Description
What engineering geologists understand to represent wide solution channels (penetrable cave passages or impenetrable conduits) in locally 80 m thick Bhander Limestone of Upper Vindhyan age noticed KRUPANIDHI (1966) in search of economically exploitable flux-grade limestone resources in parts of Rewa and Satna districts. Compare the –>Garhwar Solution Channels. SITUATION: Somewhere in a certain Naubasta block east of the village of Naubasta or Chhijwar (note 1) on the banks of the Kariari Nadi (KRUPANIDHI 1966 location map) or Kariar Nadi (AMS sheet NG44-15 Rewa (U502 series, 1959 edition) and at estimated linear distances of 14 km SW of –>Garhwar, 30 km ESE of from Satna (N24°35': E080°50'), 20 km west from Rewa (N24°32': E081°18') and 35 km SSE from Chitrakoot (PWD Inspection Bungalow near N25°10'25-: E080°52'10- Everest 1830). KRUPANIDHI (1966: 343): The region examined is a gently undulating country with a few hillocks and high grounds … The limestone deposits investigaed lie to the north of the Rewa-Satna highway. The nearest railhead at Satna on the Katni-Allahabad section of Central Railway is about 23 to 50 km from the deposits. (note 2) CAVE DESCRIPTION: KRUPANIDHI (1966: 345): Joints are not common in the Bhander Limestone. The few available joints are either strike or dip joints and are always vertical. Wide solution channels are developed along a few of these joint planes in Naubasta and Garhwar blocks.ed lie to the north of the Rewa-Satna highway.
