Proterozoic East Gondwana
Author: Masaru Yoshida
Publisher: Geological Society of London
ISBN: 9781862391253
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 486
Book Description
This volume focuses on Late Mesoproterozoic to early Cambrian events related to Gondwana assembly and break up. The nineteen papers provide a comprehensive review including advanced knowledge and new data from all critical areas of East Gondwana. The recent knowledge of the evolution of East Gondwana, which was regarded as an integral part of the Mesoproterozoic supercontinent Rodinia, is the major theme of the volume, which is reinforced by highlighting this radical and new understanding of the evolution of this region.

Author: Dr. P. J. Ratnakar & Dr. SS. Asadi
Publisher: Lulu Publication
ISBN: 1105707792
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
Eastern Ghats Mobile Belt constitutes an important geological part of the eastern margin of the Indian peninsula, which extends over a stretch of about 700 kilometers from Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh in the south to Balasore, Cuttack district of Orissa state in the northern border. There is bewildering variety of rock types in Eastern Ghats and the most important units are the khondalites, leptynites, granites, granulites and their variants. Extensive research work has been carried out in different localities of Eastern Ghats by many scientists from different academic institutions and organisations. The present study area Narsipatnam consisting of various rock types khondalites, leptynites, granites, granulites and their variants. The granulites with varying compositions are exhibiting intrusive relationship with leptynites and at places exposed as hillocks and hill ranges.

Conjugate Divergent Margins
Author: Webster Mohriak
Publisher: Geological Society of London
ISBN: 1862393494
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 569
Book Description
The main focus of the book is the geological and geophysical interpretation of sedimentary basins along the South, Central and North Atlantic conjugate margins, but concepts derived from physical models, outcrop analogues and present-day margins are also discussed in some chapters. There is an encompassing description of several conjugate margins worldwide, based on recent geophysical and geological datasets. An overview of important aspects related to the geodynamic development and petroleum geology of Atlantic-type sedimentary basins is also included. Several chapters analyse genetic mechanisms and break-up processes associated with rift-phase structures and salt tectonics, providing a full description of conjugate margin basins based on deep seismic profiles and potential field methods.--

Proterozoic Orogens of India
Author: T.R.K. Chetty
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0128044810
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 427
Book Description
Proterozoic Orogens of India: A Critical Window to Gondwana provides a unique opportunity to understand a cross-section of the well-exposed and best-studied part of Earth's crust and the processes of continental collision. It covers pulses of reworking processes and their impact on magmatism, metamorphism and deformational history of Proterozoic orogens vis-à-vis the supercontinental formation. The details of structural architecture, crustal blocks, shear zone systems, magmatism, metamorphism, geochemical and isotopic signatures, mineralization and tectonic models of all the Proterozoic orogens of India are discussed along with excellent illustrations reflecting the field-based, multi-scale structural and geological data sets.The spatial distribution, geometry, kinematics and transpressional strain of the shear zone systems (mostly suture zones), which are critical to all conceptual models dealing with tectono-metamorphic history of Proterozoic orogens of India, are also covered. The book summarizes and integrates the state-of -the art understanding of the structural architecture, lithological assemblages, petrological, geochemical, geochronological and geophysical aspects of the Proterozoic orogens of India. - Includes a much needed state-of-the-art tectonic summary of the voluminous data that has emerged from the Protrozoic orogens of India in the last 2-3 decades - Authored by a well-established expert with more than 30 years of experience in the field based, multi-scale structural geological studies of the ancient orogens of India - Covers up-to-date reviews and models of Proterozoic orogens developed in the Indian shield over the past 2.5 billion years of Earth history

Palaeoproterozoic of India
Author: Rajat Mazumder
Publisher: Geological Society of London
ISBN: 9781862393455
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
The Indian shield represents a vast repository of the Palaeoproterozoic geological record. Built over the four large amalgamated Archaean nuclei (Dharwar, Bastar, Singhbhum and Aravalli-Bundelkhand) the major and minor Palaeoproterozoic sedimentary basins and supracrustal sequences in India are comparable in scale, and perhaps also in development, to those of North America, Africa, Australia and Brazil. The deformation of these supracrustal sequences, attendant metamorphism and emplacement of plutonic bodies hold important clues to their connection with major orogenies. Research in these areas has led to investigations into global correlation, which in turn has had a direct bearing on refining models of Palaeoproterozoic supercontinent assembly and break-up. This book covers various aspects of regional geology as well as broader issues of the Indian Palaeoproterozoic geology and its global context. It is an outcome of the UNESCO-IGCP 509 Palaeoproterozoic Supercontinents and Global Evolution research project.

Tectonic Inheritance in Continental Rifts and Passive Margins
Author: Achyuta Ayan Misra
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319205765
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 97
Book Description
This work reviews the mechanism of rifting with a focus on pre-existing tectonic weaknesses in pre-rift and/or basement rocks, i.e., on tectonic inheritance. The passive margins that are studied in this book are the Norwegian Continental Shelf, the Eastern North America and the East and West Indian Continental Margins. The continental rifts that have been analysed are the East African Rift System, the Brazilian Continental Rift Systems and the European Cenozoic Rift System. It states how rifts and passive margins serve as valuable locations for hydrocarbon exploration. Tectonic inheritance/heritage examines the influence of pre-existing/pre-rift elements on the geometry, genesis and propagation of rift-related faults. Such elements include anisotropies in the shallow crustal levels, as well as the rheology of the lithosphere. Inheritance greatly influences the architecture of rifted passive margins including the attitude of faults and geometry of horsts, (half-) grabens, transfer zones etc. Inheritance is also a determining factor in the width of rifts and rift shoulder topography.
