'Copy of a Report to the Bombay Government on Lithographic Limestone from the South-East Coast of Arabia', written by H.J. Carter, Assistant Surgeon, in which he describes the limestone ridge on the eastern coast which runs in a north-east direction as they approached the south-western half of the Kuria Muria Bay. This forms mountains near the coast with a tableland inland. Carter writes his description to send with some specimens and describes from where he took the specimens. He also writes about the people who inhabit the region.
