- The saline crust is well developed on the interfluves between the valleys and shows little or no evidence for active runoff.
- The basal conglomerates and the equivalent sands and muds on the interfluves are commonly ferruginized.
- Therefore, the ferruginization of the basal channel conglomerates is seen as coeval with ground-water ferricrete formation in the interfluves.
