E X E C U T I V E S U M M A R Y 1. All the items proposed for the Field Season 2013-14 were timely initiated under the different

Missions. The work is under progress and the assigned targets will be achieved as per

schedule.

2. The highlight of work carried out during the third quarter of F.S. 2013-14 includes

investigations on copper and associated precious metals in Khera block, and Khera SE block,

Mundiyawas-ka-khera area, Alwar district, exploration for basemetal in Nanagwas area, Sikar

district, exploration for basemetal in Palaswala ki Dhani Block, Sikar district, Rajasthan and

investigation for copper and tungsten in Kamalpura Block of the Pur-Banera Belt, Bhilwara

District, Rajasthan. Besides, search for cement grade limestone under Project Industrial,

Fertiliser and other Minerals have also yielded significant signatures.

3. Under the item investigation for copper and associated precious metals in Khera Block,

Mundiyawas-Khera area, Alwar district, Rajasthan, the borehole KBH-11 (FS 2013-14)

commenced on 08.07.2013 and closed at 130.35 m depth on 13.09.2013. It has intersected

light grey coloured, fine grained, hard, compact siliceous rock with occasional cherty

quartzite and scapolite rich bands (meta volcano sedimentary rock). The borehole intersected

sulphides manifested in the form of foliation parallel fine disseminations of arsenopyrite and

fracture / vein filled coarse grained chalcopyrite with minor pyrrhotite from 44.55 m depth

onwards with intermittent rich zones between 45.25 m & 49.80 m (4.55 m), 58.70 m & 63.25

m (4.55 m) Cu (V.E.) = 0.8-1.0% along the borehole.

From 44.55 m to 60.25 m depth Cu (V.E.) = 0.4 – 0.6%.

70.0 m to 86.0 m depth Cu (VE) = 0.2 -0.3%

4. Under the item investigation for copper and associated precious metals in Khera SE Block,

Mundiyawas-Khera area, Alwar district, Rajasthan, the first borehole KEBH-1 (FS 2013-14)

in Khera SE block intersected sulphides in the form of chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite and

pyrrhotite from 41.20 m depth along the borehole, besides native copper, bornite and

covellite. Bornite and covellite occur at 75.75 m depth associated with chalcopyrite in

dolomitic marble. Native copper occurs as vug filling, fracture filling and streaks within the

oxidised rock at 57.35 m, 62.50-63.0 m, 63.65-63.85 m, 88.0-88.60 m and 91.65 m depth

5. Under the item exploration for basemetal in West of Nanagwas area, Sikar district, Rajasthan,

the fourth borehole of this FSP, WNBH-8 commenced on 09.09.2013 and closed on

11.10.2013 (last quarter-July to September) at 154m depth. The borehole intersected biotite

rich dolomitic marble containing amphiboles and scapolite, amphibole bearing calc biotite

schist containing occasional grains of garnet, dolomitic marble intercalated with thin partings

of quartz biotite schist. Specks, disseminations and vein filled chalcopyrite, bornite and

covellite have been intersected in the borehole from 65.05m to 74.35m depth along the

borehole. The borehole has also intersected coarse to medium grained bornite, chalcopyrite

and covellite.

Fifth borehole of this FSP, WNBH-9 commenced on 01.11.2013 and closed on 12.12.2013 at

170m depth. The borehole intersected dolomitic marble with partings of quartz biotite schist,

biotite bearing dolomitic marble containing amphiboles and scapolite, calc biotite schist,

amphibole and scapolite bearing dolomitic marble. The borehole intersected specks and

disseminations of chalcopyrite and pyrite between 57.90m & 68.85m. The borehole

intersected fine disseminations and vein filled, fine to medium grained bornite, chalcopyrite

and ocassionally covellite between 73.75 & 98.75m depth along the borehole and fine

disseminations of chalcopyrite and pyrite between 101m & 170m depth along the borehole.

The chemical analytical results of core samples are awaited.

6. Under the item exploration for basemetal in Palaswala-ki-Dani Block, Sikar district,

Rajasthan, two boreholes (PDBH-1 & 2) have been completed with a total of 298.70 m of

drilling. Since both the boreholes (PDBH-1 & PDBH-2) have intersected oxidation zone, the

third deeper level borehole PDBH-3 is planned at 200 m towards further north of borehole

PDBH-2 to intersect the projected zone of mineralisation (both MZ-II and MZ-III) at a

vertical depth of 120m, since in the earlier drilled boreholes the oxidized zone is followed by

a mineralised zone at depth containing fine disseminations and few specks of bornite,

chalcopyrite, specularite with occasional covellite mainly restricted to the secondary veins

and fracture planes.

7. Under the item investigation for copper and tungsten in Kamalpura Block of the Pur-Banera

Belt, Bhilwara District, Rajasthan, the first borehole KMB-1 commenced on 23.09.13 and

completed 200.50m drilling on 23.11.13. The borehole intersected quartzite, quart mica schist,

impure marble, garnetiferous amphibole mica schist, thin amphibolite band and calc-silicate

rocks. Two mineralized zones with cumulative thickness of 20m containing 0.20% to 0.30%

Cu (visual estimate) have been intersected in the borehole.

