The society has a membership of about 600 earth scientists interested in Malaysia and other Southeast Asian regions. The membership is worldwide in distribution.

TEH APRIL 1992 Published in April 1992 by the GEOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF MALAYSIA KUALA LUMPUR This Special Publication is financed by the Society's Publication Fund Printed by Art Printing Works Sdn. Bhd. 29 Jalan Riong 59100 Kuala Lumpur Preface This .Annotated Bibliography ofthe geology of the South China Sea and adjacent parts ofBomeo is an exhaustive list of4120 works. Like the Bibliography and index ofthe Geology ofWest Malaysia and Sirlgapore by D.J. Gobbett (GSM Bulletin No.2, 1968), this volume will pI:ove most useful for students, research workers and oil companies operating in the South China Sea area. The author, Neville S. Haile, was the first geologist to join the newly established Geological Survey Department, British Territories inBomeo in October 1949. At that time the territories of Sarawak, Brunei and British North Bomeo were unmapped geologically and travel was by boat and on foot. Despite that, he took the challenge arid contributed immensely to unravelling the geology of East Malaysia and the offshore shelfareas before taking the post ofHead offiepartmentofGeology at the University of Malaya in 1964, a post he held for 14 years. Even from the distance of Kuala Lumpur, he was able to re-evaluate the geology of Sarawak in tenns of the geosynclinal theory and later the plate tectonic theory. In the mid 70s, he set up the first paleomagnetic laboratory in Southeast Asia and made pioneering measurements from the region. After his retirement from the University of Malaya in 1978, he worked for short periods as a consultant to the UN in Bangkok and then joined Robertson Research in Wales. In 1990, he took up his present position with the Petroleum Research Institute of Petronas, which has enabled him to renew his ties with Malaysia and in particular with the Society.

Malaysia, Bulletin 30, April 1992; pp. 1-90 Annotated bibliography of the geology of the South China Sea and adjacent parts of Borneo Emphasis on publications relevant to Petroleum Geology Compiled and annotated by N. S. HAILE Petroleum Research Institute Petronas (Present address: Coppice Chase, Pwllycrochan Avenue, Colwyn Bay, Clwyd LL29 7BW, UK) INTRODUCTION General The published literature on the South China Sea and Borneo is now extensive, as this list, which is not exhaustive, indicates. Primary geological data and interpretations have appeared in a number of local and international publications, and many of these are now not widely available. Possibly for this reason, a number of more recent papers quote secondary compilation sources rather than the original. I hope that this bibliography may assist in pointing authors to the primary sources. No bibliography as comprehensive as the one attempted here has been published. A good list of regional references is included by Hutchison (1989); Keij (1965c) gave a list of paleontological publications on northwest Borneo, and this was incorporated and much amplified by Hashimoto (1982). An annotated bibliography on the geomorphology of Sabah was given by Wilford (1986a). A comprehensive bibliography of geological investigations in West Kalimantan, including both published and some unpublished records, is being prepared (de Keyser, in preparation). The selection of publications to annotate was made partly on their availability to me. The aim of such annotation is to give the reader a general idea of the contents; space does not permit more than this. Lack of annotation does not imply that the publication is considered less important; many major primary sources of information, such as some of the Memoirs of the Geological Survey Department, are not annotated, as they are too wide ranging for annotation to be useful. 2 N. S.lIAILE For Sarawak and Sabah (and, up to 1962, Brunei), the Annual Reports of the Geological Survey Department, British Territories in Borneo (to 1962) and of Malaysia (1963 onwards) contain a good deal of information in progress reports, much of which has subsequently appeared in Bulletins and Memoirs of the Survey. Short papers in addition to progress reports appeared in these annual reports, and many of the more significant ones are listed here. At some of the conferences of the Southeast Asia Petroleum Exploration Society, printed papers in final form were distributed at the conference, but did not appear in the proceedings; it is doubtful whether such can be considered as published, but some of them are included
