Figure 3C-Photograph and schematic diagram showing iron-stained, lateritic mudstone bed overlying the upper part of the Lumshiwal Formation. This mudstone bed is about 1 m thick and probably represents paleosol development on the surface of the Lumshiwal Formation prior to the formation of the Makarwal coal bed (not shown). Lithologies exposed in the Lumshiwal include thin-bedded sandstone and mudstone. Photograph courtesy of E.A. Johnson.
