GSI BRIEFING BOOK OF EASTERN REGION

1. INTRODUCTION

The Eastern Region of Geological Survey of India was established in 1961 with the regional headquarters at Kolkata and Circle Offices of Bihar, Orissa and West Bengal –Andaman and Sikkim Unit with headquarters at Patna, Bhubaneswar, Kolkata and Gangtok respectively. The circle offices were mainly involved with the systematic geological mapping and assessment of mineral resources. At the Regional Headquarters there were specialized divisions like Engineering Geology, Map compilation, Geophysical investigation, Chemical Laboratory and Drilling Division. The activities were further expanded to Photogeology & Remote Sensing, Regional Integrated Survey, and Quaternary & Environmental Geology, Earthquake Geology and the Geodata Divisions. Subsequently the Circle Offices were redesignated as “Operation”. In the year 2000, two major changes took place as regards the operational coverage of Eastern Region. Operation Bihar & Jharkhand was split into Operation Bihar and Operation Jharkhand with headquarters at Patna and Ranchi. The erstwhile AMSE Eastern zone headquartered at Ranchi was amalgamated with operation Jharkhand. At the same time the Sikkim Unit (of Operation West Bengal) was delinked from Eastern Region and amalgamated with NER, Shillong. Thus Eastern Region now covers geographical area of 0.426 million sq km in the states of WB (88752sq km)-Andaman (8249 sq km), Bihar (94162 sq km), Jharkhand (79714 sq km) and Orissa (1,55,707 sq km).

Geologically the main land part of Eastern Region represents: - Archaean -Proterozoic Rocks, hosting a majority of mineral occurrences in Orissa, Jharkhand and West Bengal. - Proterozoic Rocks, including limestone in the Vindhyans in Bihar and Jharkhand. - Gondwana Supergroup, a storehouse for coal, refractory clays and coal bed methane. - Late Cretaceous - Early Palaeocene Rajmahal traps equivalent of the Deccan Continental Flood Basalts. - The sub-Himalayan foothills covering Darjeeling and Duars with marine Gondwana, Siwaliks and the Pleistocene fan deposit - The Quaternary Indo-Gangetic Alluvium covering major parts of Bihar and West Bengal.

The Andaman & Nicobar Islands on the other hand represents: - Dominantly post-Cretaceous Ophiolite–flysch–wacke sequence developed as accretionary prism and wedge resultant to the ongoing subduction process along the Indo-Eurasian Plate margin in the .

PHYSIOGRAPHY AND TECTONIC FRAMEWORK Physiographically the Chhotanagpur Plateau region of central and south Bihar–Jharkhand can be divided on the basis of physiographic consideration into Ranchi and Hazaribagh plateaus. The former is the main plateau with general elevation of about 600m above m.s.l. in Ranchi district, has a flat to gently undulating topography with occasional ridges and gradually slopes down towards south- east into the hilly and undulating topography with occasional ridges of Singhbhum. To the north of Tatanagar, the Dalma hills rising about 500m to 600m from the plains with a prominent east-west trending hill ranges are flanked on either side by easily denuded phyllites and mica schists forming the plains. The vast Singhbhum Granite cratonic terrain is represented by a peneplane, which is highly intercepted by residual mounds and rock knolls. The drainage system of the area is mainly controlled by the Damodar, Ajoy, Subarnerakha, north and south Koel river forming different basins. The eastern fringe of Indian peninsula to a large extent constitutes part of the Eastern Ghats hill ranges which flanks the main cratonic part to the west. Geomorphology of the area is broadly

1

controlled by various regional geological and tectonic features. The prominent central highland is marked by linear hill ranges lending NE-SW in the southern part and WNW-ESE or E-W in the central part. It is separated from the low-level coastal plain in the east by a series of faults. The central highland is again separated by upthrusts parallel to its hill ranges from the western part of the state which is the continuation of the dissected central Indian plateau-land. The central highland is further cut-across by the NW-SE trending Mahanadi graben in Orissa along which the river flows from west to east, The Mahanadi and sub-parallel Brahmani lineaments form a tectonic zone which divides the central highland into a southern segment constituted of granulite facies litho assemblages continuing southwards into Andhra Pradesh, and a northern segment exposing ancient (Archaean) granite-greenstone assemblages continuing northwards into Jharkhand. The Eastern Ghats is separated by Northern Orissa Boundary Fault (NOBF) from the northern part of the central highland.The shield area of Jharkhand is predominantly occupied by Archaean Singhbhum granite batholith , flanked by Proterozoic supracrustals of Singhbhum Group, Dalma volcanic belt and vast peneplain area of Chhotanagpur granite gneissic complex in the north. The northern segment of the central highland and the western plateau-land bordering Eastern Ghats are similar in geological set up and are known respectively as the North Orissa Craton and Bastar Craton. While in the middle of it lies the Gondwana formations in Mahanadi graben bounded by faults, which have rich coal resources, some sectors of the coastal plains are mostly covered by Tertiary, and Quaternary sediments and low-level laterite. The Extra-peninsular region of West Bengal comprises the mountainous tract of the Eastern Himalayas, covering Darjeeling and part of Jalpaiguri districts. The three longitudinal morphotectonic sub-divisions of the Himalayas, i.e. the Lesser and Central or Higher Himalayas are traceable in the Darjeeling sector. The Main Boundary Fault (MBF/MBT) separates the syn-orogenic Siwalik Group of the Sub-Himalayas in the foreland from the stacked pile of thrust sheets constituting the Lesser Himalayan Zone. The Main Central Thrust (MCT) separates the Lesser Himalayas from the Higher Himalayas in the north constituted of mainly gneissic rocks associated with high-grade metamorphites. The major portion of Bihar and West Bengal is occupied by the Gangetic alluvial plain. The Andaman and Nicobar Islands arc forms the northern extension of outer Indonesian Island arc system and represent part of a major accretionary complex that extends from Indonesian Island arcs in the south to Burma in the north. The Andaman arc-trench system has been described as the result of the active subduction of the Indian oceanic lithosphere below the Eurasian plate along the Andaman-Java trench, from Cretaceous to the present day The ophiolite occurrences in are interpreted as thrust slices of oceanic crust scraped off the subducting slab at the toe of the accretionary complex.

