62 HOLLAND AND TIPPER: INDIAN GEOLOGICAL TERMINOLOGY. 



Procluctus Limestone of the Punjab Salt Kange, and regarded 

 as about equivalent to the Zechstein and Kupferschiefer of 

 Western Europe. Kalabagh is a small town on the Indus 

 (32° 58' ; 71° 36') in the Mianwali district. 



Kaladgi System. — Unf ossiferous rocks resembling the Cuddapahs, 

 preserved in a basin lying mainly between the Kistna and Mal- 

 prabha rivers in the (Southern Mahratta country. Named by 

 E. B. Foote (Mem. Geol. Surv. hid., XII, 17, 70, 1876) from 

 the town of Kaladgi (16° 12' ; 75° 34') in Bijapur district. The 

 system was divided as follows : — 



Upper Kaladgi series : 



Feet. 



C. Shales, limestones and hematite schists . 2,000 

 5. Quartzites, with local conglomerates and brec- 

 cias 1,200—1,800 



Lower Kaladgi series : 



4. Limestones and shales ..... 5,000 — 6,000 

 3. Sandstones and shales . . . . ~) 



2. Siliceous limestones and cherty breccias . > 3,000 — 5,000 

 1 . Quartzites, conglomerates and sandstones . ) 



Like the equivalent Cuddapahs, this system would now be in- 

 cluded in the Purana group. 



Kaltl series. — A series of unlossiliferous rocks — conglomerates, 

 graphitic slates, etc. — underlying the Devonian Hajigak lime- 

 stone and hematite, and recalling in some features the Haiman- 

 tas of the Himalayan region. The series is typically exposed 

 near Kalu (34° 41' ; 68° 2') to the west-north-west of Kabul 

 in Afganistan, and has been described by H. H. Hayden (Mem. 

 Geol. Surv. Ind., XXXIX, 23, 1911). 



Kama clays. — Fossiliferous blue shales and sandstones recognised 

 by W. Theobald (Eec. Geol. Surv. Ind., II, 80, 1869 ; Mem. Geol. 

 Surv. Ind., X, 273, 1873) as a constituent of his Pegu system, 

 and named from the town of Kama (19° 0' ; 95° 11') 18 miles 

 above Prome on the Irrawaddy river. M. Stuart (Rec. Geol. Surv. 

 Ind., XXXVIII, 274, 1910) regards the age of these clays as 

 Helvetian-Tortonian above and Burdigalian below, and consi- 

 ders them to be the uppermost of three divisions of the Pegu 

 system, separated by an unconformity from the overlying ma- 

 rine (Akauktaimg) beds of the Irrawaddy system. Stuart (he.
