]03 remarks on a recent journey
and marl Some of the sections are bright almost as the rainbow
Dalakhi-Kisht Nos. IS, 19, 20, 21, 22, and 23, represent specimens
from one of those sections taken from above down. For the rest of
the way the rocks are twice the height, some dip North and some West,
and all are composed of sandstone and conglomerate. Nos. 24 and 25
are specimens of those iocks.
Kisht is a plain about one thousand feet above the level of the sea
and supported by the innermost of those ranges. It has every ap.
pearance of having been the bed of a lake.
The rocks from Kisht to Kemaridge are also of the gypsiferous
series. For the first third of the way they are formed of two different
coloured sandstones (Kisht-Kemaridge Nos. 2fi and 27), each stratum
being about six feet thick. The rocks are about five hundred feet
hio-h° and dip in all directions, and are destitute of vegetation.
For the other two-thirds of the road the rocks are higher, and com
posed of gypsum and sandstones of many different colours. In some
strata the gypsum is pure white, and in others it is mixed with marl.
Kisht-Kemaridge Nos. 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, and 33, represent speci-
mens of the sandstones and gypsum. These rocks are destitute of
vegetation, and dip SW., at an angle of 45°. The innermost, support
ing the plain of Kemaridge, is quite one thousand feet- high, and the
strata, when they reach the top, bend back in a curious manner, on a
level with the plain.
The plain of Kemaridge is bounded on the South by conglomerate
rocks (Kemaridge No. 34), on the East by the limestone range sepaiat-
ing it from the valley of Kazeroon (Kemaridge No. 35), and on the
west by sandstone and gypsum (No. 36).