GEOLOGICAL CONTEXT WEST BENGAL The state of West Bengal, covering an area of 88752 sq. km is bounded by Latitude 21o 30’ to 27o 30’ N and Longitude 85o 30’ to 89o 45’ E. It encompasses diverse rock types ranging from Archaean to Recent alluvial sediments. The hard rocks occupy about 25% and the alluvial tract covers about 75% of the total area. The Extra Peninsular region shows three longitudinal morphotectonic subdivisions. The Main Boundary Fault separates syn-orogenic Siwalik Group (Tertiary) comprising coarse, hard, salt -pepper sandstone, silt stone, shale and conglomerate of the Sub Himalayas in the foreland from the Lesser Himalaya which constitutes stacked pile of thrust sheets constituting dominantly dolostones, cherts, slates, phyllite, quartzites, high grade schists and gneisses. The Main Central Thrust separates Lasser Himalayas from the Higher Himalayas in the north which constitutes mainly high grade gneissic rocks. Gondwana Supergroup of rocks with anthracite coal seams is found near Jalpaiguri and Darjeeling districts. The Quaternary deposits of the extra Peninsular region occurs just south of Siwalik Group as alluvial fans and fluvial depositional terraces in the upper reaches and as fluvial terraces of flood plain facies in the lower reaches.

Within the peninsular mass in the south-western part of the state, the Chhotanagpur Gnessic Complex (CGC) forms an integral and important segment of Precambrian Shield of Eastern India. The Proterozoic rocks are exposed in southern part of Purulia district and extend over the western parts of Bankua, Bardhaman, Birbhum and Midnapur districts. The rock types include paragneisses and schists, gabbros, norites and anorthosites, granites and granitoids metavolcanics and recent find of carbonatite. The WNW-ESE trending Tamar-Porapahar Shear Zone (TPSZ) between Chhotanagpur Gneissic Complex (CGC) and Singhbhum Group of rocks and E-W trending North Purulia Shear Zone within CGC are sites of base metal and rare earth mineralisation. Gondwana Supergroup of rocks rest unconformably over the Proterozoics and are characterised by extensive presence of coal seams.

The Tertiary rocks occur as patchy occurrences of ferruginous sandstone, red shale, grits and gravels in parts of Midnapur, Bankura and Bardhaman districts. Quaternary deposits are represented by present day flood plain deposits, older flood plain deposits and older alluviums over a mantle of lower Quaternary age.

Mineral Resources: Various metallic and nonmetallic minerals are found in the Peninsular and Extra Peninsular parts of the state.

Apatite- Vien type apatite-magnetite mineralisation occurs in Purulia district in Beldih, Mednitanr, Chirugora, Purtaha, Kanti and Dandodih-Gamardih.

Basemetal occurrences are located in Gorubathan (Darjeeling dist, Pb-Zn)and Tamakun (Purulia dist, Cu).

China clay- Extensive deposits of china clay have been located with the Gondwanas in the western districts of the sate.

Coal- Coal is the most important economic mineral of West Bengal and contributes about 13% of the total coal production in the country. The important coalfields are and those located in Birbhum, Bankura and Purulia districts. Small coal deposits are located in Darjeeling district.

Dolomite- Extensive deposits of dolomite occur in Precambrian Bauxa Group of rocks in Jainti- Bauxa Duar area of Jalpaiguri district.with CaO varying from 10.9% to 37.5% and MgO from 6.43% to 22.24%.

Fire clay- The fire clay deposits are generally associated with coal seams over a wide area in Raniganj coal field and partly in Birbhum coal field.

Kyanite- Discontinuous bodies of Kyanite quartz rocks are located in Purulia district.

Silica sand- Huge reserves of sands are available from the beds of many rivers in the western and northern part of the state and most river sands are impure in nature. Besides, moulding sand and glass sand also occur ii some parts of the state.

Wolframite - Wolframite occurs in Chhendapathar and Porapahar areas of Bankura district and also in Mansang area of Darjeeling district.

ANDAMAN & NICOBAR ISLANDS This arcuate chain of Andaman & Nicobar group of Islands flanked on the west by the Bay of Bengal and on the east by the constitutes the southern most part of the Indian subcontinent covering an area of 8249 sq. km. Among 700+ islands, those which are large, reasonably suitable for habitation, sustainable for eco-friendly development and host of good natural resources are known as Andaman Islands. Associated with them is other small but important islands like Rutland, Neil, Havlock, Ritches Archipelago and Baratang. These Islands together with the Quaternary volcanic Islands at Barren and Narcondam retain a wealth of information about Recent and Cenozoic geological processes. Andaman and Nicobar group of Islands represents a part of an arcuate chain of islands running from Myanmar in the north to Indonesia in the south in Indo-Sumatra subduction zone. The island chain represent the subaerial part of the submarine fore arc ridge of the Indonesian Island Arc system. An active zone of subduction along the Andaman-Java trench lies to the west of the Andaman-Nicobar islands and continues southward into the Indonesia. Underthusting of the Indian oceanic plate below the Eurasian plate since Cretaceous to present day along this subduction zone has resulted in the formation of a wide accretionary prism and upbuilding of a high fore arc - outer arc ridge known as Andaman-Nicobar ridge. These islands geologically comprise continental metamorphic rocks of pre-ophiolitic age, described as Pre-ophiolitic rocks. These are located as large and xenolithic patches within the ophiolite. The oldest groups of rocks comprise a package of metamorphic rocks viz., quartzite, quartz sericite schist etc. The widely accepted lithostratigraphy for the Andaman Islands depict oceanic crust and associated pelagic sediments represented by Ophiolite suite of Cretaceous age (80-100 million years) as the oldest stratigraphic horizon. They comprise ultramafic rocks, gabbro, basalt, plagio-granite, diorite and limestone- chert. Thin and discontinuous occurrences of radiolarian chert, jasper, mudstone and shale that are interstratified with basalt are part of the ophiolite sequence that have been described as Oceanic Pelagic Sediments (OPS). The Eocene to Pliocene sedimentary sequence younger to OPS comprises conglomerate, sandstone, limestone, siltstone- shale. This sediment pile has been classified into three Groups- Mithakari, Andaman Flysch and Archipelago in ascending order. Clastic and volcaniclastic sediments of Mithakhari Group are laterally extensive and considerably thick siliciclastic turbidite succession, the Andaman Flysch overlying the Mithakhari Group and. The top most stratigraphic horizon of Mio-Pliocene age is an interbedded sequence of claystone-tuffs-sandstone-limestone referred to as Archipelago Group. The ophiolite suite of rocks also occurs as dismembered units of subhorizontal thrust slices lying over the Andaman Flysch.. Quaternary sediments are seen overlying the hard rocks at places. The Narcondam and the Barren are volcanic islands in the inner arc of the subduction zone. The outer arc-fore arc terrain constituting the Andaman-Nicobar Islands is characterized by a complex mosaic of different geological provinces each has its own records of origin and geological evolution. Rocks of the Andaman Islands are tectonically thrusted into a narrow north-south trending linear belt paralleling the north-south trend of the Andaman-Java subduction zone. The Ophiolites, their cover sediments and the Andaman Flysh together are folded into an open anticline (Ray, 1982). Sets of mesoscopic folds occur in all the sedimentary units associated with ophiolites.

