60 WYNNE : TRANS-INDUS SALT REGION, KOIIAT DISTRICT. 



of the limestone portion of the strata nests of radiating spar were found, 

 which g-ave the red Strontian flame before the blow-pipe, and probably 

 consist of a mixture of this mineral with dolomite (or bitter spar) . Some 

 of the lower beds of the limestone also contain small nests of iron pyrites. 



In some places just below the limestone part of the group are thin 

 carbonaceous layers or pockets suggestive of the coaly bands very 

 similarly situated in the Salt Range. They are, however, mere traces, 

 and of no commercial value.
