V. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS 



Three diverse geomagnetic trends are exhibited in this detailed 

 geomagnetic survey off the southern Bahama Islands. One of these 

 extensive lineations, striking N74°W, agrees with some of the 

 structural trends of the Antilles. Perhaps because of the depth of 

 burial of its source, the anomaly shows no definite correlation with the 

 bathymetry in the survey area. 



The N50°W strike of a second magnetic trend is reflected in the 

 lineations of bathymetric features in the survey area, and also by the 

 trend of the southern Bahamas Islands. 



The third trend is formed by a series of parallel, linear magnetic 

 features striking N31°E. This trend is paralleled by a linear arrange- 

 ment of bathymetric features in the center of the survey area. 



These three magnetic lineations may indicate that this area is 

 the focus of three major fault zones.
