northern ; and here also metamorphic rocks are almost continuously exposed at the contact: Along the upper course of e the Tawa the younger rocks have been deeply denuded emposing a* scarp formed of the crystallinerocks; but on the side of the K6iphan and of the Pench the surface of the younger rocks south of the Motur ridge is on the general level of the SAtptira plateau. [...] first for a length of some fourteen miles the scarpais tuftorted upon a high undercliff of the metamorphics at one point these reach to the full height of the range the sandstone being weathered back as a low second scarp.; In the gorge of the Sakar and Hard the basin of which adjoins In the Sakar and Hard that of the Sher and Machiriva within the hills area. [...] To the west of the Hard this gradual elevation of the Jabalptir beds continues with the concomitant effect of introducing underlying groups not represented in the sections to the east—the beginning of the features noticed in the main section of the SatpUra basin. [...] On the south the boundary of the group is for the most part well definedIwhere the clays lap up upon the unbroken Boidary sections in the Dirdhi and 13`enwci sandstone of the Pachmaris as 'at Moar on the valleys. [...] The relation of these to the sandstone is better seen a little to the east where the disturbance is not so great in the deeply cut valleys on the north of the range west of the Sonbudra.
