Abstract
SOME years have now passed since Mr. Griesbach gave to the Geological Society his paper and map illustrating the geology of Natal and the borders of Zululand. Passing events now give to his investigations the greatest interest, not simply due to the possible light that may be thrown on unsolved, or partly known, problems by the sojourn in that area of the contingent that has lately left our shores, but from the fact that the safety and success of our forces in great measure depends ort the surface contour and physical character of the country to be traversed, which are necessarily directly dependent on its geological structure.
