Abstract:The post-orogenic terrestrial accumulations of Dupitila Formation (Mio-Pliocene) have been studied for the first time in the Cachar Thrust Fold Belt of Northeast India employing facies and architectural element analysis techniques. Six lithocolumns measuring 85 m in thickness were analyzed at the outcrop level with minimum resolutions of 20-30 cm. Seven lithofacies, namely clast-supported horizontally stratified gravel (Gh), matrix-supported planar cross-bedded gravel (Gp), trough cross-bedded sandstone (St), … Show more