MINERAL RESOURCES The Andaman Islands have long been investigated for minerals of economic importance, constructional material, and for occurrences of liquid fuel. Mineral investigation by the GSI led to the find of limestone, chromite, nickel, base metals, gold, PGE and coal in different islands. Except limestone, the other minerals so far assessed are found to be sub-economic. The limestone resources in Long Island have yielded a reserve of over four million tonnes of cement grade

BIHAR After bifurcation of the state in the year 2000, presently the State of Bihar covers an area of 94162 sq. km. bounded by latitudes 24º 15' N and 27º 31' N and longitudes 83º 20' E and 88º 18' E, Nearly two-thirds of the state of Bihar is covered by Indo-Gangetic alluvial sediments. They are flanked by the belt of Himalayan foothill sediments to the north and Vindhyan Plateau, coal bearing Gondwana basins, Chhotanagpur plateau and other highland cratonic elements of Pre- Cambrian formations to the south. Amongst the significant geological formations in the state are the Munger Group located close to the northern margin of the Chhotanagpur Gneissic terrain of Jharkhand and occurrung as several NE-ENE - SW-WSW trending ridges rising above the Gangetic Alluvium. The group comprises metasedimentary lithopackages of quartzite and phyllite. These are intruded at places by granite and basic rocks. The munger Group rocks have been folded and faulted inticately. Some of the Hot-springs of Rajgir area lie over some of such faults. Munger Group have been considered by some as time equivalent of a part of Vindhayans. Vindhan rocks in the state of Bihar are located to the easternmost continuity of the Son Valley vindhanyans. It covers about 3740 sqkm area.and is bounded in the north by the Mahakoshals and the Chhotanagpur gneissic complex in the south and by Gangetic Alluvium in the north and represent the Semri – Kaimur Groups,the lower part of the Super Group. Representatives of the Tertiary period in Bihar are few and scattered and are represented by the fossiliferous unit known as the Rajdanda Formation. Undifferentiated Siwalik Groupof rocks occur towards the NW margin bordering Nepal and comprise calc-arenite, calci-lutite, impure limestones, sub-gerywacke, variegated clay, boulder conglomerates and red clay. They have been correlated with Lower, Middle and Upper Siwaliks of western Himalya and with the Surma, Tipam and Dihings of Assam valley. Vertibrate fossil remains are reported from the Middle Siwaliks in Banktwa and Raghis, West Champaran district. The alluvial terrain of the state represents a conspicuous part of the geological history. Predominant feature is the Gangetic plain covered by the riverine alluvial deposits forming part of the great northern plains of India. Rising above the alluvial plain are some inselbergs of older rocks. Recent studies have brought into light presence of NE-SW trending faults oblique to the NW-SE trend of the Himalayas occurring to north and also to the peninsular shield elements and as such conceived that several ancient rifted basinal features co-exist with regions of uplift, within a broad framework of the nprthern extension of the shield elements. This terrain comprises a 6000m thick pile of sediments in the Himalayan front and a platform belt in the south with sediment thickness varying between 3000 to 6000m.

MINERAL RESOURCES After the bifurcation of the earlier state of Bihar into Bihar and Jharkhand, the new terrain falling within the geographical limits of Bihar is left with very little of mineral wealth. These include:

