Major and trace (including rare earth)element abundances, mineral compositions and Nd and Sr isotopic compositions have been determined for the mafic dykes (classified as basanite) and gabbro of the northern Island belt of Kutch rift basin. These are petrographically and geochemically distinct but have similar mantle normalized trace element patterns Measured87Sr/86Sr ratios in the mafic dykes vary from 0 70428 to 0 70593 &Nd(i) varies from 0 27 to - 6 5. The isotopic compositions are broadly similar to that of Mahabaleshwar flows of western Deccan volcanic province. The geochemical character suggests the influence of fractional crystallisation in the evolution of the basanite dykes. The parent magma was enriched in K, Ti, Na and P suggesting derivations from an enriched source during the early phase of lifting Palaeomagnetic data on the dykes show the presence of both normal polarity direction at Dm = 338°, Im=-47° and reverse polarity direction at Dm=14l° and Im=34° indicating multiple intrusion Virtual Geomagnetic Pole(VGP) for the basanite dykes differs from Deccan Super pole suggesting a magmatic event older than the main Deccan eruption.Keywords
