Immediately to the soutli of the point where the manganese-silicate- 
, . rock reaches the river, there is seen in the bank, for 
I\laiif;.iiics('.lai('i'it(\ . ' 
()2 paces gomg down stream, a layer 5 to G feet 
thick of vesicular manganese-laterite, mottled brick-red, orange, and black, 
and containing pebbles of the muscovite-quartz-rock, suggesting that 
the laterite has been formed by the breaking down of this rock with 
introduction of iron and manganese from without. 
It will be interesting to record the rocks to the south of the ore-band, 
, ^, ^^^^^ , exposed along the river-bank, because this is the only 
place along the whole length of the Dunn i Kaliin — 
Khandala band of deposits where the rocks accompanying the ore- 
deposits are at all well seen. 
In order going down stream they are as follows : — 
1. White vein-quartz containing muscovite. Perhaps a very coarse 
quart zite. 
2. Muscovite-schist. 
3. Rocks obscured by the manpanese-laterite. 
4. Fclspathic quartzite. 
5. IMuscovite-quartz-schist. 
6. Tourmahne-bearing quartzite. 
7. Muscovite-schists intruded by coarse pegmatite, composed of pale pink 
felspai, quartz, and muscovite, with a htt.le touvmxline. 
8. Fine-grained white gneiss containin<.' a Httle muscovite. 
9. Medium-grained tourn aline-trianite, probably intrusive. 
10. Very coarse pegmatite with fels])ar indivi(hials up to 1 foot long. 
The dip seen is 45° to 50° in a direction varying from S. 5^ W to 
S. 5" E.

This group of deposits lies in hilly country about 7 miles to the east- 
north -east of Ramtek and about 7 miles due north of the Waregaon 
deposit. The Manegaon and Guguldoho deposits, although apparently 
not continuous with one another, probably represent one band of original 
manganiferous sediments. Together they form a band over 3 miles in 
length. The Gtiguldoho deposit continues into the Bhandara district to a 
distance that has not been ascertained, and may correspond in horizon 
to the ore-band seen at Asalpani, s?-..iie 13 miles to the east-north -east in
