Abstract
During the period November 18, 1963 to December 3, 1963 the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico performed a gravity survey of the Tertiary sedimentary basin which is located along the south coast of Puerto Rico in the vicinity of Ponce. The project was initiated at the request of Mr. Carlos Vincenty, Director, Department of Industrial Research, Economic Development Administration of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. The purpose of the survey was to obtain information on the configuration arid structure of the basin and if possible, to locate areas which might be favorable for the accumulation of oil or gas. The accompanying index map (fig. 1) shows the survey area together with the outline of the border of the basin.
