stone, while at the same time it runs up along the granite surface to 



heights never attained by the topmost beds of the limestone. 



There are other facts to suggest its being, in this part of the field, 



the true representative of the Semri sandstone. 

 Semri sandstone. 



Wherever along the granite junction, between 



this and the Kane, the Kymore rocks have not cut out the subjacent 

 group, the rock in junction is invariably the one I have described beino- 

 more or less siliceous or calcareous as the case may be, and generally with 

 an increased development of the associated mixed green sandstone, parti- 

 cularly when it gets into lower beds. Already a few hundred yards from 

 the base of the Chutterkote hill at bottom of a gully in the alluvium, 

 thin schistose green sandstones show and are a good deal rolled about. 

 About the village of Putoreea the same are well seen, with the massive 

 jaspery limestone in the bank above. 



At Futtehgunj " there are about 40 to 50 feet of the lower rock 

 between the massive limestone, and the granite; much of the amygda- 

 loidal sinter under the massive limestone, with green and yellow chert." 

 Again on Bisramgunj gMt "about half way down there is a mass of 

 limestone about 20 feet thick — it has here a character not before seen : 

 the siliceous and calcareous elements are more mixed than usual — 

 weathering rough and honeycombed — on fracture it has a pisolitic aspect, 

 grains large, sometimes chert, sometimes the limestone with a chert 

 nucleus, frequent specks of pyrites. The interstices are filled either with 

 flint, or ferruginous calc spar, or are sometimes empty. From the base 

 of this rock to the granite there are fully 50 feet of beds of sand- 

 stone, thin, some coarse, very hard and as it were semi-vitrified, general- 

 ly so with a green tinge, some more earthy and decomposing like shale. 

 These rest immediately on coarsely crystalline red granite." Beyond the 

 Kane no such rock was observed, but its identification with the Semri 

 group is rendered more than probable by the occurrence, under the top 

 beds of this group that are exposed in the bed of the Kane, of a rock
