Abstract The Aravalli Craton, representing the Precambrian nucleus of northwestern India, consists of the Archean Banded Gneissic Complex (BGC; 3.3–2.5 Ga) overlain by …

Large igneous provinces (LIPs) are high volume, short duration pulses of intraplate magmatism consisting mainly of flood basalts and their associated plumbing system, but …
The paleogeographic position of India within the Paleoproterozoic Columbia and Mesoproterozoic Rodinia supercontinents is shrouded in uncertainty due to the paucity of …
Large igneous provinces (LIPs) and especially their dyke swarms are pivotal to reconstruction of ancient supercontinents. The Dharwar craton of southern Peninsular India …
The observation is made that there are very strong similarities between the supercontinents Columbia, Rodinia and Pangea. If plate tectonics was operating over the past 2.5 billion …
Based on trend, cross-cutting relationships and U-Pb dating, Precambrian mafic dykes in the Singhbhum craton, earlier collectively identified as 'Newer Dolerite Swarm', have been …
Here we report new paleomagnetic and geochronologic results from the Dharwar craton (south India) from 2.37 to 1.88 Ga. The presence of a∼ 85,000 km 2 radiating dyke swarm …
Palaeomagnetic analysis of the Lakhna Dykes (Bastar Craton, India) yields a palaeopole at 36.6° N, 132.8° E, dp= 12.4°, dm= 15.9°, and the UPb zircon age obtained from one of the …
A precise U–Pb baddeleyite age (2251±4 Ma) has been obtained for an ENE-trending dyke exposed near the Chhura region of the Bastar craton, and additional dykes of similar trend …
