This thesis is based on a detailed investigation into the distribution, mode of formation and original source of the sand and gravel deposits located in the vicinity of the four Monteregian hills (St. Bruno, St. Hilaire, Rougemont, Johnson) lying immediately to the east and south east of Montreal. Prior to this investigation no detailed work on the mode of formation and possible source of the gravels and sands had been carried out, although McGerrigle (1936) had mapped the distribution of the deposits on a scale of 1"-4 miles. In the Montreal area, Byers (1933) carried out a similar investigation laying particular stress on the mode of formation of the deposits rather than on the possible source of the sands and gravels.
