and Temapur. The "beds seen in the long valley stretching south from 



Temapur are reddish, pinkish, and grey and green and brownish-banded. 



The beds in these outliers are mostly very much crumpled, and the true 



dip often very doubtful in consequence. Exceptional beds in point 



. , . of color or texture were noted at Alimatti (Alee-

muttee), where a brecciated bed of handsome 

 appearance occurs, the drab limestone being cemented by a purple matrix. 

 Beds of dull reddish, earthy limestone occur to the south-east and south- 

 west of Mannapur, associated with red chert, lumps of which are scattered 

 about on the surface.

rather earthy. They roll about a good deal at 

 very low angles, and are underlaid to the south by beds of cream- 

 colored and whitish limestone which occur south of the Tolagatti 

 (Tolaguttee) nullah. Returning to the main limestone basin by the

which flows northward to Lokapur. South of the 

 village are numerous beds of grey limestone with a northerly dip of 

 from 30° to 60°, which diminishes further north. North of the village 

 a thick series of banded bluish -grey limestone succeeds. These beds 

 resemble those of Yendikeri; but they are far less cherty. They 

 are lost sight of under the thick talus which surrounds the southern 

 side of the Lokapur synclinal. Southward of Warratsgal in the corner 

 between Nagauur hill and the Batkurki (Butkoorkee) hill is a consider-
