' This bed., is also seen at Nagpoor on the Tawa where it is in parts 

 decidedly conglomeritic^ containing quartzite peb- 

 ° ' bles in considerable quantities. In a nullah on the 



west side of the river, just above Nagpoor, a soft white sandstone with 

 ferruginous conglomerate beneath it, about 1 foot in thickness, and ap- 

 parently lower in position than the limestone, is seen resting upon 

 metamorphic rocks. This much strengthens the proba^ -'lity of the whole 

 belonging to \h.e Bagh beds. 



North of the Httle patch of metamorphics, and just south of the 

 village of Bijulpoor, Vindhyans come in, and at the village trap occurs. 

 No intervening beds are seen. The sketch section below (Fig. 6) will 

 illustrate the relation of the beds : — ■

To the north of Bijulpoor Vindhyans re-emerge almost immediately 



,„ „ ^, „ from beneath the traps and rise into hills which 



\mQayans north ot ^ 



Bijulpoor, continue steadily to the westward. The beds are 



undulating and resemble precisely those already described on the north 

 bank of the river. 



Just west of Poonassa near the village of Bhorla, a considerable 

 expanse of ground is covered with sedimentary rocks, apparently of the

close to Bhorla, porcelanic clay is seen, probably hardened by trap which 

 is in place close by. Just west of Bhorla, massive nodular grey lime- 

 stone m horizontal beds crops out on the north side of the road to Taklee. 

 This appears to be higher in position than the clay, and may possibly, in
