The samples from Margaret Bay were collected by H.B. Owen during a recent visit to the northern coast of Australia. The collection was made with the hope that microfossils may be found in the rocks which were collected from a twenty foot section exposed at Margaret Bay. The results of the micropalaeontological examination are discussed herein.
