Abstract: "Gravitational observations were made of the pre-Cambrian Coal Creek serpentine mass in Blanco and Gillespie Counties, Texas, the geology of which had been mapped previously.

Probable correlation between the gravitational map and the other geologic features of the area is indicated" (p. 151).
