The Salumber-Ghatol belt in Rajasthan, India, situated along southern margin of the Aravalli Craton, hosts a cluster of Cu-Au deposits in calcitic and dolomitic marbles that belong to Debari Group of the Paleo-mesoproterozoic Aravalli... more
The present study emphasises occurrence, mineral assemblages and mineral chemistry of the Neoproterozoic Degana Peraluminous Granite (DPG) around Rewat Hill and its fertility. Based on field evidences and nature of occurrences of... more
The Palaeoproterozoic Debari Group of Aravalli Supergroup near Dugocha, Rajasthan exposes carbonalbite-tourmaline bearing exhalite rock termed carbonaceous metaexhalite. This unit occurs within dolomites of Jagpura Formation and hosts... more
Geological and geochemical characteristics of the litho units exposed in and around Kalalikhera area of Pur-Banera belt have confirmed the presence of felsic volcanic rock unit named Kalalikhera felsic volcanic, with characteristic... more
Recent works suggest Proterozoic plate convergence along the southeastern margin of India which led to amalgamation of the high grade Eastern Ghats belt (EGB) and adjoining fold-and-thrust belts to the East Dhrawar craton. Two major... more
Fault-slip analysis along Gani-Kalva and Kona faults were performed.Extensional to transtensive regime dominated the post-lower Cuddapah or Kurnool sub-basin opening.Late compressional to transpressive/pure strike-slip regimes dominated... more
Two major structural events characterize the tectonic evolution of the northern part of the Nallamalai Fold Belt (NFB): (1) the Late Paleoproterozoic or Early Mesoproterozoic Dn1 compression due to the thrusting of granitic gneiss and... more
