The Chilean scientific Base, Gabriel Gonzalez Videla, is located at 64° 49′ 24″ South, 62° 51′ 7″ West on the Danco Coast at the north end of the “Antarctic” Peninsula. The Base is situated on two small islands: Lomnitz and Dott (approx. 18,000 square metres), The two islands are separated by a very narrow channel partly filled with morainal material. The northern island is named Isla “Lomnitz” and the southern island, Isla “Dott”. Between the islands and the mainland is a 90-metre channel, which is dry at low tide. This channel and the eastern shores of the islands are covered by till.
Isla Util, a small island in the Gerlache Strait, lies 7 miles north of the base.
Field work was done during the 1960-61 austral summer, and 70 
thin sections of the rocks collected were studied subsequently at the University of Wisconsin.