8. Under the item search for low silica SMS gradelimestone in Miniyun-ki-Dhani, East Block A,

Jaisalmer district, Rajasthan, all the assigned mapping and drilling targets have been achieved

in the area ahead of stipulated time schedule and the drilling results indicate that the target

horizons of so called Khuiala limestone, which is largely regarded as the SMS grade

limestone, has been intersected as thin bands with thickness varying from 0.5m to 3.5m. The

SMS grade evaluation will depend upon the decrepitating test.

9. Under the item search for low silica SMS grade limestone in North of Jiraj-ka-Toba,

Jaisalmer district, Rajasthan, the mapping and major part of core sampling have been

completed and in the boreholes significant thickness of the limestone has been intersected. 8,

out of 10 boreholes drilled, have intersected limestone ranging in thickness from 20 to 30m

containing thin bands of the hard and compact limestone. The calculation of the resources of

SMS grade limestone can only be attempted after the decrepitating test is done. The test will

be conducted after receiving the chemical analytical data.

10. Interaction is going on with the Project Authorities regarding the sponsored projects of

Engineering Geology and the programmes are being executed after signing of MOU and

receipt of full advance amount. Fresh request has been received from Dewas Project; Stage 3

and Stage 4 for taking up geotechnical investigation on detailed project report stage which

RAJASTHAN

Introduction

The Rajasthan state, encompassing an area of 3,42,239 sq. km between Latitudes N 23o 04′ to

N 30o 12′ and Longitudes E 69o 29′ to E 78o 17′, exposes rock sequences ranging in age from the

Archaean to the Recent times. Hard rocks are exposed over an area of 2,31,952 sq. km covering

nearly two-thirds of the state and the remaining one-third area with numeric of 1,10,287 sq. km

consists of desert sand and soft sediments of Quaternary age. The different provinces of the Western

Indian Shield from east to west are the BGC Province, the Aravalli-Delhi Province and the Trans-

Aravalli Province. The Archaean era is represented by the Banded Gneissic Complex of Heron

(1953), which has been reclassified as the Sandmata Complex and the Mangalwar Complex

belonging to the Bhilwara Supergroup. The Bhilwara Supergroup also includes the Hindoli Group

(erstwhile Gwalior Series). Plate tectonic concept could not be applied to explain orogenic structures

developed during the Archaean time. The Aravalli, Delhi, Vindhyan and Marwar Supergroups

represent Proterozoic rocks. The Aravalli Supergroup of rocks chiefly comprising metamorphosed

and complexly folded clastic sediments with minor chemogenic and organogenic assemblages and

interlayered basic volcanics, overlies the pre-Aravalli cratonic rocks with an erosional unconformity.

The rocks of the Delhi Supergroup occur in two sectors viz. in northeast Rajasthan (North Delhi

Fold Belt), disposed in three sub-basins (Alwar, Bayana and Khetri) and a narrow linear belt along

the Aravalli range (South Delhi Fold Belt). The Palaeo-Proterozoic witnessed both vertical tectonism

(in the North Delhi Fold Belt) and Proto-Plate tectonism (in the Aravalli Fold Belt). Compared to

Archaean time, the time interval of the orogeny was reduced during the Proterozoic and no

progressive deformation was envisaged. Plate tectonism was operative in the Khetri Fold Belt and

South Delhi Fold Belt and the orogeny had the shortest duration in the latter. Vindhyan platformal

sediments (Upper Proterozoic) demarcate the eastern boundary of the BGC craton and a Deccan

Trap cover delimits the southern boundary. Late Proterozoic igneous and sedimentary rock

assemblages, grouped under the Malani Igneous Suite along with crystallines of Archaean age

(equivalent of the BGC) and the Marwar Supergroup (equivalent to Vindhyans) occupy a large

part of the Trans-Aravalli Province. The rocks of the Marwar Supergroup are unconformably

overlain by the Bap Boulder Bed (representing Upper Carboniferous glaciation), the latter forming

the basement for the Badhaura Formation, the youngest Palaeozoic formation containing Permian

Flora and Fauna. Triassic rocks do not outcrop anywhere in Rajasthan but its subsurface presence

has been established. The Jurassic period commenced with a fluviatile environment which gave rise

to the Lathi sandstone containing fossil wood. The Mayakar Formation, which overlies the Badhaura

Formation with an unconformity, has been equated with the Lower Lathis. The deposition of

Lathi/Mayakar Formation culminated with the initiation of marine transgressions in different basins

viz. Jaiselmer basin in the west, the Barmer basin in the south-central and the Palana-Ganganagar

Shelf in the north and northwest Rajasthan. The Mesozoics are represented by the Lathi sandstone,

Jaisalmer limestone, Baisakhi shale, Bedesar sandstone, Parihar (Pariwar) sandstone and Abur

limestone, while Lower Tertiary includes Sanu sandstone, Khuiala limestone and Bandah limestone.

