236 NERBUDDA DISTRICT. 



Near the villages of Gogri and Lameta (see map) a hill called Bow- 

 Bowerghur Hill Sec- er S nur * rises to a height of 400 to 500 feet above 

 tlon " the valley, and is formed of schistose quartzite prin- 



cipally. It is separated from the general range of the Trap hills by a 

 narrow gorge of which Fig. 16 is a section diagram.

 In the bottom of the gorge the vertically bedded schists (c) are seen in 

 contact with the horizontal beds of the calcareous sandstones of the Lam- 

 eta group, (b) and while the steep sides of the glen rise on either hand, one 

 of these sides is formed of the former, and one of them of the latter 

 rock. The trap (a) covers the Lameta beds here as well as farther to the 

 east, where they, and the upper Damuda beds, are both seen again fault- 

 ed against and resting on the schists at Lameta Ghat on the Nerbudda. 

 To the north east from Jubbulpur, this boundary, as may be seen from 

 Conti t" f tl ^ ne ma V> 1S prolonged in a nearly straight line, and 

 fault boundary. j t must b e considered as part of the same fault 



line as that which we have been describing. In this part of its 

 course we have on one side of it the upper Damuda, Lameta, and Trap 

 rocks, and on the other the crystalline rocks. 



The faulted character of the boundary may be studied near the 

 villages of Bundi and Falgon (see map) and again near Sakri. From the 

 latter village it runs along a narrow glen, up which the path from Sakri 

 to Patra pa9se3. On one side of the glen the calcareous sandstones topped 

 by trap are seen, and close opposite them on the other, the syenite. 

 And thus on in this direction, the boundary holds its course in a straight 

 line, and has been traced as far as the Mahanuddi, where that river 

 forms the limit of the territories belonging to the Rajah of Rewah. 



* Not to be mistaken for a hill of the same name far to the W. and already mentioned.
