A collection of rock samples from the Permian deposits in the vicinity of Jervis Bay was made by Messrs. Perry and Dickins during their geological survey of the area in July 1952, with the hope that microfossils may be present to assist in the correlation of the beds with Permian deposits north of Sydney. A detailed examination of the samples is given below. The samples from each locality are arranged in downward stratigraphic sequence.
