of unequal thickness, and dip from 30° to 35° to the south. Between Sil- 

 tvara and Patau Sangi, the sand-stone rises into a low hill, upon the 

 surface of which are quantities of the conglomerate, No. 2. (" This lies 

 also in considerable masses in the bed of the stream, near Sawnhr, and 

 appears to cover an extensive part of the country, beyond the pass of 

 Kelode, on the road to Sindivara. 



RAMTEK. 



Proceeding to the north from Kamtt, on the high road to lldmtek, 

 no rock is found on the surface from the former village to the slight ele- 

 vation extending from Scitak to Nagardan. 



About half-way, however, in a deep well, dug for the convenience of 

 travellers, at the depth of about thirty feet from the surface, was found a 

 granite decomposed, consisting almost entirely of pure milk-white fel- 

 spar, with very small quantities of white quartz and white mica. On 

 being taken up, the specimens of this rock fell to pieces. Not far from 

 this, in a nullah, were found some large boulders of translucent white 

 quartz, interspersed throughout with long thin prisms of schorl, regularly 

 radiating from centres. 



The swell at Sdtak and Nagardan (No. 1.) is of quartz, but the 

 rock does not appear in any considerable mass. 



Hence, for four or five miles to Rdmtck, the road passes over deep 

 black soil to the small advanced hill, covered throughout with quartz 



pebbles.
