Australia. Having conglomerated these notes, Jukes was able to sketch what he interpreted as the outline of
Australian geology. While doing this, Jukes concluded that Australia was the very land of uniformity and monotony, its structure largely unbroken; that mountain ranges and rock formations would monotonously stretch out for miles, without change of characteristics or interruption in formation. He also concluded that, despite apparent consistency in geological formation, Australian soil and land was wealthy in minerals, and he formerly advised the

Among the more notable things detailed in this volume is the chapter on the Great Barrier Reef; the writings contained therein described as an early classic of Australian geology. The evidence gathered by Jukes on the Great Barrier Reef in some part afforded support for

Australia, imperfect as it was. He designed this map based on a vast collection of notes he had gathered, and his own observations; notes on the structure of the coastline, his own observations during visits to other colonies, and the descriptions of other authors of various other parts of

Jukes wrote many papers that were printed in the London and Dublin geological journals and other periodicals. He delivered a popular geological course in geology which attracted almost 400 people in
Belfast, Northern Ireland, and encouraged field excursions in the area. This promoted the

Jukes's work provided one of the first insights into the nature of
Australian geology, at a time when there was little knowledge of the continent, and when English interest was intensely focused on obtaining the geological knowledge that Jukes was able to uncover.

In 1849, Jukes was offered the post of geological surveyor of the mineral surveying of New South Wales, back in
Australia. However, because of his marriage and other issues, he declined the offer, and the post was given to

Australia, under the leadership of Francis Price Blackwood, a naval officer.
