In this programme the stream sediment/slope wash samples are to be collected on 1 km X 1 km gridas per SOP of GSI on NGCM and there form the basic unit of sampling in this programme. The area of Toposheet no 57I/11 covers parts of Kurnool and Prakasam districts, Andhra Pradesh and is bounded by latitudes 15°15' to 15°30' N and longitudes 78°30' to 78°45' E. Physiographically, the area can be divided in to 1) Kundair Plains in the west and 2) Nallamalai hill Ranges in the east. The flat Kundair Plain has a very gentle slope towards south. The maximum and minimum elevations in the area are 797m and 187m above m.s.l., respectively. Nallamalai Range constitutes a number of parallel north-south ridges. These are cut by the Gandaleru river following the Nandikanama Pass. The Marla Konda (785m) on the west and Gollakonda (796m) on the east are the highest peaks. Vakkileru River flowing southsouthwest is the main drainage system. Gandaleru is its main tributary that originates from the Nallamalai Ranges. The area is occupied by the lithounits of Nallamalai Group of Cuddapah Supergroup comprising Bairenkonda and Cumbum Formations of Mesoproterozoic and Kurnool Group of Neoproterozoic age. The Kurnool Group includes Banaganpalle and Nandyal Formations.Quartzite of Bairenkonda Formation and shale, quartzite and dolomite of Cumbum Formation are exposed in the western and the eastern parts of the Nallamalai Range respectively. In the western part of the Nallamalai Range, north of the Paleru River, hard, quartzite and medium grained grey and purple sandstone constitute the ridges. Thin-bedded purple shales are intercalated towards the base of the quartzite at about 1.6km northeast of Mahanandi. The quartzite has been faulted by an ENE-WSW trending fault to the north of Basavapuram. The Cumbum Formation is exposed mainly in the eastern parts. The shale of Cumbum Formation is fine grained and purple, buff or grey coloured. These are often finely banded in varying shades. Quartzite occurs interbedded with the shales at many places. Numerous quartz veins traverse the shale, some carrying calcite, chlorite, galena and barytes. One km southwest of Chelima an old trench is noticed in the shales. At Dongabhavi there is another long trench most likely dug for rock crystal (quartz). Chelima is also known for its diamondiferous kimberlite occurrence. Numerous detached outliers of orthoquartzite overlying the shale horizon of the Gandikota quartzite Formation have been correlated with the Banaganpalli quartzite in view of the 60 flat dips, unconformable relationship with the shales and proximity to Kurnool rocks. The Nandyal Formation consists of two units viz., 1) purple calcareous flaggy shale and 2) purple shaly limestone with irregular laminae of shales. The maximum thickness of this horizon at Gospadu exceeds 27m. Towards the base of the shaly limestone, a bed of very hard, fine-grained limestone is commonly observed. It is greenish grey in the lower portion and purple in the upper part while the intermediate layer is of mixed colours. The shale bed passes upwards into shaly limestone as exposed in the central part of the Kunderu Plain bounded on either side by the purple flaggy limestone. Shear zones of regional extent trend in NE direction and show effects of fracturing, brecciation, silicification, pulverisation and epidotised flaser rock and phyllonites with mylonite bands. These shears also control the drainage pattern and the development of springs. Bairenkonda quartzite at Chinna Ahobilam is traversed by barytes veins. Lead, zinc and barytes mineralisation is observed around Chelima in the Cumbum Shales. The conglomerate of Banganapalle Formation is known to be diamondiferous and there are reports of past mining activity for diamond northeast of Mahadevapuram. Lamproites of Chelima are reported to be diamondiferous. The rock types exposed in the toposheet 57I/12 belong to Nallamalai Group (Mesoproterozoic) comprising Bairenkonda Quartzite and Cumbum Formation and Neoproterozoic Kurnool Group which includes Owk Formation, Koilkuntla Formation and Nandyal Formation. Stream sediment samples from toposheet no. 57I/12 will be collected between Lat. 15° 04' 21” & 15° 08' 42" and Long. 78° 38' 56" & 78° 43' 24" from composite cell no. 9, 10, 11, 12, 23, 24, 25, 26, 37, 38, 39, 40, 51, 52, 53 and 54.