JHARKHAND The State of Jharkhand lying between latitudes 22º 00' N and 24º 15' N and longitudes 83º 20' E and 87º 55' E covers an area of 79714 sq. km. Jharkhand preserves the signature of Archaean to Recent time either in complete or in vestigial form that are manifested by Archaean Supracrustals of 3.4 m.y.,age Pre-Cambrian Granite-greenstone and granulite gneiss belt in the southern cratonic part.. The shield area of the state of Jharkhand displays a mosaic of several geological provinces viz., (a)The Archaean Cratonic massif of Singhbhum Granite including older metamorphics (b) Iron ore province of South Singhbhum (c) Proterozoic mobile belt of North Singhbhum and (d) Chhotanagpur granite gneissic massif with enclaves of high grade rocks. The Archaean-Proterozoic rocks of the shield area occurring to the south of Gangetic alluvium and forming the basement for the younger rocks consist of two major tectonic units: (i) The Singhbhum Province in the south and (ii) Chhotanagpur Province in the north. The boundary between the two provinces is defined by a basement dislocation zone now manifested by Tamar-Porapahar Shear Zone (TPSZ). The most spectacular structural element of the Singhbhum Craton is a 1- 10 km wide and 160 km (approximate ) long arcuate belt of shear zone (Singhbhum Shear Zone) separating the North Singhbhum Mobile Belt in the north from Iron Ore Super group and the Singhbhum Granite to the south acts as locale of copper mineralization. The Older Metamorphic Group (OMG) represents the oldest rocks in the Singhbhum Craton. It is a diverse group consisting of medium grade (amphibolite facies), pelitic schist, arenites, calc-silicate rocks, para-and ortho-amphibolites (Saha, 1994). It is best exposed (type area) in 200 sq. km. area to the west and southwest of Champua. The north-south, elongated Singhbhum Granite Complex (SBG) massif is a multi-component unit ranging in composition from tonalite through granodiorite to granite. It occupies an area of about 3000 sq km out of a total 8000 sq km for the entire cratonic block.The Singhbhum Granite batholith (sensu stricto) is considered to be made up of 12 magmatic bodies of biotite granodiorite-granite emplaced in three distinct phases. The Iron Ore province (Iron Ore Supergroup) comprises an assemblage of Archaean supracrustal consisting of mafic-ultramafic volcanics, volcano-clastics, chert, BIF, greywackes, meta-argillites and arenites (with polyphase deformation and greenschist facies of metamorphism) and are deposited in three major basins of Eastern India; viz. i) Potka-Gorumahisani-Badampahar basin along the eastern border of Singhbhum Granite (Part designated as Gorumahisani Group), ii) West Singhbhum-Kendujhar basin in the western flank of Singhbhum Granite massif (designated as Lower Bonai Group), iii) Palalahara-Daiteri basin along southern part, confined entirely to the State of Orissa. In the State of Jharkhand, the litho-assemblages of Lower Bonai Group occur only in parts of East and West Singhbhum districts. IOG/ Lower Bonai rocks occur along the eastern flank of the Singhbhum Granite with fork shaped curvilinear belts along Kunderkocha -Tiring-Rajnagar in the west and Kunderkocha-Digharsai- Potka-Ukampahar in the north. These are considered to be the classical Greenstone belt comparable with the other such belts of the world and the sequences are engulfed and intruded by Singhbhum Granite, This Granite- Greenstone sequence is considered to be a significant locale for gold mineralization. In west Singhbhum the Lower Bonai IOG rocks lying to the west of SBG is dominated by BIF along with volcanics in the southeastern part and low grade meta-sediments with minor volcanics in the northern part which forms a part of the ‘Horse Shoe’ shaped Iron Ore synclinorium with NNE-SSW axial trend. The ancient Singhbhum craton is surrounded on the east, north and northeast by predominantly pelitic supracrustals with a number of intrusive granitoids and the set-up is designated as Proterozoic Mobile Belt or North Singhbhum Mobile Belt. This belt extends along a roughly east-west trend and bounded by Singhbhum Shear Zone (SSZ) in the south and vast expanse of Chhotanagpur gneissic terrain in the north and with the east- west trending Tamar-Porapahar shear zone (TPSZ) in between. The prominent feature of this mobile belt is the arcuate Dalma volcanics,

11

The Proterozoic period also represented by the Vindhyan Supergroup of rocks exposed in the Western part, which draws attention for its bio-organic sedimentary structure and limestone deposits. The coal bearing horizons of Gondwana Supergroup represent the Phanerozoic period. In Peninsular India several belts of depocentres of largely continental sediments were developed during the period, a major part of which falls within Bihar-Jharkhand. The Gondwana rocks occur as isolated basins within the Chhotanagpur Granite Gneiss terrain. These rocks occupy a significant part of Jharkhand and also include thick measures of coal seam. The basins have been developed along two distinct tectonic trends: (i) the east-west trending Damodar and Koel valley basins and its subsidiary belt and (ii) the north-south trending Rajmahal- Purnea belt.The Gondwanas are overlain by Rajmahal Volcanics in the Eastern part. The Pleistocene-Holocene period represented by the cover sediments of the Indo-Gangetic alluvial deposits occupy a vast tract in the northern part.

MINERAL RESOURCES

APATITE: Apatite is found in East and West Singhbhum district as veins emplaced in the Singhbhum Shear Zone in a 60 km. long belt in the eastern part of shear zone. Apatite mineralisation also occurs as an associated mineral in mica pegmatites of Bihar Mica Belt, in parts of Gaya, Hazaribagh and Munger districts.

BAUXITE: Extensive deposits of bauxite are found in the western parts of Chhotanagpur Plateau falling in Lohardaga, Gumla and adjoining Palamau district. The reserves of high grade bauxite, containing above 50% Al2O3 were tentatively estimated to be about 9 mt in the erstwhile Ranchi district and 1.7 mt in Palamau district. The exploration at Amtipani area established an estimated reserve of 4.95 mt analyzing 48.47% Al2O3 and 5.59% SiO2.

COAL: Jharkhand, the leading state in the Indian subcontinent in respect of its coal deposits, bears the testimony of classical development of the Permian coal measures. Out of different Gondwana basins of Peninsular India, Jharkhand state occupy the most important E-W trending Damodar-Koel valley basin covering coalfields like Raniganj, Jharia, Bokaro, Ramgarh, Karanpura, Auranga and Hutar from east to west.

COPPER: The Singhbhum Copper Belt, Jharkhand, stretched over a length of 128 km between Duarpuram (22º46´: 85°34´) in the west and Baharagora (2216’:8643’) in the southeast has been a major sorce of copper ores in India. This length of potential mineralized zone lies along a shear zone and is divided into three i.e., eastern (Baharagora-Badia), central (Badia-Kharkai River) and western (Tamadungri-Duarpuram) sectors. Copper occurrences are also recorded from Tulsitanr in Deoghar district and Baraganda in Giridih district.

