Abstract
This report is based on 185 gravity and magnetic stations established over the Cortlandt Complex and contiguous areas. The total area of the survey is approximately 75 square miles. The Complex consists of a group of basic igneous rocks near Peekskill, New York, in a region of granitic rocks and lower Paleozoic sediments.
