A scarce geological paper from the 1974 Arab Mineral Wealth Congress, issued by Dr. Soliman Mahmoud Soliman, professor of Geology in Qatar (and previously of Ain Shams University in Cairo), who published prolifically on topics related to oil prospecting. Discusses in 13 pages of English and 9 pages of Arabic a general summary of the geology of Qatar and the effects of this geological history on the distribution of minerals and deposits beyond Qatar's famous petroleum and gas reserves. Soliman stresses that relatively few papers on the overall geology of Qatar had been published by the time of his own research, and contributes an important overview of his own findings. Maps include plans of the major geological surface structures of Qatar and a sketch map of Pleistocene, Miocene, and Eocene rocks.
