152 KING: KADAPAH AND KARNÜL FORMATIONS. [PART III. 
*On Dekundraian peak are coarse ferruginous quartzites with bands of con- 
glomerate. North of Cotapait rock similar beds form bold bluffs. 
* At the Paupugnee, south of Vaimpully, a good section is obtained in the river 
Section at the Paupugnee gorge which in ascending order is as follows :—coarse, rather 
paps: ferruginous quartzites much false bedded, the lowest parts 
obscured by a talus of fragments, often of enormous size. Over this a hard greyish 
quartzite (with some more slaty and flaggy partings) forming bold bluffs or cliffs along 
each side of the river, of 200 feet or more, and having a low rolling dip to north by 
west or north. Over these on the north, a succession of silicious flags, indurated clays, 
and beds of impure limestone.* 
* South-east of Vaimla ascending from Vapatmonpait to Meedpenta, under the 
indurated shales and caleareous slates, come coarse grey quartzites with conglomerate 
Gooleheroos decreasing bands, ferruginous. Again, north of Goondoowarpully and 
E - Bolagootacheroo, there are similar beds forming the top of 
the range, but a less thickness of the coarser pebbly quartzites ; the gneiss appearing 
nearer the top of the hills and the more flaggy and slaty beds coming in nearer to it. 
“Again, south-west of Vaimla resting on the gneiss, coarse conglomeratie 
quartzites; and over these hard thick-bedded and coarse massive quartzites with 
ferruginous flags. 
“South-west of Poolavaindla, above the gneiss in ascending order, the following 
series of rocks occurs :—a coarse gravelly quartzite at bottom, on this a conglomerate 
containing pebbles of quartz, flint;t and felspar. Over this a rather coarsely granular 
1 altered sandstone, grey and purplish, frequently much false- 
Rippled beds. A 1 
bedded, and ripple marked and often speckled by grains of 
felspar. Over this some ferruginous bands, with a sort of laterite conglomerate locally 
on the surface, and over these towards Goondaldeverpully a succession of finer 
quartzites, silicious flags, ۰ 
“ North-east of Timmanainpolliam, on the extreme west of the Cuddapah Sheet 
of Indian Atlas, overlying the irregular denuded surface of a highly syenitoid gneiss, 
are greyish and reddish ferruginous quartzites with some conglomerates containing 
pebbles of quartz and of flint (? chert) rarely. The lowest beds are not conglomeratie, 
but are coarse ferruginous quartzite.” 
The following details are illustrative of such features of interest as 
are displayed by the Goolcheroo quartzites in their outcrop, from where 
Mr. Charles Oldham left them up to Kurnool; and the accompanying 
sections (Plate VI, Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,) show the manner in which these