Pleistocene Shumar grits overlie the Tertiary sequence as capping in the form of ferruginous grit and

laterites. The Deccan Traps (Cretaceous to Eocene) have developed in southeast (Kota-Jhalawar

sector) and south-southeast Rajasthan (Chittorgarh-Banswara sector). The Deccan Traps do not show

any sign of major deformation. In all 19 flows are present in Rajasthan and overlapping of flows is

common in both the sectors. A large track of western Rajasthan constitutes the Thar Desert. The

continental sediments in the Thar Desert comprise a multiple episodic succession of fluvial, fluvio-

lacustrine and aeolian deposits.

Mineral Resources

Rajasthan, endowed with a rich mineral wealth, occupies a significant position on the mineral

map of the country. It possesses a wide range of mineral resources and holds considerable potential

for the future. The important metallic minerals with which the name of the State is intimately

associated are lead, zinc and copper. It is also richly gifted with a variety of non-metallic minerals.

The State has also enormous deposits of building stones like marble, different varieties of granite,

serpentinite etc. It is a leading producer of asbestos, soapstone/steatite, gypsum, rock phosphate,

calcite, feldspar, clay, etc. and presently, the State enjoys a monopoly in the production of

wollastonite, emrald, jasper and semi-precious garnet. In addition, the State has good deposits of

lignite and natural gas and oil in Bikaner, Nagaur and Barmer districts.

The rocks of the Bhilwara, Aravalli and Delhi Supergroups (Archaean to Proterozoic age) are

known repositories of basemetals and gold (Agucha, Pur-Banera, Dariba-Bethumbi, Zawar, Kayar-

Ghugra, Alwar, Khetri, Jagpura-Bhukia, Birantiya-Kalabar, Pindwara-Watera, Deri-Ambaji belts) as

Page 15: REGIONAL BRIEFING BOOK - Geological Survey of India

well as phosphorite (Jhamar Kotra). Gold in association with sulphides occurs in Bhukia area in the

Aravalli Belt and is being explored since the last decade.

During the present decade, significant discovery of copper has been made in the 22 km long

belt extending through Mina ka Nangal, Patan, Dokan, Baniwala Ki Dhani, Dariba and Toda (Nim

ka Thana – Patan Belt) along the western flank of the Alwar-Jaipur basin of the North Delhi Fold

Belt. Similarly, copper-gold mineralization, recorded from the Archaean basement complex at Dhani

Basri area along a ductile shear zone in proximity to a major lineament that extends from the

basement to the cover sequence, has opened a new vista of structurally controlled copper-gold

mineralization in the Raialos of the Delhi Supergroup and in its basement. Subsequently, copper-

gold-silver mineralization has been intersected in the Todi ka Bas area within the Raialos along a

sympathetic shear subparallel to the major lineament as mentioned above. Besides, porphyritic

copper occurrence centred on hydrothermally altered amphibolite (metadiorite) intruding a batholitic

granite has been noted in the North Delhi Fold belt also. In recent time, a probable ophiolite

sequence is found under the soil covered area in the Trans-Aravalli and will be explored to know the

extent of development of the ophiolite sequence and also for its economic potentiality. Similarly, it

is suspected that the sheared Dhani Granite along with its pseudotachylite veins, which is intrusive

into the Erinpura Granite in the Trans-Aravalli region, is likely to hold REE prospects.

Rajasthan has been the known centre for lead and zinc mining since centuries. At Zawar,

Udaipur many mines bear signatures of ancient workings. Zawar is the place recognized as first

ancient zinc smelting site in the world. In Rajasthan lead-zinc deposits occur within the Bhilwara

Supergroup of Archaean to Lower Proterozoic age (e.g. Agucha, Dariba-Rajpura, Pur-Banera),

Lower Proterozoic Aravalli Supergroup (e.g. Zawar) and Lower to Upper Proterozoic Delhi

Supergroup (e.g. Kayar-Ghugra).

Substantial reserves of copper ore have been established in Rajasthan. The main occurrences

of copper ore are located along the prominent mineralized belt, viz. Khetri copper Belt, Alwar

copper Belt, Pur-Banera Belt and South Delhi Fold Belt. Besides, recent investigations have brought

out a 20 km long copper belt (Nim ka Thana Belt) starting from Nimod in the south to Mina ka

Nangal in the north and further extending upto Gangutana in Haryana. Total ore reserves estimated

so far in this new belt is about 85.26 MT containing an average grade of 0.3% Cu with minor

amount of Ag. In recent years substantial deposits of copper have been established in Mundiyawas

Khera area in Alwar Basin. The resource estimation is in progress and the deposit is likely to turn

out to be one of the largest copper deposits in the state of Rajasthan. Similarly, the Karoi area in the

Pur-Banera Belt, an outcome of NGCM work, is likely to yield significant resource where

subsurface probing has been initiated in the month of June, 2012.

The iron ore deposits are located mainly in Jaipur, Jhunjhunu and Sikar districts and are

found associated with the Delhi Supergroup of rocks. One investigation has been completed during

the Field Season 2010-12 in South Rajasthan.

