296 WYNNE: GEOLOGY OE THE SALT RANGE IN THE PUNJIb. 



5. Baudot (No. 2). — A mile further north, in a fallen under-cliff, thicknesses of two 

 layers fifteen to eighteen inches and from ten to twelve inches. Beds squeezed out to south 

 and cut off to north ; fuel not had ; coal divided hy a band of sandy shale. 



6. Baudot (No. 3). — Further to the north and west, same general character j no 

 gi'eater prospect of successful exploration. 



7. Nila. — Coal poor in quality, dip 30° to 35° to south-east ; coal more than fifteen 

 inches thick ; eight feet of blackish shales below it with thin layers of flaky coal. 



8. Karuli.— Goal slipped with the rocks on which the village is placed; useless as well 

 as very limited in extent. 



9. Nurpur (Nilawan). — Northern end of main gorge under high cliff, along which 

 patrol road has been carried ; little prospect of any successful working. 



10. Sowa Khan. — On the edge of a slip fault, which has brought the nummulitic 

 limestone into contact with the red and purple marly beds of the salt series. Section 

 concealed to a great extent by debris ; only a portion of the rocks, far removed from 

 their natural position. 



11. Beiwal. — A little patch of coal and coaly shale in one of the lower spurs of the 

 hills a few mQes from Deiwal village, but said to be within its boundaries, perfectly use- 

 less as a source of fuel. The coal occurs in a heap of debris of all kinds, only a few feet 

 in length, and varies from an inch or two to nearly two feet in thickness. 



12. Katia. — At the base of a large cliff of nummulitic limestone under the Chamil 

 hill, near its base, both limestone and coal broken. No prospect of any continuous supply. 

 The bed of no thickness. 



13. Chamil. — Under the lofty scarp of the nummulitic limestone at the north- 

 eastern corner of the line of cliffs which form the southern face of the Chamil plateau ; coal 

 and associated shales in their true position unfallen, dip 12° to north 5° west. Two coal 

 seams, one from six inches to ten or twelve in thickness, the other fine jetty coal, six inches. 

 Place not very difiicult of access, but no workable quantity of coal. 



14. Sungle Wan. — Or one mile west of village of Arar, close to Diliali hamlet, at level 

 of water in bank of stream. Two thin seams, upper six inches, lower ten to twelve inches, 

 dip south-east 30°. Beds a small patch under a large talus of debris ; at foot of high 

 scarps of limestone, one mass of broken debris. Same beds again seen not far off ; much 

 broken up ; no prospect of being profitably worked. 



15. Amh or Umh. — The Sulgi coal locality; coal of no value and no extent (see 

 detailed descriptions foregoing). 



16. Kalabagh. — Irregular strings and patches of coaly matter in the alum shales, 

 especially in the lower group of the shales, not extracted. (This is not the place whence the 

 Kalabagh coal is taken, the latter being Jurassic ; this is nummulitic.) 



17. Kotli. — Southern end of the Chichali Pass, similar to the nummulitic locality of 

 Kalabagh. Specimens of the coal have been analysed. It is for the most part rather diiB- 

 cult to ignite at first, throwing out a large quantity of dense smoke (in most cases with a
