Collection of reports with various titles originally issued 1882-1913, reissued 1917-1918 and serving as addenda to the book entitled Geological survey of Newfoundland (published 1881). Authors of the reprinted reports were Alexander Murray and James P. Howley.

A detailed description of Newfoundland's geological features and resources for the years 1839 and 1840, this book also includes a brief overview of the surveyor's responsibilities in conducting surveys and of the methods used.

Excerpt from Geological Survey of Newfoundland My intention at one time was to condense the history of this investigation into a single work, illustrated by sundry characteristic scenes, a small-scale general geological map and sections, and drawings of typical fossils, explanatory of the views expressed in the text; but the difficulties in the way of preparing such a work, in such form as to do justice to the subject, are so great, that many months, perhaps years, might elapse before it could be completed and I have consequently resorted to the only ready alternative, in order to establish a record of the proceedings of the survey, as a means of saving the results of many years' labour from being alto gether lost or forgotten.
