124 FOOTE : SOUTH MAHRATTA COUNTRY. 



At Chattarband Kota (Cliutturbund Kotta) silicious beds occur 

 very largely^ and form tbe western extremity of an 

 ChtttaiZnd Kote.""^ ^^ anticlinal axis stretcbing away to tbe east-soutb- 

 east nearly up to tbe village of Kujadoni, and very 

 likely continuous with tbe Kbaleskop anticlinal mentioned before (p. 116). 

 Some of tbe sibcious bands are quite cberty, otbers are indistinguisbable 

 from tbin-bedded quartzites. Tbe set of grey beds wbicb was noted as 

 occurring at Antapur crosses tbe Gbatprabba at Jembigi in tbe Mudbol 

 State^ and follows tbe line of tbe overlying quartzite beds in all its 

 sinuosities^ till covered up by tbe overlying trap flows between Murgur 

 and Yadwad (Yardwar) . As at Antapur, tbe sbades of color prevalent 

 are greys of differing intensity; close to Murgur, for example, bluisb- 

 grey is a very common color, together witb grey and wbitisb beds. 



Many of tbe same beds are unquestionably seen

again at i acLwad and m its environs, where one or 



tbe largest shows of bmestone in tbe whole region is to be found. Tbe 



prevalent beds are grey in various sbades, but other colors, such as white- 



banded grey and white, greenish-grey with pink and white bands, and 



greyish-green, &c., are also to be found. The beds are mostly seen in 



tbe bed and banks of tbe great Yadwad nullah. 



Tbe great plain south of Yadwad is covered by an almost un- 

 broken sheet of typical regur through wbicb rocks only protrude in a very 

 few widely scattered places, so that it is impossible to correlate the several 

 outcrops witb an approximation to certainty. A little to tbe north- 

 east of Monami banded green and white limestone witb some white and 

 pink bands occur in small sections. 



In tbe outliers from tbe main limestone basin west of Yadwad, 



tbe limestones are almost entirely of the grey 



Western outliers. 



varieties ; large shows of these are to be seen 

 between Hal Yergudri (Hull Yergoodree) and Ouradee, between Bisun- 

 kop and Beshatti, at Kulgur (Koolgoor), and between Hass Yergudri
