. Specimen numbers refer to a comprehensive collection which is stored in the Department of Geology, Aberdeen University. Grid letters are given, however, in references to localities in the northeastern corner of the map lying in the 100 km square NK, or in the southern, part of the map lying in 100 km square metres), but eight-figure (10 metre) references are given for most drill holes. Much of Sheet 77 lies within the area of 100 km National Grid square NJ and grid references for localities within this square are quoted without grid letters.