DOLOMITE:Dolomite occurrences are restricted mainly to the rocks of Singhbhum Group, Chhotanagpur Granite Gneiss Complex (CGGC) and rocks of Vindhyan Supergroup. Within CGGC dolomite is restricted mainly in Palamau district. Dolomite in Vindhyan from Rohtas district occurs near Banjari. GOLD: Gold is known to occur in several areas of Jharkhand. Auriferous quartz reefs are commonly found in the low-grade metasediments and metavolcanic rocks of ultramafic to acidic composition belonging to Iron Ore Group and Singhbhum Group and volcanics of Dhanjori-Dalma affinities. Among the important occurrences are Kunderkocha deposit, E Singhbhum district, Lawa-Maysara deposits and quartz-pebble-conglomerate located at the base of Dhanjori basin. Other notable occurrences include Rungikocha - Pahardia, Ankua, Sausal, Bhitardari, Parasi and Digarsai of Ranchi and W. Singhbhum district. IRON ORE: Jharkhand is one of the most important states with respect to high grade iron ore deposits. Iron ores occur in a series of ridges with NNE-SSW trend, extending from the SW part of Singhbhum district in Jharkhand to adjoining Keonjhar and Sundergarh districts in Orissa, capping the hills and extending down to varying depths. Workable deposits of iron-ore in Jharkhand are located around Noamundi, Notuburu, Jamda, Gua, Meghatuburu, Kiriburu, Chiria, Ghatkuri and in other areas in Singhbhum district. The host rock is BIF and main ore mineral is hematite. LEAD AND ZINC: In Singhbhum district galena has been found associated with the auriferous quartz veins of Pahardia and Sausal area. In Hesatu-Belbathan polymetallic mineralization within Chhotanagpur Granite Gneiss Complex, numerous small occurrences have been recorded. This belt runs in ENE-WSW direction from Hesatu in the Hazaribagh district to Belbathan in Santhal Pargana (presentlyGodda) district for a distance of about 250 km with a maximum width of about 50 km.

LIMESTONE:Limestone deposits in Jharknand are mainly associated with two different groups of rocks, viz., Vindhyan rocks in Rohtas and Palamau districts, and Chhotanagpur Gneissic Complex in Hazaribagh, Ranchi, Munger and Palamau districts. Besides, some fine-grained, non-crystalline limestone are also found within the rocks of Kolhan Group in Singhbhum district. MANGANESE ORE:Manganese ores are mined in Singhbhum district in between Noamundi and Gua and from south of Chaibasa. The ore minerals are mostly psilomelane, braunite, cryptomelane and pyrolusite. Deposits have also been recorded from Lada Buru and Lanji. MICA: The Bihar Mica Belt containing perhaps the best deposits of good quality ruby mica in the world, stretch along ENE-WSW direction for a distance of about 160 km between Gurpa in Gaya district in the west and southern part of Bhagalpur district in the east. Most part of the belt is located within Hazaribagh and Giridih districts of Jharkhand. The belt varies from 20 to 40 km in width and about two-thirds area of the belt is occupied by metasedimentaries of Proterozoic age, in which mica bearing pegmatites are emplaced. URANIUM ORE: First reported in 1921 by GSI, Jaduguda in Singhbhum district in Jharkhand has so far remained the only producing uranium mine in India. At Jagduguda, uranium occurs associated with hard compact and somewhat mylonitised chlorite-sericite schist and granular metasedimentaries.

ORISSA The state of Orissa covering about 1, 55,707square km area, lies along the east coast of India ( Lat.17o48’ – 22o34’ and Long. 81o24’ – 87o29’) with a sprawling 480 km of coastline. Orissa is divisible in to four major physiographic regions: the Northern Plateau, the Central River Basin, the Eastern Ghats hill ranges and the Coastal Plains. GEOLOGY: The state of Orissa comprises dominantly of Pre-cambrians (Mesoarchean to Neoproterozoic, 72.5%) while the Phanerozoic (8%, represented by the Late Palaeozoic – Mid Mesozoic coal bearing Gondwana Supergroup); minor Tertiary patches and Quaternary formations (19.5%) make up the rest. The Precambrian terrain represents the northeastern part of the Indian Precambrian Shield and exposes parts of two major cratonic domains viz. the Eastern Indian Craton in the north and Bastar Craton in the west as well as bordering mobile belts [parts of the Eastern Ghat Mobile Belt and the (Singhbhum -) Gangpur segment of the Satpura Mobile Belt]. Eastern Indian Craton (EIC) represents an Archean – Palaeoproterozoic granite-greenstone terrain bounded by two crustal-scale shear/thrust zones, viz., the Singhbhum (Copper Belt) shear/thrust zone in the north and the Gohira – Sukinda shear/thrust zone in the south. These two shear/thrust zones isolate the EIC from the Singhbhum – Gangpur segment of the Satpura Mobile Belt occurring in the north and northeast and the EGMB occurring in the south. Major lithological components of the EIC comprise Supracrustal sequences, granitoids, mafic-ultramafic and gabbro-anorthosite complexes and mafic dyke swarms. An older limit of ca. 3.5 Ga has been envisaged as the age of sedimentation of Supracrustals in EIC. Bastar Craton, exposed in the western parts of the state comprises of: Archean Supracrustals of the Bengpal and Bailadila Groups, granitic gneisses and granitoids ranging in age from Neo-archaean to Palaeoproterozoic, a wide variety of post-tectonic silicic intrusives with alkaline affinity, mafic/ultramafic rocks and several Meso- Neoproterozoic sequences of platformal sediments (Chhatisgarh Supergroup). Isotopic ages of granitoids in this craton range from 2.11 to 2.67 Ga. Gangpur-Singhbhum Group comprising medium-grade Proterozoic rocks form a curvilinear mobile zone skirting the Archean EIC stretching from Mayurbhanj in northeast to the Gangpur region in the northwest through Singhbhum in the state of Jharkhand. Eastern Ghat Mobile Belt (EGMB), extending for over 1000 km from Orissa to southeastern parts of Andhra Pradesh along the eastern coast of the Indian Peninsula, represents one of the most highly deformed and metamorphosed crustal segment of the Indian Shield. The EGMB comprises Khondalite Group, Charnockite, Mafic granulites, Metaultramafic, Migmatitic granitic gneisses/leptynites/granitoids, Plutonic alkaline complexes and massif-type anorthosite complexes. In the Orissa sector, from east to west, the EGMB is divided into Eastern Khondalite Zone, Central Migmatite Zone, Western Khondalite Zone, Western Charnockite Zone and the Westernmost Transition Zone. The NW-SE trending Mahanadi graben sub-parallels the Brahmani lineament and form a tectonic zone which divides the central highland into a southern segment comprising granulite facies lithoassemblages continuing southwards into Andhra Pradesh, and a northern segment exposing ancient (Archaean) granite-greenstone assemblages continuing northwards into Jharkhand. However, the Mahanadi and Godavari rifts divide the EGMB into three segments across its length, viz. (i) northern segment (ii) central segment and (iii) southern segment. The southern segment of the EGMB is separated by North Orissa Boundary Fault (NOBF) from the central highland. The northern segment of the central highland and the western plateau-land bordering Eastern Ghats are similar in geological set up that are known respectively as the North Orissa Craton (part of EIC) and Bastar Craton. While in the middle of it lies the Gondwana formations in Mahanadi graben bounded by faults, which have rich coal resources. Some sectors of the coastal plains are covered by sediments of Tertiary and Quaternary periods besides some low-level laterite. Gondwana Supergroup comprising Permo-Carboniferous to Lr. Cretaceous coal bearing rocks are spread over 12,415 sq.km area along the NW – SE trending linear belt in the Mahanadi valley. Three major basins (Talchir, Ib River and Athgarh) and a number of small patches (outliers) of Gondwana rocks (Katiringia, Gaisilat, Athmalik, Chhatarpur) in the districts of Angul, Dhenkanal, Sambalpur, Sundargarh, Phulbani, Baudh, Bolangir, Cuttack, Khurda, Puri and Ganjam, also expose Gondwana rocks. While the Lower Gondwana rocks are a vast repository of coal, the Upper Gondwana sandstones have been used as building material for the Lord Jagannath temple at Puri, Lingaraj temple at Bhubaneswar and partly the Sun Temple at Konark. The Jain caves at Khandagiri and Udaigiri, located near Bhubaneswar, have also been carved out of these sandstones.

