| Abstract/Notes | Occurrence of the Oil.—The oilfield of Jaba and those of Rawalpindi and Fatehjang are identical from the stratigraphical point of view. At Jaba, too, the oil is to be found in the contact zone between the Nummulitic limestone and the younger gypsiferous clays of the Upper Nummulitic. These gypsiferous clays represent a bed well adapted to favour the accumulation of oil, wherever they cover the limestone at a moderate inclination. The oil issues only from the limestone, but the cellular limestone, too, may be oil-bearing in depth. It may be pointed out that cellular limestones of the same character accompany the oil-shows at Gunda, the main oil-spring in the neighbourhood of Fatehjang. |
