Palaeoseismic evidence is recorded for the first time from the upland region near the crest of the Deccan plateau. Some of the soft-sediment deformation structures from Quaternary sediments in the Chandanapuri valley are interpreted as seismites. These sediments rest nonconformably upon the Deccan Traps and are inherently anomalous vis-a-vis their location in the river valley. Based on various features and their position in the succession of the sediments, these seismites are provisionally attributed to a single event with an inferred magnitude > 6.5 M, which occurred 5000 - 7000 years ago. This report highlights the need to re-evaluate the traditional perception of the aseismic nature of the main Deccan plateau.Keywords

Detailed measurements of a more than 55 m wide tract of the Chikshellikeri Limestone, immediately underlying the Muchkundi Quartzite were undertaken in the Kaladgi Basin. This sequence is constituted of 3218 measured laminations from more than 1550 mudstone - packstone couplet. They are interrupted by 57 horizons of Intraformational Limestone Breccias. The distribution pattern of these horizons within the sequence is evaluated within the framework of the depositional environments which yielded the limestone sequence and they are recognised as products of events of penecontemporaneous basin-floor instability. It is shown that disconformity separating the Bagalkot Group into two Subgroups (earlier attributed to two separate transgresive events) was formed as a result of reorganisation of the basin configuration in response to synsedimentary tectonics and not as a result of a second transgression of the contemporary sea.Keywords

Conophytoll cylindricus, Collenia columnaris, Collenia symmetrica and Collenia undosa are reported from the dolomitic intercalations within the Mehdikhera Chertbreccia Formation, exposed in the Choral river valley near Barwah, in Khargoan District, Madhya Pradesh. There is a lack of consensus regarding the origin of this Formation and it has been considered to be equivalent of Bijawars. The present report of stromatolites conclusively points to its sedimentary origin and suggests a need for a reappraisal of the age.- An Unusual Evaporite Association from the Papaghni Group, Cuddapah Basin

The seven supracrustal, epicratonic Purana basins occupy more than a fifth of the area of Precambrian exposures in the Indian Shield. They are repositories of Proterozoic shallow marine sediments, resting unconformably on the eroded surfaces of the older rocks; and are preserved in an unmetamorphosed and marginally deformed state. These sequences have comparable characters though their mutual differences are quite significant, indicating that each one of the host basins had an independent evolutionary history.
The gross sedimentological contents, associated igneous rocks, structural and metamorphic features of the Purana basins and their geographical and temporal proximity with the Middle Proterozoic Mobile Belt are examined to evaluate the broad geotectonic framework within which they evolved. These "polyhistory, continental" basins are apparently analogous to the "Atlantic-type" passive continental margin systems associated with extensional tectonic regimes. The Bhima basin is an exceptional case of a "simple", transtensional, "pull-apart" type basin, while some of the others were probably initiated as "back-arc" basins.

The lowest sequence of the Lokapur Subgroup from the Bagalkot Group manifests the earliest transgression in the Meso-Neoproterozoic Kaladgi Basin. It is characterised by four sedimentary lithofacies namely, (i) sandstone facies (dominantly quartzose-arenites with minor interbedded conglomerates and gravel beds), (ii) argillite facies (including siltstones and shales), (iii) carbonate facies (primarily dolomites which are often cherty and stromatolitic) and, (iv) chertbreccia facies (poorly bedded and silicified).
These four macrofacies have been studied in the gently folded and faulted exposures along the southern margin of the Kaladgi Basin. An unfolded fence of their distribution and mutual dispositions is reconstructed so as to enable the visualization of their syndepositional architecture. Modifications of the existing classification of the examined sequence of the Lokapur Subgroup are suggested on the basis of this restoration and in context of process responsive lithostratigraphy.
The Kaladgi Basin is interpreted to have been initiated in an extensional tectonic regime. All the four recognised macrofacies were deposited more or less simultaneously during the earliest transgression in this basin and their architecture was governed by synsedimentary events of sagging of the uneven basin floor along an array of East-West trending growth faults with northern downthrows.

Several horizons of a unique lithotype called "chertbreccia" are interbedded within the Proterozoic platform sediments of the Peninsular India. These cherty rocks with brecciated texture appearing as blocky masses were earlier diversely interpreted as being products of disparate processes such as fault-zone breccias, collapse breccias, and so on. Two of these horizons, one from the Kaladgi Basin (Dharwar Craton) and the other from the Dhar Forest Inlier of the Vindhyanchal Basin (Bundelkhand - Aravalli Craton) are compared in context of their geological setting, field relations and petrological constitution. A model of the mode of development of these peculiar rocks is reconstructed, taking into account their characters and limitations of previous interpretations. They are interpreted as transported debris deposits of syntectonogenic material released during the episodic activity of the growth faults of the Kaladgi and Vindhyanchal Basins that was diagenetically silicified.Keywords
