6.Process of Deposition Weathering cycle of River (Fluvial) comprises of three stages viz. erosion, transportation and deposition. A river/stream in its course to mouth erodes the country rocks through which it flows. Erosion comprises of mechanical as well as chemical process nowadays man-made erosion also contributes. These eroded sediments then transported by river in suspension or solution until the river runs outs of its capacity to transport. When river enters its flood plain or reaches its mouth its velocity gets checked due to widening of its channel and deposition of sediments takes place. Natural leeves, oxbow lakes are depositional features formed by river in its course. Deltas/Alluvial fans/plains are generally formed when a river ends in a ocean/sea. River sediments are generally well sorted and well rounded. Following factors impacts river cycle of weathering:

1. Annual Rainfall 2. Geographical Relief 3. Geology of the river course 4. Discharge of river and its tributaries 5. Activities nearby rivers (Man-made activities; forestation/deforestation, mining, ghats) 6. Engineering structures (Dams, diversions) 7. Climatic conditions.

9.Physiography of the district

Physiographically Balrampur-Ramanujganj district can be roughly sub- divided into Rihand basin, Kanhar Basin, Changbakhar-Deogarh hills. originates from Churi-Matiringa hill of Mainpat Tehsil and flows in northern direction. During its course it drains Wadrafnagar, part of Rajpur and part of Balrampur Tehsil along with its tributaries. Rising from Bakhona hill of Bagicha Tehsil (Jashpur) flows in north-east direction and meets in Satna (M.P.). Kanhar and its tributaries drain Kusmi, Sankargarh, Balrampur and Ramnujganj. Changbakhar-Deogarh series is a part of Satpura mountain range. It forms the northwest boundary of Chhattisgarh. It extends from Ramanujganj, Kusmi, Ambikapur, Manendragarh, Baikunthpur, Pratapur tehsil of Balrampur, Surguja, Koriya and Surajpur districts.

Balrampur 11.Geology and Mineral Wealth: The district comprises rock formations of Archaen to Eocene age. Granitoids and the metasediments belonging to the Chota Nagpur Gneissic complex, forms the basement of overlying Gondwana sediments, Lameta beds and Deccan Traps. The Precambrian metamorphics of Archaean to Proterozoic age comprise granite gneiss, amphibolites, metasediments etc. Pegmatite and quartz veins forms minor intrusive. Major Portion of the district is covered by Archaens and thereafter by Chota Nagpur Gneissic Complex. Archeans dominate the northern part whereas rocks of Chota Nagpur Gneissic complex are dominant lithology in the southern part of the district. Gondwana rocks are exposed in central part and south western parts of district. Gondwanas of central part have undergone diastrophic events and display numerous faults of varying extension. Due to aforesaid diversified geological profile, Balrampur district is bestowed with rich resources of economic minerals. Polymetallic mineralization has been reportd in Oranga-Dhulangi mineralized zone. Calc-silicate rocks with Galena-Chalcopyrite-Sphalerite- Scheelite association and Pyrite-Arsenopyrite-Chalcopyrite association have been observed here. Graphite bearing schists have also been recorede in the village Oranga and surroundings. Laterite present in district is aluminous at places and contains pockets of pisolitic and massive bauxite. SECL, a Coal India Subsidary is operating an open cast coal mines at Bhatgaon area. Hindalco (Aditya Birla Group) is holding mining leases of Bauxite at Samri, Kudag and Tatijharia villages of Kusmi block. S.J. Minerals is holding mining lease of Graphite at Indravatipur, Ramanujganj block.
