This detailed and carefully argued essay attempts to prove the Neptunist theory of basalt formation. Now discredited, and rejected by Daubuisson later in his career, Neptunism was nevertheless influential into the early nineteenth century, and this 1814 translation provides a fascinating example of the arguments of its proponents.