The Early to Middle Proterozoic Delhi Orogen (2200 – 1000Ma) occurring in Rajasthan and

adjacent areas of Haryana contain well-known occurrences of tungsten at Degana and Balda and tin

at Tosham, which are related to the late Proterozoic to Early Palaeozoic anorogenic Malani

Magmatism. Tungsten mineralization syntectonic with the Delhi Orogeny have been identified in

Central Rajasthan. The total resources of different types of ore as estimated by GSI/IBM are of the

order of 3550 tonnes of 65% WO3 grade. RSTDC estimated a reserve of 168 m. tones of ore with

0.09% WO3 in the Rewat hill at Degana. Drilling indicated a reserve of 0.6 m. tones of ore of 0.12%

WO3 grade.

Incidences of gold in multiple environments in several parts of Rajasthan are well known.

The occurrences are found in Bhilwara, Aravalli and Delhi Supergroups of rocks of Archaean to

Proterozoic age. Gold mineralization is hosted by a variety of rock types. In Banswara district in

southeastern Rajasthan, GSI discovered a very promising deposit namely ‘Bhukia Gold Belt’. It is

hosted in the basal supracrustals of the Aravalli Supergroup representing a metamorphosed volcano-

sedimentary sequence within the northwestern Precambrian craton and occupies an area of about 5.5

sq. km. Muscovite-biotite-quartz schist, dolomitic marble, keratophyre, actinolite-quartzite and

amphibolite/meta-pyroxenite are the major lithounits exposed in the area and together constitute a

separate lithopackage which rests over the older metamorphite. The auriferous massive, semi-

massive to disseminated sulphides present in the mineralized zones are concentrated along parallel

shear zones developed during the second phase of deformation. Auriferous sulphide mineral

assemblage is represented by pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, pyrite, chalcopyrite and lollingite. Gold is

present in the form of native gold as well as with lollingite associated with arsenopyrite. Total

resource estimated in the belt so far is 105.74 MT of gold with 0.5g/t gold at 1 meter stopping width

with 26359 tonnes of copper, 2634 tonnes of cobalt and 2108 tonnes of nickel.

Rajasthan accounts for about 96% of the country’s total production of asbestos. The asbestos

deposits are mainly located in the southern parts of the state, confined to the altered ultramafic

intrusives within the rocks of the Bhilwara, Aravalli and Delhi Supergroups. The main deposits are

located in Ajmer, Alwar, Bhilwara, Dungarpur, Pali, Sirohi and Udaipur districts.

Rajasthan is the prime producer of soapstone in India. Occurrences have been reported from

Dogetha-Jharna and Geejgarh in Jaipur; Dausa, Geuria and Chaipura in Bhilwara and Dhaota,

Dwain, Kamalpura, Rajauli, Garhi, Pura and Morra in Sawai Madhopur districts. In Udaipur,

Dungarpur and Banswara districts talc deposits/occurrences are associated with Rakhabdev

ultrabasic belt.

Rajasthan accounts for about 90% of total production of gypsum in the country. Reserves of

gypsum have been located mainly in Bikaner, Nagaur, Barmer, Jaisalmer, Pali and Ganganagar

districts. The most important deposits cover about 58.31 sq km area between Bhadwasi and

Dhakoria in Nagaur district.

The state has a large number of occurrences and small deposits of fluorite, reported from

Ajmer, Alwar, Bhilwara, Dungarpur, Jaipur, Jalor, Jhunjhunu, Nagaur, Sikar and Sirohi districts.

Rajasthan contributes a major share in the production of rock phosphate/phosphorite in India.

In the state, phosphorites occur in diverse lithological formations ranging in age from Lower

Proterozoic to Tertiary. The phosphorite deposits in Udaipur and Banswara districts are located

within the rocks of Aravalli Supergroup of Lower Proterozoic age while those of Alwar and Jaipur

districts occur in the rocks of Delhi Supergroup of Lower to Middle Proterozoic age and that of the

Chittorgarh district occur in the Lower Vindhyans of Middle Proterozoic age. Phosphorite

occurrences are also reported from the Mesozoic Formations of Jaisalmer. The important

phosphorite deposits located are those of Jhamar Kotra, Maton, Kanpur, Karbaria-ka-Gurha and

Dakan Kotra in Udaipur district, near Udaipur city.

Rajasthan is the leading producer of calcite and feldspar in the country. Occurrences of

calcite have been recorded from Sikar, Pali, Udaipur, Sirohi and Jaipur districts. Feldspar

occurrences have been reported from Ajmer, Alwar, Jaipur, Pali and Sikar districts.

The State of Rajasthan contributes about 50% production of china clay, 40% of ball clay and

10% of fire clay in the country. China clay is found to occur in Bhilwara, Bundi, Chittorgarh, Jaipur,

Jhalawar, Sawai Madhopur, Sikar, Pali districts, etc. while ball clay occurs in Alwar, Bikaner and

Bundi districts.

Rajasthan is the only wollastonite producing state in India. The extensive deposit is located

near Khera-Uparla in Pali-Sirohi districts within Erinpura Granite massif. Significant deposit is also

found in Belka Pahar near Khila in Sirohi district. Large deposits have been located in Gola-Alipura

area in Ajmer district.