15

Tertiary formations (Baripada Beds) occur around Baripada town (21o56’ N: 86o44’ E), over a radius of 8 km in the bed of the Budhabalang river. The Baripada sediments are horizontal to sub-horizontal in disposition and comprise alternate sets of stratified clay and sand with semi-consolidated clay, ferruginous grit, soil and occasional marly clay or limestone interbands. Quaternary formations in the state include volcanic ash beds confined along river valleys, deltas and coastal plain and attain maximum width of about 100 km in the Mahanadi delta.

MINERAL RESOURCES: Basemetals - Associated with the Precambrian schists, copper and lead ores mainly occur at Kesarpur , Mayurbhanj district; Adash, Sambalpur district and Sargipalli (T.S no. 65N/16) in Sundargarh district respectively. Bauxite - Orissa accounts for 59% of the total bauxite production of the country. The bauxite deposits of Orissa are broadly classified into five different categories based on nature of the bed-rock as (i) Relatively large capping over khondalites, Eastern Ghats Super Group in Koraput, Kalahandi, Phulbani, Bolangir and Sambalpur districts, (ii) Cappings developed over charnockite, diorite /dioritic gneisses, Eastern Ghats Super Group in Koraput and Kalahandi districts, (iii) Minor cappings over Chattishgarh shale in Khariar highlands in Nuapada district, (iv) Minor cappings over mafic volcanics and shale of Koira Group in Kendujhar – Sundargarh district and (v) Capping over Simlipal volcanic rocks in Mayurbhanj district. Beach Sand Minerals - The coastal tracts of Ganjam and Puri districts contain workable concentration of heavy minerals in the beach and dune sands, which include ilmenite, garnet, rutile, sillimanite, zircon and monazite. Cassiterite (Tin Ore) - Cassiterite occurs both as primary and secondary mineralization in Malkangiri district associated with pegmatites emplaced within the Precambrian Bengpal Group of rocks and also as the colluvial maters formed out of such pegmatites. Coal - Orissa has 24% of the total coal resource of the country. The major coal bearing formations in both Talchir and Ib-river coal fields are Karharbari and Barakar. Talchir Coal field in Angul district is characterized by east-west running strike faults and in the process, repetition of coal seams has resulted in increased quarriable potentiality. Chromite - Orissa holds the first place in reserves position and production of chromite in the country, contributing to over 97% of the all India output. The deposit yielding metallurgical, refractory and chemical grade of ores occur within the chromiferous ultramafic rocks emplaced into the Archaean Badampahar Group of rocks around Sukinda and Nuasahii covering parts of Jajpur, Kendujhar and Dhenkanal districts. Gemstones - The Eastern Ghats Granulite belt hosts most of the gemstone occurrences of the state. Among the several gemstone belts of Orissa, the 25km long Jilingdhar- Hinjilibahal belt, Kalahandi district is the most important contributing the best quality ruby. Besides deep blue dichroic iolite in cordierite gneiss, hessonite and zircon in pegmatites traversing calc-granulites, chrysoberyl (Cat’s eye) in pegmatites traversing pyroxene granulite are the other gemstones of this belt. Occurrences of emerald, topaz, heliodor and aquamarine associated with low dipping unzoned pegmatites emplaced in granite gneiss are reported from Bolangir district. Greenish blue to sea blue aquamarine is reported from gemstone tracts of Sonepur district. Rare occurrence of alexandrite in biotite schist developed along the contact of granite pegmatite and peridotite is reported from Sambalpur district. Gold - Gold occurrences of Orissa are confined to mainly placers, though there is evidence of old mining activity in the northern parts of Orissa, especially in Kendujhar disrtict adjoining Jharkhand. Occurrence of alluvial gold has been recorded in almost all the districts of Orissa and panning of the stream sediments in the major rivers has yielded gold. Graphite - Orissa continues to be the leading producer of graphite accounting for 67% of the country’s total production. The graphite occurrences are distributed in six belts, viz, Sargipalli, Titlagarh, Tumudibandh, Nishikal, Muniguda and Dhandatapa belts. Almost the entire production of high grade graphite is contributed by Sargipalli mine in Baragarh district. Iron Ore - Orissa has vast reserves of high grade iron-ores. Important iron ore bearing areas are Thakuranii Pahar, Sidhamat Parbat, Durga Parbat, Joda east and west, Banspani Pahar, Dal Pahar, north and west of Kurband, Jhiling Pahar, Longlota Pahar, Guali, Kiriburu, Kalta and Gandhamardan. Kendujhar district, In Sundargarh district, the notable iron ore deposits are in Bonai range viz. Khandadhar, Malangtoli, Dandrahar Pahar, Taldih, Kalta, Basada, Baliapahar, Badamgarh Pahar, Hitikuda, Rakmo, Daringburu and Barsuan. In Mayurbhanj district, iron ore deposits are located in Badampahar, Sulaipat and Gorumahisani areas while

