Deep Seismic Sounding (DSS) studies were initiated for the first time in India under a 3-year Indo-Soviet collaboration agreement starting 1972, along a 600km long roughly ENE-WSW profile which lies near 14°N latitude, extending from Kavali on the east coast of India to Udipi on the west coast.
A crustal section is depicted along the Kavali-Udipi profile, showing a large number of reflectors from about 2 km to about 50 km depth. The 600 km long section consists of 17 major blocks, besides a few smaller ones. It is cut up by 15 major deep faults and two major low angle thrusts. In addition there are 5 faults/thrusts extending to intermediate depths. The geological evolution of this part of the shield probably began in Early Proterozoic with the formation of the Dharwar geosyncline between Parnapalle and Agumbe, This was divided into two parts by the uplift of the block where Closepet granites are now exposed. The Dharwars in the eastern part are now almost completely eroded, exposing their basement. The Moho here is at an average depth of 35-36 km, going down to 38 km below Dharmavaram. In the western part, where there is a large thickness of Dharwars still present, Moho is more or less flat at a depth of 38 km, going down to 41 km below Holalkere and rising about 36 km below Chennagiri, The basement of the schist belt here varies from 4 to 7 km in depth.
The Cuddapahs must have been deposited starting near Parnapalle eastward due to en-echelon type faulting. Moho goes down from 34km below Parnapalle to 40 km below Duttaluru. The block between Maidukuru and Malepadu subsided later to create a fresh depression in which the Kurnools were deposited. In general, the basement of the Cuddapahs is at a depth of 8-10 km. The Cuddapahs, on their eastern margin, have been subjected to a major low angle thrust.

Deep Seismic Soundings (DSS) were carried out by the National Geophysical Research Institute, Hyderabad, during December 1975-April 1976, along a profile across Koyna. The studies of the data reveal a number of reflection horizons below the Deccan Traps up to the Moho discontinuity. Below the Deccan Traps, the crustal section along this profile is cut into two blocks by a deep fault west of Koyna. The eastern block is further cut by another deep fault which affects only the deeper horizons including Moho. Recent movements along the first of these deep faults, west of Koyna, appear to be responsible for the major Koyna earthquake of 1967 and subsequent seismicity in this region. The Moho depth in the western block is around 40 km in the vicinity of the deep fault and is of about 30 km at the west coast of India. In the eastern block the Moho boundary lies at an average depth of 36 to 38 km.
The thickness of the Deccan Traps along Koyna profile varies from o.4 km in the east to about 1.5 km near the west coast. The velocity in Deccan Traps is found to vary between 4.7 to 4.9 km/sec, and in the Pre-Trap basement it varies between 5.9 to 6.1 km/sec.

The crustal structure along Ujjain-Mahan profile reveals a layered structure in the vertical direction and block structure in the lateral direction. This profile from north to south is divided into four crustal blocks: I (Ujjain-Sanwer), II (Indore-Dorwa), III (Dorwa-Tapti) and IV (Tapti-Mahan) which were relatively displaced up or down during different times along deep faults bounding them and extending up to the Moho discontinuity. The depth to Moho varies between 37 to 42 km along the entire length of the profile with a velocity jump of 7.3 to 7.8 km/sec across the boundary. It is concluded that during Precambrian, blocks I and II north of Dorwa were downthrown with respect to block III leading to the development of the Vindhyan basin in that region. Blocks III and IV being uplifted at that time, formed the land part and hence no Vindhyan sedimentation took place there. Subsequently during Gondwana times, reverse tectonic movement resulted in downfaulting of block III where Gondwana sedimentation took place. During this period, blocks I and II formed the land part and hence no Gondwanas were deposited there. A shallow refraction boundary at a depth of 8 to 12 km has also been observed along this profile with a velocity jump from 6.0 to 6.9 km/sec, which may represent the Conrad discontinuity in this region.
In the Ujjain-Dorwa section comprising blocks I and II, under a thin cover of about 100 m of Deccan Traps, there lie Cretaceous Lameta beds (200m thick) and Vindhyan quartzites (lOa m thick) and Bijawars (200 to 300 m thick). Thus the total sedimentary thickness above the crystalline basement is hardly 600metres in this region. On the other hand, the Dora-Mahan section, consisting of blocks III and IV, has a maximum thickness of about 1.7 km Gondwana sediments underlying 400 metres of Deccan Traps. This hidden Gondwana basin is believed to be a northwestward continuation under the Deccan Trap of the exposed Gondwana-Godavari graben.