Rajasthan has the main deposits of emerald and garnet in the country. Emeralds are available

mostly in Ajmer and Udaipur districts. The garnet occurrences are recorded from Ajmer, Bhilwara

and Tonk districts. Aquamarine is mainly recorded from Toda Raisingh and Hanotia in the Tonk

district. Amethyst is reported to occur near Kishangarh railway station in Ajmer district and from

Bidera, Girota, Didwana and Choup in Jaipur district. Chrysoberyl occurs in pegmatites of Ajmer

and Bhilwara districts.

The Mesozoic and the Cenozoic geological sequences are represented by sandstone, shale

and limestone found in Jaisalmer, Barmer and Palana basins and hosts Tertiary lignite, oil and

natural gas. In Rajasthan, large deposits of lignite occur in Tertiary formations of Middle Eocene age

in Barmer, Jaisalmer, Bikaner and Nagaur districts. Lignite-bearing two sub-basins are recognized,

namely the Palana-Kolayat embayment and Merta Road sub-basins in Bikaner-Nagaur districts. The

lignite occurrences are disposed along this belt stretching for about 70 km with a width of about 30

km. The belt is generally thicker in the south and thins out towards the north. Lignite seams have

been intersected near Palana, Gurha, Barsinghsar, Hadda, Narsingh-ki-Dhani, Raneri and Chak-

Vijayshinghpura. In Barmer district, lignite deposits are found to occur in Botiya-Bharka area,

Kapurdi-Jalipa area and Giral area. In the Merta Road sub-basin, lignite occurs in Merta Road block,

Mokala-Indawar block, Igair-Chhappra area and Kuchera-Igair area in Nagaur district.

Rajasthan has emerged on the oil map of India with the discovery of huge crude oil reserves

in Barmer-Sanchor basin. Crude oil reserves of 480 mt. and gas reserves of 3000 million cu. m have

so far been proved.

The Lower Palaeozoic sedimentary basins contain industrial mineral deposits including

potash bearing evaporite sequence. Minerals of evaporite sequences of the Quaternary sediments are

known to occur in the Thar Desert. Large areas of granite, sandstone and other suitable dimensional

stones are being delineated in the state. Work is in progress to identify older calcrete occurrences,

which may be likely repositories of strategic minerals like uranium.

GUJARAT

Introduction

Gujarat with an expanse of 1,96,024 sq.km, exposes rocks from Precambrian Era to Holocene period. The State is bounded by Latitude N20°30′00″ to N24° 30′00″ and Longitude 68°10′00″ to 74°30′00″. The state is having three different geographic regions which are namely Eastern Gujarat, Kachchh and Saurashtra/ Kathiawar regions. The Eastern Gujarat region shows a general southwesterly and west-ward slope from the dissected and denuded hilly terrain of Preacambrians to the alluvial plain which gradually merges into the Sea and gulf. The shield area of Gujarat state occurs in the eastern part and are occupied by the Archaean -Pre-Champaner Gneissic Complex and Pre-Lunavada Gneissic Complex (equivalent to BGC of Rajasthan); Palaeo - to Meso-Proterozoic Aravalli and Delhi Supergroups and Neoproterozoic Godhra-, Erinpura- and Idar- Granite. This Precambrian Belt is exhibited by dissected and denuded hills with intermittent pediplain. The Mesozoic rocks are exposed in Kachchh region and in the northern part of Saurashtra Plateau. It is represnted by the Pachchham, the Chari, the Katrol and the Bhuj Formations in Kachchh Region and by the Dhrangadhra Group, the Wadhwan Group in Saurashtra plateau and the Lameta Formation and the Bagh Beds in Kheda, Panch Mahals and Vadodara Districts (Eastern Gujarat). The Saurashtra Plateau in the west is separated from the eastern Gujarat undulating terrain by alluvial plain (with thick fluvial deposit underlain by Tertiary rocks). The basalt dominated ‘Deccan Trap’ with restricted acid and intermediate volcanics and intrusives is exposed as thick pile in the southern part of Gujarat, Saurashtra and as relatively less thick horizons in Kachchh Region. It represents broadly the geological time span from 80 Ma to 60 Ma. Tertiary rocks which overlap these volcanics, are present mainly in the southern part of Kachchh region, western and southern part of Saurashtra Plateau and also in the area bounded by Narmada and Tapi Rivers in the plains of South Gujarat. The Tertiary rocks start with laterite dominated trap-wash deposit which is indicative of humid tropical palaeo-climate of Palaeocene-Eocene age. Clay and carbonaceous shale dominated Kakdi Nadi Formation in Kachchh and Tadkeswar Formation in Narmada-Tapi basin and also south of Bhavnagar represent an important stratigraphic horizon for lignite. This extensive horizon indicative of fluvio-deltaic euxinic facies condition is overlain by the marine sedimentary deposits dominated with carbonate bearing fossils. These deposits occur as fossiliferous limestone as Fulra, Maniyara Fort and Gaj Formations in Kachchh and as Gaj and Dwarka Formations in Saurashtra. High energy fluvial deposits of Tertiary age representing the Jhagadia Formation occur near Bhavnagar and Rajpardi-Jhagadia (south of Narmada River). This formation is an important horizon for agate. Pleistocene age of Gujarat is represented by Miliolidae (foraminifera) bearing aeolian as well as marine limestone. This limestone occurs as valley fill clastic as well as beded non-clastic deposit. This limestone is classified under Miliolite Formation and is economically very important. Extensive aeolian deposit of Miliolite limestone is indicative of arid climatic condition which is succeeded by high energy fluvial sediments (humidification) represented by Kothara Formation. About 50% area of Gujarat is covered by unconsolidated Holocene sediments, majority of which is older and younger flood plain deposits of Narmada, Tapi, Mahi, Sabarmati and Banas rivers. These are classified under Katpur and Varahi Formations respectively. The coastal belt surrounding the Gulf of Kachchh and Gulf of Khambhat is dominated by younger tidal flat and older tidal flat deposits. The Little Rann of Kachchh which separates the Kachchh Mainland and Saurashtra Plateau, is dominated by fluvial sediments of Banas River (in the eastern part). The coastal deposits are classified under the Mahuva and the Fulai Formation respectively. The stabilized dune sands are classified under Akhaj, whereas the unstabilised one is named as the Jantral Formation. The Little Rann of Kachchh gradually merges into the Gulf of Kachchh. Fluviomarine deposits show vast

