SEC. 3.] WAGUR, E. KUTCH. 131 



From Kukrooa a low range of rocky sandstone hills runs to the 

 Faulted sulj-nummu- '"'estward parallel to the escarpment of the above 

 htic beds. rocks and coinciding with a fault which brings 



these against the lateritic sub-nummulitic rocks. Along this Kne 

 highly silicious beds much resembling " fault-rock" occur in a generally 

 vertical position undulating along their east and west strike. 



South of the fault the red and white lateritic group overlies coarse 

 gravelly sandstones and soft white clayey beds, quartzose conglomerates, 

 concretionary hsematitic bands, with some shales and flagstones, full of 

 plant fragments. They are sometimes ripple marked, and a few exhibit 

 Annelide tracks. The hard thick sandstones possess a concretionary 

 structure, and the beds have a general low dip to the northward. They 

 present little variety until some sandstone beds to the south-east of Mhow 

 are found to contain the same large Astarte and Trigonia as occur at 

 Iddurghur. Somewhat south of this they all turn over the ill defined 

 anticlinal axis which passes along the south side of the hilly part of 

 Wagur and dips at high angles southwards, descending abruptly beneath 

 the wide alluvial plain, which forms one of the few fertile tracts of the 

 province. 



In the low country about Mhow sandstones, shales, and flaggy 

 Mhow East and Kuk- t)eds similar to those just now described undulate 

 at low angles or dip to the westward ; while 

 directly to the north where the Kukrooa fault becomes no longer trace- 

 able, near Munfurra, the following junction with the sub-nummulitic 

 band is seen : —