  • Shiva's Waterfront Temples
    Shiva’s Waterfront Temples: Reimagining the Sacred Architecture of India’s Deccan Region Subhashini Kaligotla Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2015 Subhashini Kaligotla All rights reserved ABSTRACT Shiva’s Waterfront Temples: Reimagining the Sacred Architecture of India’s Deccan Region Subhashini Kaligotla This dissertation examines Deccan India’s earliest surviving stone constructions, which were founded during the 6th through the 8th centuries and are known for their unparalleled formal eclecticism. Whereas past scholarship explains their heterogeneous formal character as an organic outcome of the Deccan’s “borderland” location between north India and south India, my study challenges the very conceptualization of the Deccan temple within a binary taxonomy that recognizes only northern and southern temple types. Rejecting the passivity implied by the borderland metaphor, I emphasize the role of human agents—particularly architects and makers—in establishing a dialectic between the north Indian and the south Indian architectural systems in the Deccan’s built worlds and built spaces. Secondly, by adopting the Deccan temple cluster as an analytical category in its own right, the present work contributes to the still developing field of landscape studies of the premodern Deccan. I read traditional art-historical evidence—the built environment, sculpture, and stone and copperplate inscriptions—alongside discursive treatments of landscape cultures and phenomenological and experiential perspectives. As a result, I am able to present hitherto unexamined aspects of the cluster’s spatial arrangement: the interrelationships between structures and the ways those relationships influence ritual and processional movements, as well as the symbolic, locative, and organizing role played by water bodies.

  • Potential for Unconformity-Related Uranium Deposits in the Northern
    International Symposium on Uranium Raw Material for the Nuclear Fuel Cycle: Exploration, Mining, Production, Supply and Demand, Economics and Environmental Issues (URAM-2018) Contribution ID: 71 Type: ORAL POTENTIAL FOR UNCONFORMITY-RELATED URANIUM DEPOSITS IN THE NORTHERN PART OF THE CUDDAPAH BASIN, TELANGANA AND ANDHRA PRADESH, INDIA Tuesday, 26 June 2018 09:40 (20 minutes) INTRODUCTION The intra-cratonic, Mesoproterozoic Cuddapah Basin in the Dharwar Craton of India hosts several typesof uranium deposits in its various stratigraphic levels. Signatures of uranium mineralisation are recorded in the Gulcheru and Vempalle Formations in the lower part and along the unconformity between the basement granite and the overlying sediments of Srisailam / Banganapalle Formation in the upper part of the Cudda- pah sequence. The Srisailam and Palnad sub-basins lying in the northern part of the Cuddapah basinhosts Proterozoic unconformity related uranium mineralisation. Uranium mineralisation in these sub-basins occurs close to the unconformity between the basement complex containing basement granitoid, basic dykes of Pale- oproterozoic age and greenstone belt of Achaean age and arenaceous, argillaceous and calcareous sediments of Meso-Neoproterozoic age. Concerted sub-surface exploration over two decades has established three small to medium tonnage uranium deposits at Lambapur (~1,200tU), Peddagattu (~6,400tU) and Chitrial (~8,000tU) along the unconformity between the basement Mahabubnagar granite and overlying Srisailam Formation in Srisailam sub-basin; and one small tonnage deposit at Koppunuru (~2,300tU) close to the unconformity contact between basement granite and Banganapalle Formation of the Kurnool Group in the Palnad sub-basin. In all these deposits, uranium mineralisation is concealed and lies below the cover rocks at a depth of <5-150m.

Venkata Raju E mail : [email protected] Issued 02 November 2008 ABSTRACT The present report deals with the phytotherapeutic properties of certain potential anti-poisonous crude drugs used by the Adivasis, inhabited in the forests of Rayalaseema region of Andhra Pradesh. The critical taxonomic analysis yielded twenty species belonging to 17 families of angiosperms used for poisonous bites. The majority of drug formulations (14 spp.) were administered as antidotes for snake bites. Key words: Crude drugs, Poisonous bites, Rayalaseema region. INTRODUCTION Since time immorial plants play an important role in the spiritual as well as physical well being of the mankind. The indigenous people depend either directly or indirectly on the forests for their daily needs and preserve the knowledge about the traditional and cultural uses of plants as family secrets. It is necessary that unwritten folklore uses of plant products must be documented and preserved. In this connection an attempt was made to collect folklore information about poisonous bites from Rayalaseema forests. The critical review of literature (Jain, 1991; Kirtikar and Basu, 1935; Rama Rao and Henry, 1996) revealed that very few and sporadic attempts were made on crude drugs used for poisonous bites (Reddy et al., 1996 and Imam et al., 2003).