11

expance in the Rann areas (both Greater and little Rann area) as well as around the deltaic regions of major rivers and these are classified under Rann Formation. Mineral Resources

The wide range of mineral resources is principally located, beside other significant small and medium sized occurrences, along six belts in Gujarat in different geological set up.

Important minerals commercially exploited in Gujarat are bauxite, bentonite, basemetals, fireclay, fluorite, fuller’s earth, limestone, chalk, glass sand, manganese, graphite, lignite, petroleum and natural gas. Besides, several rocks are being used for building purposes and as dimension stones.

Bauxite, a mixture of gibbsite [Al(OH)3), boehmite (γ-AlO(OH)) and diaspore (α- AlO(OH)], is the chief source of aluminium. Bauxite deposits in the State are associated with laterite overlying the Deccan Traps or Tertiary sediments. Commonly two types of bauxite are noticed, viz. the massive blanket-type and the bouldery or nodular-type. Majority of the high-grade bauxite deposits belong to the nodular type. Kachchh district hosts the major bauxite deposits of the state. Segregated pockets of bauxite are reported from Jamnagar, Junagadh, Amreli, Bhavnagar, Kheda and Surat districts.

Bentonite is a mineral formed as a result of in situ weathering of basaltic flows of Deccan Traps. The lensoid bodies are generally found directly overlying the Deccan Traps and are underlain by laterite layers or a thin soil cover. The major Bentonite deposits are confined to Kachchh and parts of the Saurashtra region.

The reported occurrences of basemetal mineralization in Gujarat can be broadly classified into two categories, viz. associated with Precambrian metasediments and with Deccan Traps. Amba Mata (Ambaji) Deposit in Banaskantha district is the largest known deposit in Gujarat. The host rocks belong to Kumbhalgarh Group of Delhi Supergroup. The mineralization is mainly of lead and zinc with subordinate copper. The proved reserves are 8.29 million tones with average total metal content of 13.5% (lead- 5.5%, zinc- 6% and copper- 2%). Basemetal occurrences associated with metasediments are located in Vadodara, Panchmahal and Sabarkantha districts, whereas occurrences associated with Deccan Traps are located in Junagarh and Rajkot districts.

Fireclay is a general term for clays having capacity to withstand high temperature (15150 C and above) without any change other than dehydration and act as good refractory. The important fireclay deposits of Gujarat are associated with Upper Gondwana sediments, inter-trappean beds and Tertiary sediments. Fireclays are reported from Bharuch, Mahesana, Panchmahals, Rajkot, Sabarkantha and Surendranagar districts.

Gujarat is the largest producer of fluorite in India. World’s largest deposit is located at Ambadongar in Vadodara district. The total reserves of fluorite in the state are of the order of 11.61Mt having average 30% CaF2 content. Ambadongar deposit, in general, shows rich to very rich mineralization with CaF2 content occasionally as high as 97%.

In Gujarat Fuller’s earth or ‘Multani Mitti’ deoosits are associated with Lower Tertiary rocks and are located in Saurashtra region and Kachchh district.

The State of Gujarat is richly endowed with various types of limestone deposits, which are located in Amreli, Junagadh and Sabarkantha districts.

Gujarat is the only state in the country producing chalk. Good quality chalk is confined to the Porbandar taluka of Junagadh district. The deposit is associated with the Miliolitic Limestone of Quaternary age.

In Gujarat, glass sand deposits occur within Cretaceous sandstone in Vadodara, Kachchh, Mahesana, Sabarkantha and Surendranagar districts. Glass sand of good quality is generally used in the manufacture of glass.

Page 24: REGIONAL BRIEFING BOOK - Geological Survey of India

Important manganese deposits in Gujarat occur in Shivrajpur-Pani Belt and Anas area in Panchmahals district and in Ambala area, Vadodara district. Manganese ores are associated with metasedimentary rocks of the Champaner and Lunavada Groups of Aravalli Supergroup.

