Aravalli Craton and its Mobile Belts: An Update
Fareeduddin, D. M. Banerjee
Abstract
The plate tectonic models for the generation of the Aravalli and Delhi basins postulate the existence of a cratonic segment towards northwestern parts of the Aravalli Craton. The recent report of Eoarchean and Neoarchean zircon in the Delhi hinterland in the NDFB indicates the existence of an elusive Marwar Craton.
