[edit] Assessment Feb 2008

The article is two sentences, clearly a stub. It needs a photo, and infobox. Someone might mention that they are volcanic in origin. If someone reads French the PhD thesis below might prove a useful source:

van den Berghe, B., 1983a. Evolution sédimentaire et structurale depuis le Paléocene du secteur 'Massif de la Selle' (Haiti) - 'Baoruco' (Republique Dominicaine) - 'Nord de la Ride de Beata' dans l' orogene nord Caraibe (Hispaniola - Grandes Antilles) (Sedimentar and structural evolution since the Paleocene from sector 'Massif de la Selle' (Haiti) - 'Baoruco' (Dominican-Republic) - 'North of the Beata Ridge' within the north Caribbean orogeny (Hispaniola - Greater Antilles)). PhD Thesis, Université Pierre et Marie Curie? pp.
  • The Sierra Bahoruco in rise in far southwestern part of the Dominican Republic. This mountainous region which includes the Sierra Bahoruco, creates a peninsula which is bounded on one side by the Parque Nacional Jaragua and thereafter the Caribbean Sea. On the other side, the land falls away to lowest point in the Caribbean, 46 meters below sea level! Noted for the colored 'concretions' which were identified as 'pectolites' in the first quarter of the 19th century by Franz Ritter von Kobell, a noted German geologist.