16

Daitari hill is the only iron ore deposit in Jajpur district. The host rock is banded hematite jasper/ quartzite (BHJ/ BHQ) of Precambrian age. Limestone and dolomite - Orissa is endowed with vast resources of limestone confined to three distinct geological settings viz; Gangpur Group, Chattishgarh Supergroup and Eastern Ghats Supergroup of rocks. One of the most important Precambrian limestone and dolomite deposits of Orissa occurs associated with Gangpur Group of rocks in Sundergarh district. The lime content in the rock varies from 30 to 52% while the insoluble and silica show variation from 30 to 35 % and magnesia up to 15%. Alumina and iron oxide contents never exceed 6 % and 8% respectively. Manganese - Orissa accounts for one third of the country’s annual production of manganese and possesses the second largest recoverable manganese resources/ reserve in the country. The manganese deposits of Orissa, restricted to the Precambrian rocks, occur chiefly in four distinct geographic belts: (i) the Bonai – Kendujhar Belt in Sundargarh and Kendujhar districts, associated with chert-shale sequence and laterites, (ii) Kuttinga – Nishikal – Ambadola – Patna belt in Koraput, Kalahandi and Bolangir districts, associated with Khondalites (iii) Ghoriajhor belt (Gangpur Group) in Sundargarh district associated with Gonditic rocks and (iv) Bamra subdivision of Sambalpur district associated with laterite over metasediments. Nickel - Nickel ores associated with limonitised and silicified ultrabasic rocks occur in Sukinda area, Jajpur district and within the weathered zone of ultramafic differentiates of the Amjori sill emplaced in the Simlipal Group of rocks in Simlipal area, Mayurbhanj district. Platinum – PGE mineralisation has been reported from the ultramafic complexes of Sukinda and Nuasahi areas located at the trijunction of Kendujhar, Jaipur and Dhenkanal districts. Layered, differentiated ultramafic to mafic plutons emplaced in stable cratonic blocks of Late Archaean to early Proterozoic age are most potential for hosting orthomagmatic PGE deposits. Vanadiferous Magnetite - Deposits of vanadiferous magnetite occurring in association with gabbro- anorthosite suite of rocks in north Orissa are distributed in five belts viz. (I) Bisoi-Rairangpur, (ii) Bisoi-Jasipur, (iii) Baripada-Udala in Mayurbhanj district and (iv) Nausahi-Baula and (v) Rangmatia-Betai in Kendujhar and Balasore districts.

Earthquake Geology 1. Study of crustal deformation and stress buildup along MFT,MCT, Darjeeling- Sikkim Himalaya.  Traverse along the east bank of Neora river (TS 78 B/8) west of Matiali reveals presence of the MBT as a N dipping thrust between under-thrusted Siwalik sand stone and overlying highly crushed and crumpled Daling phyllite, both dipping due north.  MBT in this section is draped by a moderately thick pile of Quaternary fan deposit named Matiali Fm.  On the west bank of Chail river in Gorubathan area, near horizontal sand – pebble Quaternary sequence is seen tectonically underlying north dipping Siwalik sandstones. .  This thrust is identified as ground trace of the Main Frontal Thrust in WB foothills.

2. Geodetic survey using DGPS in Andaman group of Island to compute ground deformation parameters..  DGPS data collection was taken-up during March 2010 after a gap of 15 months since September 2008. Ground observations do not indicate major geomorphic changes in the main Andaman  The RK Puram beach section, north of Hut Bay, show presence of terraced beach dunes indicating lowering of the high water level indicating again uplifting of the coastline

Geoenvironmental Studies

3. Study of incidence of fluoride in surface and ground water in parts of Gaya and Nawada districts. BIHAR.  Fluoride analytical results of 24 nos. GW samples available.  Fluoride values range from 0.2 ppm to 2.8 ppm.  Out of 24 samples, 09 samples analysed  1.5 ppm F.  Analytical results of samples collected during July are awaited.

4. Study of high fluoride incidence in ground water in Bamangola, Gajol and Ratua II blocks, Malda district and Tapan block of South Dinajpur district. WEST BENGAL  The highest value of 4.53mg/l F is found in a tube well at Illahabad located on the bank of Mahananda river.  Most of the high values are from depth less than 40m and the two highest (4.53 & 4.19mg/l) are from 33 m depth.  There is a control of depth as most of the high fluoride values are reported up to 40metre depth.  The other controlling factor is the geological set-up of the area as almost all the high fluoride values are localised within younger sediments.

5. Study of coastal processes in Jagatsinghpur and Kendrapara districts, Orissa  PGRS studies revealed a landward migration of the shoreline by about 200m-350m from the 1930 position in between Devi River mouth in south to Mahanadi River mouth in north, indicating coastal erosion.  The beach comprises very fine-grained quartz sand and minor heavies.  Berm, beach-face and beach cusps are not well developed. Features like rill marks and swash marks are identified at places.  Beach parallel newer dunes are well developed and stabilized by vegetation.  Wave parameter study reveals that the wave height varies from 1.32m to 1.75 m and average wave period varies from 10.5 second to 13.6 seconds.  It is observed that the average velocity of the long shore current increases from 1.35m/s to 4.25m/s in comparison with pre-monsoon regime (March 2009).  The energy flux of the waves ranges from 58.03 Joule-metre to 146.36 Joule-metre.

