An attempt has been made to produce an international metabasic rock standard from the Rudraprayag Fonnation of Himalayan orogenic belt. The bulk sample collected has been processed and subjected to homogeneity test (F test). The salient petrographic features. proximate analysls and the F-ratio of the different fractions are presented in this paper.
