ing, and in the southwestern part, overlying the dolerites, 3 = Fault-
line. B = Bíldsfell, G = Gálgagil, Gr = Grenjabrekkur, H — Hrólfs-
hólar, 0 = ÍTlfljótsvatnsbotnar, Þ = Thrasaborgir (summit of Lyngdals-
heiði).

with lava cap, 4 = basalt groups of normal magnetization, 5 = basalt
groups of reverse magnetization, 6 = rhyolite. A = Augastaðahnúkur,
B = Búrfell, Br = Bræðravirki, D = Drangshlíð, F = Fanntófell, G
= Giljahnúkar, II = Hrúðurkarlar, L = Lyklafell, S = Suðurmúli,