Graphite deposits in Gujarat are associated with the rocks of Champaner Group, mainly with the graphitic phyllite, in the form of bands. Commercially important graphite deposits occur along a strike length of 100km in Vadodara and Panchmahals districts. The thickness of graphite layers varies from a few centimeters to as much as 18m. Occurrences of graphite are also noted in Banaskantha and Sabarkantha districts.

There are three major lignite bearing areas in Gujarat, viz. Panandhro Lignite field and adjoining areas (Akri Moda, Jhulrai-Waghapadar, Lakhpat and Matanomadh) in Kachchh district, Bhuri area in Bharuch district and in Khadsalia area, Bhavnagar district. Lignite is associated with the rocks of the Early Tertiary age. Coal seams of Upper Gondwana age have been reported from the Than formation of the Dharangadhra Group (Lower Cretaceous) in Khakhrathal and Than area in Surendranagar district and thin coal seams have been reported to occur near Guneri, Kachchh district.

Gujarat is one of the largest oil producing state in the country. The bulk of the on-shore resources occur in the Cambay Basin. The Ankleshwar oil field, Bharuch district, Cambay oil field, Kheda district, Sanand oil field, Ahmedabad district and Kalol oil field, Mahesana district are among the major oil producing areas. Besides, some other areas where oil and gas occurrences have been reported are in Vadodara, Bhavnagar and Surat districts. Mineral Districts Places Remark Petroleum

Geotechnical Evaluation of Water Resources Development Projects in Rajasthan and Gujarat (Item No. 90) : Foundation grade geological mapping of d/s halves of the stilling basin in 08 nos of block was carried out on 1:100 scale covering an area of approximately 1480 m2. The rock exposed at the foundation grade level is orthoquartzite with interbands of shale. These beds are striking in N30°W-S30°E with 15° to 30° dip in southwest direction. Sub-vertically disposed thick shear zones have been observed in bock no 12 &13. These shear zone needs proper stripping along weakness zone and to be backfilled by suitable concrete. Vasa Minor Irrigation project - Foundation grade mapping of overflow & Non- overflow section between Rd-108 m and RD-160 m was carried out covering an area of 1144 m2. The rockmass exposed in the excavated section at the present level comprise moderately jointed, hard and compact fine grained metabasic rock intruded by granite body at the extreme left portion. A thick shear zone is noticed in the granite body with its effects on adjacent metabasic rock. The rock is traversed by four sets of joints. The in situ rockmass is quite competent, but when excavated breaks into small rhombic pieces due to all pervasive incipient weak planes developed parallel to the joint sets. No request was received from Project Agencies of ongoing projects. Fresh request for the projects not included in FS are received and the process for taking up these projects were also initiated. Project work will be taken up only after singing MoU and receiving the advance payment on tentative cost estimation of the MoU.

Desertification impact assessment in the margin areas of Thar Desert, Rajasthan. (Item No. 97): Attended analysis of time series satellite imageries with assistance from Dr. L.K. Soni, Mineralogist for change detection study in Sam-Dabri area, Jaisalmer. Attended field work in Sam-Dabri area (part of toposheets 40J/5, 6, 9, and 10) for preparation of geomorphological map, land use/land cover and desertification status map, and quaternary geological map of the area. Sites at Sam, Lamba Par, Rahu ka Par and Mehboob ka Par has been identified for monitoring and study of sand accretion/deflation. Soil sampling and water sampling of the open wells and tube wells available in the area is also carried out. Carried out field work in Sam and adjacent areas (part of toposheet 40J/9). The area is occupied mainly with sand dunes and sand sheet with limited scattered rocky exposures mainly of indurated gritty and ferruginous sandstone and weathered yellow limestone occurring as low heighted mounds in flat-undulating desert terrain. The sand dunes in the area can invariably be classified as: - i) On the basis of mobility: Stable dunes, Semi-stable and Unstable or mobile dunes, Sand-sheet (semi-stable and mobile); ii) On the basis of forms: Longitudinal, transverse and Barchans/Barchanoids. Field check for preparation of land use/land cover and desertification status map, geomorphological and sub-watershed map, sand deflation and accretion study has been carried out. Sampling of water and soil has been carried out. To assess the impact of desertification in fringe areas of Thar desert, Rajasthan (Item No. 98): Field work was carried out in the Bap-Malar Lake, Jodhpur dist., Rajasthan. Hand auger drilling was carried out up to a cumulative depth of 4.7m during the month. Carried out well inventory and measured the depth of hard rock below lake sediments to identify

subsurface topography. Field work was carried out in the Bap-Malar Lake, Jodhpur dist., Rajasthan. Hand auger drilling was carried out up to a cumulative depth of 16.2m during the month. Total cumulative depth of 40m has been carried out in the Lake. Carried out well inventory and measured the depth of hard rock below lake sediments to identify subsurface topography. Based on the data collected it is observed that the Lake shows maximum depth at the central portion with the depth of rock recorded at 7.1m below ground level. The periphery of the lake show shallower depth with the minimum depth of rock at 1.7m below ground level towards the north-eastern portion of the lake.Field work was also carried out in the Pokaran Lake, Jaisalmer dist., Rajasthan. Hand auger drilling through 4 boreholes was carried out up to a cumulative depth of 11m during the period.

