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 Bay of Bengal.
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
controlled by various regional geological and tectonic features. The prominent central highland is
1
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 Andaman
Islands 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
27 30’ N and Longitude 85o 30’ to 89o 45’ E. It encompasses diverse rock types ranging from
o
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
2
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 Raniganj coalfield 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 Andaman Sea 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 300 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
12
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,
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
13
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.

ODISHA
The state of Odisha 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. Odisha 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 Odisha 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.
17
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.
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
18
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 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.

2. ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE
The Geological Survey of India is an attached office of the Ministry of Mines and
undergoing changes commensurate with its new-found status as per the recommendation of high
power committee. The organizational structure of GSI is substantially oriented to meet the needs of
specialization as well as multidisciplinary studies by implementing its scientific studies in mission
mode.
The revised organizational structure, submitted by the Committee as accepted by the
Government, is under the process of implementation and is given in the next page.
2.1. ORGANIZATIONAL SET UP OF EASTERN REGION

The new concept of Mission – Region Hybrid mode of functioning as recommended by the
HPC was partially operationalised in the Eastern Region in FS 2009-10. The FSP calendar has been
modified for the period October 2010 to March 2012 and the period taken up as a single FSP. The
FSP 2010-12 is under implementation in the Eastern region at present and all the opertions being
carried out are as per the Mission – Region hybrid model.

3. PS 50 nos. 53 nos.
4. PCS (Major, Trace, REE) 25 nos. 26 nos.
5. EPMA 15 nos. 4 nos.
Highlight :
Ø Major portion of the mapped area is covered by garnet bearing quartzo-
feldspathic biotite gneiss (BG) and associated with migmatites at places; lenses of amphibolite
constitute the paleosome/restite parts. Few pockets of garnet bearing pyroxene granulite are also
seen within the migmatite. The garnet bearing porphyroclastic granitoid gneiss (PCG) occurs in
parts of the mapped area.The structural data of the foliations/ gneissosity, the area seems to have
suffered at least three phases of deformation (D1, D2, and D3) with corresponding folding episodes
(F1, F2 and F3).
ØThe PCG has been cut across by later pegmatite veins, constituting K-feldspar, quartz ±
black tourmaline. The pegmatite veins, though insignificant in size and numbers, are mostly
sampled for REE and RM mineralization, if any. The petrochemical (PCS) results of three major
granitoids lithounit viz. the BG, the PCG and garnet bearing medium grained granite (MG) have
been plotted for IUGS classification by using GCD kit.
ØIt has been found that petro-chemically, the PCG are mainly Syeno granite and Quartz
monzonite, the BG is Monzo granite and Alkali feldspar granite, and medium grained granitoid
(MG) are mainly Alkali feldspar granite. The analytical results of REE and RM elements of BRS
are still awaited.
The granulite enclaves were classified petrographically which is an improvement over the
the earlier map, Separate linear band( 1 km. long) of leptynite and fine to medium grained
granitoid rocks(MG) hitherto unmapped are new additions over the previous maps.
2. Specialised Thematic Mapping To Examine Inter-Relationship Between Specialised

Highlights:
Ø Pegmatites, aplites and Granites are known as the most important source of Rare
Earth Element (REE) and Rare metals (RM) for the concentration and therefore emphasis was
given to study these units in detail.
Ø The gneisses-migmatites of CGC were subdivided .
Ø Structurally the area has undergone multiphase deformation and is manifested
by different fold patterns and foliation which were studied in detail.

Highlights:An area of 360 sq km has been covered in parts of toposheet 73C/2, 3 on 1:25,000
scale. The rock types and its association may be classified into three main assemblages from
south to north. The southern parts comprising charnockite,quartz –mica-sericite schist and
quartz-biotite gneiss. The NW-SE trending Gondwana sediments comprising green splintery
shale, siltstone and sandstone which is occasionally pebbly in nature. The north and northeastern
parts are being dominated by supracrustal rocks such as quartzite, amphibolites, dolerite dyke
within a vast sea of granitic gneiss. These cratonic assemblages are characteristically devoid of
garnets. The contact between Gondwana with the northern and southern side supracrustals is
faulted. The highly silicified zone represents the fault in the middle area followed by subsequent
subsidence and erosion which probably has provided a linear basin structure for the deposition of
Gondwana (Talchir ) sediments. Younger granite, amphibolites, thick quartz veins/reef,
pegmatite have been intruded into gneiss. The SE part of the assigned area is having good
manganese and iron rich facies.

