Description

Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

A possibly west-north-west facing cave entrance (mere guesswork) gives access to the relic of a relatively small cave (Perrin 2010.02.02 Mss), which is an estimated 8 m long, of phreatic origin, and formed in massive Narji Limestone. SITUATION: In an unspecified direction 50 m on the side of the first –>Nemmicheli Gavi and again at the base of a circa 30 m high cliff exposing not only massive Narji Limestone but also thin-bedded limestone in the slope at the top of the cliff (some old quarries nearby); and Panyam quartzite on top (Perrin 2010.02.02 Mss).