Petrology Division WR

Petrogenetic Evolution of the Bidasar Ophiolite Suite, Churu district, Rajasthan. (Item No. 99): During the above mentioned period, the officers have carried mapping on 1:5000 scale in toposheet no. 45I/6. The general trend of the mine pits around Gunpaliya is NE-SW direction. The rock types exposed in the mine pits are the altered ultramafics and basalt. The altered ultramafic rocks are red brown, light green and dark green in colour and have been subjected to various degrees of serpentinization. Within the altered ultramafics particularly in light and dark green variety, lenses of light to dark green and black colored mafic fragments have been observed, which are intruded due to the presence of fault. These faulted fragments could represent disaggregated parts of altered ultramafics and basalt. The serpentinite is traversed by numerous criss-cross veins of secondary carbonate, siderite, magnetite and asbestos. Brucite has been observed in the altered ultramafic rocks and mostly found along the fault plane. The basalt is black in color, fine grained and highly jointed. It is exposed in the southwestern parts of the mine pits in Gunpaliya. The contact between the altered ultramafics and basalt is faulted. A thick zone of calcrete of about 4–6 meters has developed as capping over ultramafic rocks. A fault zone trending in N55E-S55W direction, dipping moderately towards SE, passes through the mine pits. The fault is marked by the presence of fault gauge material, slickensides, dragging and development of close spaced criss cross fractures, which are filled by secondary silica and carbonate. The officers along with Director, Petrology Division, have carried out the traverses in Surwas, Chappar, Charwas, Rupeli and Dunkar. The rock types encountered in the area are gabbro-diorite with sheeted dykes, chlorite schist, pyroxinite altered to amphibolite, spertentinite and greywacke. Around Surwas, Gabbro-diorite is observed in a number of wells. It is coarse grained and contains pyroxene and plagioclase. These rocks are associated with chlorite schist, which is probably a retrograde product of gabbro-diorite. The gabbro-diorite is traversed by vertical to subvertical dykes, which are fine grained, dark green in colour and basic in composition.The pyroxenite is dark green and coarse grained and is altered to amphibolite. The serpentinite rocks are of three types. The golden brown, greenish and wine red coloured with network of fine veins made of carbonate, asbestos and iron rich minerals. In one of the well sections, pyroxenite and gabbro-diorite occurs together.

(S.U. Gujarat)

Petrogenesis of Lamprophyres and Carbonatites from North-West Indian Deccan Volcanic Province based Mineral Chemical and Geochemical Studies (Item No. 100): The area around Ambadongar exposes Calcio- and Ferro- carbonatite rocks in the form of ring dykes intruded into basalt. The sub-volcanic alkaline ring complex of Amba Dongar consists of carbonatites, nephelinites and phonolites, and is well known for hosting the largest fluorite deposits of India associated with carbonatite. Around Ambadongar area, in Kawant to Kadipani Traverse, beautiful cross bedding (current and tabular type) in sandstone of Bagh beds is observed. The

Page 39: REGIONAL BRIEFING BOOK - Geological Survey of India

27

carbonatites, nephelinites and phonolites have intruded into the sandstone with interbedded purple shale and limestones of the Cretaceous Bagh Formation and the overlying Deccan basalts, thereby doming up the overlying volcano-sedimentary sequence. Differentiation of the primary carbonatite melt is evidenced by the sequential emplacement of different generations of carbonatite, commencing with the intrusion of a large ring dyke of calcitic carbonatite (sovite) followed by a minor fraction of dolomitic carbonatite (beforsite), and late-stage intrusions of ankeritic carbonatite that entered the sovitic ring structure in the form of plugs and dykes. Apart from forming the major ring dyke, sovite also occurs as large and small plugs within the surrounding sandstone terrain. Occurrences of alvikites, the dyke variety of calcitic carbonatite, are fairly widespread with the majority exposed in the fluorite mine workings as well as in numerous road cuttings.

4 -PLAN WORK ENVISAGED FOR FIELD SEASON 2013-14 IN GSI, WR

Proposals of GSI Western Region for Field Season 2013-14 have been drawn keeping in

mind the national priorities of social, agricultural, environmental and mineral sectors during the

XIIth plan period and also on the basis of results of the investigation undertaken during the XIth

plan period. The thematic mapping programmes have been primarily drawn to resolve some of the

outstanding problems of Precambrian crustal evolution in this part of the subcontinent.

Environmental and geotechnical studies of important development projects in the states of

Rajasthan and Gujarat will continue to have priority besides continuing with the geochemical

mapping primarily for delineating targets for mineral exploration. It is also proposed to continue

with seismological studies in Gujarat states to demarcate earthquake prone and safe areas.

Modernization of laboratories to give more precise and subtle analysis and establishment of Local

Area Network and its conditionality in the geoinformatic system is being further pursued.

The following table shows the programmes which have been launched successfully during

the Field Season 2013 – 14. The new officers who joined after completion of 35th OCG have been

deployed in the formulated programmes.