Highlights:The item in Purulia District, West Bengal (covering TS nos. 73I/7, 10, 11, 14 & 15)
has the objectives to classify different components of granitoids and to decipher their mode of
emplacement and boundary relations with gneiss and migmatites of CGC. The area exposes
gneiss-migmatite with amphibolites, high grade supracrustals (khondalite, calc granulite etc.),
granitoids (hornblende biotite granite and porphyritic granite), olivine gabbro, quartzite, leptynite
and presence of large no. of xenoliths and magmatic enclaves (both felsic and mafic) are
commonly noticed within the granitoids. The regional structural grain has E-W trend defined by
crenulation cleavage in khondalite and axial plane of folds in gneiss-migmatites and it is related to
the 2nd deformational phase. Khondalite is older than granite gneiss. The southern contact of
gneiss-migmatites with the granitoids is marked by an ENE trending shear zone where the
mylonitised granites exhibits down dip stretching lineation.

Highlights: In this executed in Bankura district, West Bengal three varieties of rocks were
found to be exposed in the study area. From north to south they are: anorthosite both massive and
layered types, gneiss-migmatite with bands of leptynite and patches of charnockite and high grade
supracrustals (including khondalite, quartzite, calc silicate rock/granulite and quartzo-feldspathic
schist). In layered anorthosites, the strike of the layering and strike of the axial plane of minor
folds are almost parallel and its orientation is approximately E-W. In khondalites, the major
penetrative foliation is a crenulation cleavage and has E-W to ENE-strike. The axial plane of
minor folds in calc silicate rock also has E-W strike. The dip of the main foliation in these rocks is
moderate to steep towards north. The minor folds are overturned towards south and fold axes are
plunging at low angle towards west. Shear zones of discrete nature are present in all the litho-

Gravity and magnetic surveys have picked up the formational contacts and lithological units within the
study area. Bouguer Gravity Map of the areashows wide variation in anomaly value ranging from -52
mGal to -4 mGal due to diverse lithology. Like wise magnetic values also vary widely between about -
450nT and +450nT due to diverse lithological make-up.

Geophysical mapping employing gravity and magnetic (Total field) surveys was carried out in
SOI toposheet No. 73 E/1, 2, 5, 6 & 9 within Chhotanagpur Plateau area. The basin faults and other
major lineaments in the region with various geological exposures within the study area have been
70
correlated and inferences drawn regarding their subsurface disposition on the basis of quantitative
analysis. On the basis of the study three zones (A, B & C) have been identified. Zone A characterised
by very high gravity and low intensity magnetic anomalies and are attributed to the Granitc gneiss.
Zone B marked by low to moderate gravity and high intensity magnetic anomalies are attributed to
exposed Gondwana supergroup of rocks with lamprophyre dykes. Zone C is marked by very high
gravity zone is due to the faulted contact between Gondwana supergroup and CGC rocks buried under
the soil cover.

Ø The item in Toposheet no. 72 L/10 was taken up as spin off of the NGCM work carried
out during FS 2006-08 and partly during FS 2010-12 due to high concentration of tREE (total Rare Earth
Element) in Composite Stream Sediment Samples which ranged from 249 ppm to 5100 ppm. The item was
formulated with an objective to assess the potentiality of REE /RM mineralization and delineation of
mineralized block if any, for detailed prospecting besides study of nature and characteristics of REE/RM
bearing units.
Ø During the course of mapping, the most significant aplitic granite band has been
identified near Salonia village having length of about one kilometer and width varying between 1m to
10m. This unit has analysed 86.86 to 500.10ppm tREE while the pegmatites have analysed 17.28 to
516.11ppm of tREE.
Ø On the basis of chemical result of 59 samples in respect of REE, 40 nos. of samples have