6. Electrical imaging of deep crustal structure by magneto-telluric (MT) survey in Sikkim- Darjeeling Himalayas WEST BENGAL.  Fluctuating basement is observed in Sikkim-Darjeeling Himalaya.  The basement depth for ready reference are given for the stations Chandmani (Siliguri), Chamakdangi and Kalijhora1 as 13445.35, 1851.38 and 8281.96 m respectively for TE mode 1D inversion.

7. Quaternary laterites in the western districts of West Bengal – their geomorphology, stratigraphy, genesis and implications for climatic change  Only Type I / insitu laterite can be identified in the field based on their morphology, composition and texture. These insitu laterites had been developed over Gondwana, Tertiary and Quaternary sediments.  The lateritized sediment is characterized by various primary sedimentary structures like cross bedding, graded bedding, scours marks, channel fill etc.  These in situ laterites particularly formed circular to elliptical uplands dissected by present day river system. The latosol formed on these laterites supports the plantation of the vast area.

53

FUNDAMENTAL GEOLOGICAL STUDIES 8. Paleontological study of Tertiary sediments of Andaman Island to established biostratigraphy and depositional paleoenvironment.  Oriented thin sections of discrete forms of Nummulite, Operculina, Assilina and Discocyclina have been prepared and studied.  This study confirms the presence of Assilina papillata , A. exponense and Discocyclina. dispansa in Rampur section.  Thin section study revealpresence of fossil algae (Lithothamnion, Jania, Ethelia, Rivularia, Calliarthron, and Trinocladus).  Study of Trace fossils reveal presence of ichnogenus Planolites and Ophiomorpha.

9. Ichnological study of the Bay of Bengal coast in West Bengal and Orissa for depicting the temporal effects of recent and sub recent sea level changes on costal geoenvironments, ecology and biodiversity.  Data of the beach profiling, taken anew across the Bakkhali – Frazegunj coast during the second phase of field work and processed.  Comparison of the new set of profiles with the earlier set reveals changes in the coastal morphology

23. CORE LIBRARY The Regional Core Library, Geological Survey of India Eastern Region, started functioning at Bhubaneswar since January, 2010. The Core Library is designed and constructed in such a manner that it can accommodate 4800 no. of drill core boxes systematically. Facility is being created to provide access to the fellow scientists, researcher and students from various earth science organization and University for research and academic activities. Altogether 1603 boxes of skeletonised cores with a total length of 7908.58m have so far been received from different investigations located in the States of Jharkhand, Orissa, and West Bengal and are preserved systematically arranged in cells earmarked for individual states. The preserved skeletonised drill cores are from Iron, Manganese, Bauxite, PGE, Gold, Rare Metals and Coal investigations carried out in different field seasons by different state units of Eastern Region and erstwhile Coal Wing. The process for transferring of cores (skeletonised) of different Mineral Investigations carried out by GSI is continuing and effort is being made to obtain cores from other sister organizations. Core Preservation The drill cores generated from investigations are preserved in GI sheet boxes of 90cm x 30cm x 10cm with a lid. The cores selected as per the guidelines from CHQ have been transferred to the GI sheet boxes. The details of depth of core preserved and borehole numbers were written on two sides of the GI sheet boxes and ghutkas with paint and by engraving. For storage of drill core boxes inside the Core Library in multi-layer system, heavy duty racks with four partitions have been used. The racks are properly arranged in the repository taking maximum advantage of natural ventilation and illumination and keeping sufficient place for movement of men and machinery. Drill core boxes are stacked systematically state-wise as per Project/Investigation, Borehole and depth of cores. Details of the drill Core Preserved So far, the drill cores preserved in the Regional Core Library are from 14 investigations, pertaining to 4 statigraphic bore hole for Gondwana coal and rest 10 for 5 mineral commodities like Iron,Manganese, Gold, PGE, Rare Metals.The drill cores preserved in the Core Repository include boreholes drilled for Iron ore ,manganese and bauxite investigations in Bonai-Keonjhar belt; PGE investigation in Baula-Nausahi M-UM complex in Orissa, Gold investigations from Pahardia and Parasi areas, Jharkhand; Rare Metal investigation from Purulia dist.,West Bengal; and coal investigation from Bokaro Coal field, Jharkhand, Raniganj coal field, Birbhum Coal Field, West Bengal , Talcher Coal Field,Orissa. Out of the 1603 boxes of skeletonised core preserved in the

81

core library, there are 124 boxes with a length of 492.30m of core from 3 Iron ore investigations representing 10 boreholes, 155 boxes with 490.56m length of core from 2 Manganese ore investigations from 13 boreholes, 98 boxes with 1180.65m length of core from 1 Bauxite investigation from 39 boreholes, 50 boxes with 363.65m length of core from 1 PGE investigation from 8 bore holes and 167 boxes with 462.02m of core from 1 stratigraphic bohole in for coal in the state of Odisha. Similarly, there are 92 boxes with 443.70m length of core from 1 Rare Metal investigation representing 23 boreholes, 332 boxes with 1680.25m length of core from 2 stratigraphic boreholes of coal in the State of West Bengal. There are 385 boxes with 1766.55m length of core from 2 gold investigation representing 58 boreholes located and 200 boxes with 1028.90m drill core from 1 stratigraphic borehole of coal in Jharkhand. As per the Policy Guideline for establishing National Drill Core Library and recommendations of the Core library Committee, modernization of the core library at Bhubaneswar is in progress. Litholog data available for all skeletonised drill core have been entered in MS Excell format. Database framework for data connectivity has been created in MS Access incorporating borehole details, storage position in the library, litholog, major oxide and trace element analytical data, petrography, ore characteristics, mineral chemistry,etc. To begin with litholog data from Excel spreadsheet is entered in MS Office Access format for the two stratigraphic boreholes drilled in Raniganj Coal Field, Burdwan and Birbhum Coal field, Birbhum,WB. Procurement of desktop computers, microscope, and hydraulic forklift is on the process and all other requirements to facilitate visitors are being procured. On receipt of the awaited detail information on the skeletonised drill cores from State Units, data for other parameters will be entered in MS Access which will facilitate visitors/users in the study of desired core. Besides, the core library is gradually creating an information base by studying petrological and petrochemical characters at the local level. The present status of drill core library is given below.
