Abstract
Synopsis: Analysis of the sediments recovered from a shallow borehole drilled into the Canna Basin, Sea of the Hebrides, has demonstrated that they are Upper Oligocene (Chattian) non-marine deposits. The basin is the most northerly of the presently known terrestrial Oligocene basins found on the western side of Britain.Keywords
