The aim of this paper is to examine, primarily from an algebraic point of view, the structure of a 2-dimensional normal local domain (S, n) which birationally dominates a 2-dimensinal regular local ring (R, m). From the geometric point of view, the sine qua non is Lipman’s paper [Lr] on rational singularities, for it follows from one of the early results in that paper that S has a rational singularity. Using elementary algebraic techniques we are able to recover much information concerning the structure of S. We have particularly focused on the fact (from Lipman [Ll] and Artin [Ar]) that S must have minimal multiplicity. We hope this approach will aid in understanding the algebra of rational singularities and in the exploration of many open questions in dimension two and in higher dimensions. The framework of the paper is set up as follows. In the first section we use basic algebraic techniques such as analytic independence and Zariski’s Main Theorem to prove, for example, that S has a regular height 1 prime if R/m is infinite. If S is not regular, we may assume that R is “maximally regular” in S and when this is the case we show, for instance, that the
