Extract

The Salt Range of the Northern Punjab derives its name from the numerous beds of rock salt which are there included amidst the pre-Cambrian strata. Some of these salt beds are of great purity and immense thickness, and have been utilised as a source of the mineral from a remote period, while extensive mines have been opened out by Government since the annexation of the province. The blödite referred to below was discovered in these workings by Dr. H. Warth, lately Deputy Superintendent of the Geological Survey of India, but who, at the time alluded to, held charge of the mines in question.
