The clay mineralogy of soils from the moist teak forests of South Chanda Forest Division (Maharashtra) indicates that illite and kaolinite are the dominant minerals and quartz occurs as an accessory mineral in the clay fraction. The soils are well drained and kaoliniziation is the dominant clay forming process as indicated by the clay mineralogy It is inferred that the loss of bases due to kaolinization may not get adequately replenished by the nutrient cycling through inorganic and organic substances, if the balanced ecosystem is disturbed. It is, therefore, necessary to protect these forests against over exploitation for sustained yield and site protection.

developed on fine grained argillaceous sandstone, lateritic rock, shale, granitegneiss and schist has been conducted with a view to find out the fertility status of mineral soils. These soils contains minerals that are poor sources of plant
nutrients and have been planted with fast growing Eucalyptus hybrid after
clearfelling the indigenous forests. The study indicates that it is important to
protect these nutrient poor soils against any site degradation that may arise
due to the high nutrient uptake under such man made forests.

A comparative mineralogical study of forest soils of the Karnataka statedeveloped on fine grained argillaceous sandstone, lateritic rock, shale, granitegneiss and schist has been conducted with a view to find out the fertility status of mineral soils. These soils contains minerals that are poor sources of plant

Incorporation of geomorphological observations to forestry has been stressed in this article. The current emphasis in the country either on afforestation or on the rational use of forest products. Due emphasis on Geomorphology can be of advantage in such activities.- Mineralogical Studies in some Soils of North Bihar Afforestation Areas

Quantitative and qualitative mineralogical studies were carried out on soil samples collected from North Bihar afforestation areas, especially those of Champaran District. The data on mineralogical composition of fine sand fractions of the soils bearing poor as well as good stands of forest plantations have been presented and discussed in order to gain more complete knowledge of the mineral reserves and to correlate the same with the growth status. In general, the light minerals form the bulk of the suite. The proportion of garnet is the highest among the heavy, minerals. From the general assemblage the minerals appear to be mosty, characteristic of the metamorphic rocks. Apparently, no direct correlation between the mineral content and the growth status was observed.- Petrochemistry of the Eastern Part of Piparan Granite, Doda District, Jammu Lesser Himalaya
