Abstract:The Central Indian Tectonic Zone (CITZ) is major E-W trending suture zone between Northern and Southern Indian crustal blocks. The southern portion of the CITZ comprises three lithotectonic units: Tirodi Gneissic Complex (TGC), Sausar Mobile Belt (SMB) and Bhandara-Balaghat Granulite Belt (BBGB). Elemental and isotopic data are used to constrain the genesis of granitoids and their protoliths, which may help us to understand the Proterozoic crustal evolution in CITZ. Geochemical and isotopic results are consist… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
