| Abstract |
As the result of the investigation in the Pindi Khola valley and the upper reaches of the Andhi Khola, western Central Nepal, it was realized that the rocks of the inner belt north of the Bari Gad Fau...lt can be grouped into four conformable lithostratigraphic units, the Belbas Slates, Syangja Beds, Darsing Dolomite, and Andhi Khola Slates in ascending order. Thereupon the stratigraphic positions and formation names of the three units mapped in my previous paper as the Virkot, the Kerabari and the Andhi Formation should be rectified as the Syangja Beds, Darsing Dolomite and Andhi Khola Slates, respectively. These three units are referable to as the stratigraphic equivalents to the Middle and Upper Members of the Chappani, Khoraidi and Ramdighat Formations in the outer belt. The Belbas Slates is comparable to the Lower Member of the Chappani. These stratigraphic equivalents between the inner and outer belts are considerably different in lithofacies from each other. Overall lithologic changes suggest that the rocks in the inner belt are the deposits in much seaward and slightly deepened environments as compared with those of the outer belt.show more
