Abstract/Summary

An extensive pumice raft was encountered by H.M.S. Protector in the area of the South Sandwich Islands on the 14th March, 1962. Evidence is presented which suggests that this material was ejected on the 5th March, 1962, from a submarine eruptive centre 35 miles to the north-west of the existing islands but on the axis of the South Sandwich Arc.