Investigation for Manganese in Bhagwanpur-Santipur block and Tentalapani block in the

eastern part of the Eastern Ghat granulite belt, Angul district, Odisha reveals that the manganese
mineralization is closely associated with calc silicates and occurs as conformable band for a
82
strike length of 60 m in E-W direction. Manganese mineralised bodies occur in the form of
conformable but discontinuous bands thickly or thinly laminated bodies within Calc silicate granulites and
Quartzite extending with general strike of WNW-ESE dipping 370 towards NNE. The Manganiferous zone
/ horizon is characterized by association of quartzite + garnet (psammitic facies) and calc-silicate granulite
(calcareous facies) with manganese ore bodies lying in between the two. Most of the ores are hard,
compact and fragmented in nature. Manganese minerals found in ore are mostly pyrolusite and
psilomelane. It occurs as globular, botryoidal masses and tend to develop a concentric spherulitic texture.
Five discontinuous manganese ore bands have been exposed in trenches. The trend of ore body trends vary
from E-W to NW-SE direction with low to moderate dip towards north. Its width varies from 2m to 3m and
its strike continuity has been established for 60 m, 50m, 50m, 20m and 15m approximately.
Chemical analysis of 25 nos trench samples received show manganese and phosphorous
concentration varying from 5.02 to 21.03 % and 0.28 to 2.48 % respectively.

delineating prospective areas for PGE. The area comprises mainly mafic-ultramafic bodies like gabbro,
anorthositic gabbro, peridotite-dunite and pyroxenite, intruding into quartzite of Iron Ore Supergroup. A
shear zone trending N600W-S600E is recorded from north of Kararhabeni to west of Benamunda. No
significant surface indication of mineralisation (chromites/sulphides) for PGE has been observed.
However, fine disseminations of chromites and/or sulphides were observed in peridotite unit. A total of
105 BRS and 51 PTS have been collected. Analytical results of 82 BRS and 21 PTS, received so far,
indicate Cr values upto 0.3% and Ni upto 0.22%. High values are mostly from peridotite. Analytical results
of 38 BRS show no encouraging PGE values. SEM-EDX study revealed several gold grains as discrete

Highlights:Petrographic study indicates that the gabbro at SE of Dariakata consists of opaque at

the contact of olivine and altered plagioclase. The opaques are also concentrated along fractures.
In reflected light, these are identified as pyrite ( marginally altered to chalcopyrite) and hematite.
Analytical results of PCS have been interpreted.. In case of the hornblende gabbro, the wt.
percentage of SiO2 ranges from 45.99 48.94, CaO from 13.48 to 15.45, P2O5 from 0.11 to 0.13,
Co from 37 to 38 ppm Cr from 128 to 138ppm, Sr from 423 to 595ppm and Zr from 11 to
13ppm. In case of the normal gabbro the wt. percentage of SiO2ranges from 49.91 to 50.52, CaO
from 11.87 to 12.21, P2O5 0.06, Co from 46 to 50ppm, Cr from 157 to 172 ppm, Sr from 158 to
172 and Zr from 30 to 31ppm. Hornblende gabbro has wt percent of CaO higher than normal
gabbro. The trace elements patterns (values normalized with respect to those of the primordial
mantle, Wood et al. 1979) indicate that Sr anomaly is higher in hornblende gabbro compared to
normal gabbro which indicates replacement of Ca by Sr in the former. The hornblende gabbro is
also olivine normative and contains dissemination of sulphide phases. The higher wt. percentage
of Sr in hornblende gabbro might be due to replacement of Ca in pyroxene by Sr during
alteration to hornblende. As the hornblende gabbro is deficient in SiO2 so Zr could not form
compound, rather the normal gabbro is comparatively enriched in Zr.

associated with the Ophiolite have been isolated and studied from the pelagic sediment samples of Bedonabad,
Group of rocks of Andaman Shore point, Mithakhari, Taylorabad of South Andaman.
Islands. The pelagic sediments occur as detached olistolithic bodies within the
sediments of Mithakhari Group and also as sea floor sediment cover
overlying the basalts or pillow basalts.. Thus, the concept of Ocean
Plate Stratigraphy (OPS) may be applied to decipher the ocean plate
sequence considering the fossil assemblages of the pelagic sediments
and of Mithakhari Group. Radiolarian assemblages from the pelagic
sediments indicate Campanian – Maastrichtian age. Clastic sediments
dominated the sequence from Palaeocene onwards as evidenced by
Planktonic foraminiferal assemblage from the sediments of Lipa Black

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. Skeletonised drill cores have been systematically arranged and preserved in cells
earmarked for individual states (Jharkhand, Odisha, West Bengal and Sikkim). 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.
