The University of Texas at Austin Institute for Geophysics (UTIG) is offering an original and unique atlas on the geology of Cuba. Including well and seismic information, the atlas, prepared by UTIG, is an organized, comprehensive report (47 pages) with sections on gravity, magnetics and petroleum geology and hydrocarbon potential. This large-formatted (20" x 30" sheets), full-color atlas contains fully annotated maps outlining the geology and geophysics of Cuba, including maps describing the hydrocarbon potential of the island. A digital version of the atlas on CD is provided with purchase. The University of Texas at Austin Institute for Geophysics is offering the atlas for $15,000 US.