A systematic analysis of refraction data obtained in West BengaI basin, has been carried out to bring into focus the utility of the seismic refraction data in delineating fault zones. The study clearly points out the different conspicuous signatures present in the refraction travel time data, associated with the shallower fault zones affecting the top sedirnentry column and the crystalline basement.Keywords

Deep Continental Reflection Studies along the Nagaur-Jhalawar profile across the Aravalli-Delhi Fold Belt indicate that in most of the units comprising the seismic profile the lower crust (LC) lies towards west of their present surface exposures. Based on the reflectivity characteristics of the LC. which are in general agreement with the globally accepted norms, the Nagaur-Jhalawal profile can be broadly divided into five zones: 1) the moderately reflective Marwar Basin (MB), 2) the highly reflective Delhi Fold Belt (DFB), 3) the poorly reflective Bhilwara Granite Complex (BGC), 4) the highly reflective Hindoli Group (HG) including a thrust zone, and 5) the moderately reflective Vindhyan Basin (VB). The most commonly accepted reasons for high lower crustal reflectively are: 1) presence of free fluids. 2) crustal-scale ductile shear zones and 3) mafic intrusions and underplating with partial melts derived from the upper mantle.
High reflectivity of LC in the ADFB can possibly be assigned to primary lithologic variation in the metamorphic facies layers and Precambrian shear zones that were formed during compressional phase of orogeny. The poor reflectivity of LC in the BGC. comprising the Sandmata and Mangalwar Complexes, may be due to vertically oriented igneous intrusions which have disturbed its lamellar character. The high reflectivity in the thrust zone and LC in the HG suggests that it is due to a totally different composition than that of BGC and may be related to metamorphic layering.

Lithological, gravity, magnetic, and seismic data within 100 Km corridor of the 400 km long seismic reflection profile are compiled to constitute the NW-SE Nagaur-Jhalawar Geotransect. The transect sequentially cuts across the Neo-Proterozoic Marwar Basin (MB) on the northwest, the Palaeo/Mesoproterozoic Delhi Fold Belt (DFB), the middle/late Archaean Bhilwara Gneissic Complex (BGC) and the MesolNeoproterozoic to early Palaeozoic Vindhyan Basin (VB) at the southeast. The BGC and DFB belts show polyphase deformation and metamorphism.
The BGC within the transect, consists of Sandmata Granulite Complex, followed by amphibolite facies Mangalwar Complex and Greenschist facies Hindoli/Sawar groups. The BGC show evidence of crustal reworking at c.3.0 Ga. The DFB is represented by amphibolite facies metavolcanic-metasedimentary shallow marine sequences and is tectonically highly disturbed. The DFB deposits (c. 2.0 - 1.5 Ga.) were subjected to tectonic deformation during Delhi orogeny (c. 1.5 Ga.), which is marked by syntectonic granitic plutonism. Both, the BGC and OFB also appear to have been affected by Neoproterozoic thermal events and granitic plutonism. The Neoproterozoic MB consists of clayevaporite sequences of shallow oscillatory basin deposits.
Seismic, gravitylmagnetic and magneto-telluric techniques could delineate a number of shallow to deep faults, intrusive bodies and a high conductivity zone. The total magnetic intensity shows a regional increase towards southeast. The Bouguer anomaly values show a steep rise of upto 80 mGal towards the boundary of OFB and BGC. Based on the seismic studies, doubling of the crust under the OFB and vertical intrusion of high density material under the BGC are inferred. The upper crust is, in general, transparent in its reflectivity while the lower crustal reflectivity is high in the transect area, except in the BGC and the VB. A thrust boundary, dipping NW, is present at the eastern margin of the BGC and could be traced up to 30 km depth. The Moho is at a depth of 36-38 km under the MB. Multiple Moho reflections are identified in the DFB crust, the deepest being at 45-50 km depth. In some part of the BGC the Moho can not be identified but in parts it is traced at about 50 km depth, with southeast up dip, before becoming subhorizontal at depth of 41-42 km. It becomes shallower to about 30 km depth at the SE end under the VB.

Skips/shadow zones in the first arrival travel seismic time data (refraction) help in delineating hidden low velocity formations sandwiched between two high velocity zones. Efficacy of this processing methodology has been successfully tested utilising analog refraction data acquired along a profile located in the Deccan Trap country. The 2D velocity depth details also suggest probable presence of hidden Sub-Trappean Gondwana formations.Keywords

Recent surge in intraplate seismicity has led to detailed geological and geophysical investigations, covering different continental segments of India including seismogenic region of Latur. A synthesis of such data sets to understand the prevailing tectonic and thermal state of the Lithosphere beneath Latur region, that witnessed a large scale human loss due to 1993 seismic activity, has revealed shallow surfacing of denser deeper crustal segments which may have resulted due to ongoing active subsurface tectonic activity like uplift and erosion since geological past. Below this region, Moho temperature exceeds 500°C, heat flow input from the mantle is quite high (29-35 mW/m2) and the asthenosphere is shallow (∼100 ± 10 km). It is suggested that stress generated by ongoing upliftment and related subcrustal thermal anomaly is concentrating in this denser and stronger mafic crust within which earthquakes tend to nucleate. In all likelihood, the seismic activity witnessed in the region may stem from the deep crustal/lithospheric dynamics rather than the role of fluids at the hypocentral depth.Keywords
