BRIEFING BOOK CENTRAL REGION

(For the period ending December 2010)

1. INTRODUCTION The Central Region of Geological Survey of India was established on 1st August, 1967

with the Circle Offices at Madhya Pradesh (including the Circle Office of the present State of

Chhattisgarh) and Maharashtra having headquarters at Bhopal and Pune respectively. The

circle offices were mainly involved with the systematic geological mapping and assessment

of mineral resources. At the Regional Headquarters specialised divisions like Engineering

Geology, Map compilation, Geophysical investigation, Chemical Laboratory and Drilling

were established.

Central Region covers geographical area of 0.751 million sq km in the states of

Maharashtra (3,07,713 sq km), Madhya Pradesh (3,08,150 sq km) and Chhattisgarh (1,35,195

sq km).

Over the years, the Central Region has exapanded its activities and set up its offices at

Raipur, Jabalpur, Bhopal, Pune with the Headquarters in Nagpur. The activity was further

expanded to Photogeology & Remote Sensing, Regional Integrated Survey, Quaternary &

Environmental Geology and the Geodata Division equipped with LAN and WAN

connectivity including IP Phones.

Geologically it represents:

- Archaean Rocks, hosting a majority of mineral occurrences in Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra & Madhya Pradesh.

- Proterozoic Rocks, including limestones and diamondiferous conglomerates of the Vindhyan in Madhya Pradesh.

- Gondwana Sequence , a storehouse for coal-lignite and refractory clays. - Deccan Continental Flood Basalts: Late Cretaceous-Early Palaeocene: lava flows

covering Peninsular shield in Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra & Chhattisgarh and

associated sedimentaries represented by Lameta and intertrappean beds.

GEOLOGICAL CONTEXT

Geologically, the Central Region mainly comprises parts of the peninsula shield and

coastal areas.

CHHATTISGARH

Geologically, Chhattisgarh constitutes rock formations ranging in age from Archaean

to Recent. Northern Crustal Province (NCP) and the Southern Crustal Province (SCP)

separated by East-West trending Central Indian Shear Zone (CISZ) are the important and

major tectonic features.

The oldest rocks in the NCP i.e. the granite gneisses and the enclaves of igneous and

sedimentary rocks of Archaean age are confined to southern part of the Province in the

Bilaspur-Raigarh belt. The NCP is devoid of any volcano-sedimentary sequence and

Proterozoic cover rocks, unlike the SCP. The Gneisses and granitoids exposed to the east of

Mahanadi basin are designated as Chhotanagpur Gneissic Complex Though the younger

sequences of Upper Carboniferous to Lower Cretaceous Gondwana rocks are well developed

in the Mahanadi and South Rewa basins, north of Baikuntapar in Surguja area, these two

basins merge together. Lameta Group is exposed in the Amarkantak plateau region below the

Deccan Trap. Remnants of Deccan Trap occur in the plateaus in the western and northeastern

parts of Bilaspur District and southeastern and eastern part of Surguja District. Laterite and

bauxite pockets occur at Jamirapat and Manipatin, Surguja District and Phutka Pahar, Korba

District. Quaternary alluvium is confined to major river valleys.

The SCP is an Archaean to Neoproterozoic assembly of lithotectonic association

comprising Archaean to Palaeoproterozoic Bengpal, Sukma, Bailadila, Sonakhan Groups,

gneiss-granitoids and younger Meso to Neoproterozoic cover rocks of Chhattisgarh,

Indravati, and Pakhal Groups. Together they constitute the Bastar Craton. Palaeoproterozoic

volcanic rocks of Nandgaon Group extend in N-S direction into the western part of bordering

Maharashtra. The Dongargarh and its equivalent granites in Madanbera and Kanker- Mainpur

areas occupy major portion of South Central part of the state. Volcano sedimentary sequence

of Khairagarh and Abujhmar Groups and sediments of Chilpi Group belonging to Palaeo-

Mesoproterozoic unconformably overlie the older sequences and the granites in the Maikala

Range and Abujhmar plateau region. The Mesoproterozoic Pakhal Supergroup occupies the

Godavari valley region in the southwestern part bordering Andhra Pradesh and Maharashtra.

The Meso-Neoproterozoic Chhattisgarh Group of Rocks occupies the plains of Chhattisgarh

region. The cover sediments of Indravati-Sabari-and Pairi Groups are equivalent of Indravati

Group and occupy the Jagdalpur plateau. Rocks of kimberlite affinity intrude in to the


6

Indravati and Khariar sediments and in the gneisses some of which are diamondiferous.

Laterite and bauxite form cappings at number of places over these rocks in Keskal- Amabera

areas.

The state of Chhattisgarh is endowed with rich mineral wealth particularly the iron

ore, coal, bauxite, limestone, tin and diamond. A wide range of mineral resources offering

considerable opportunity for the entrepreneurs is found in the state. GSI is presently focusing

its activities in the state for exploration of fertilizer minerals including rock phosphates. A

sponsored item for establishing iron ore reserves of Aridongri area under MoU with CGMDC

is in progress.

MADHYA PRADESH

Madhya Pradesh as a part of Central Indian Shield (CIS) contains the rocks ranging

from Archaean to Phanerozoic age. The Central Indian Shield is divided into two broad

tectonic domains i.e. the Northern Crustal Province (NCP) and the Southern Crustal Province

(SCP)- by a long crustal scale curvilinear ENE-WSW trending ductile shear zone called

Central Indian Shear Zone (CISZ) which continues from southwest of Balaghat to north of

Bilaspur in Chhattisgarh. Son-Narmada-Tapti valley (SONATA) forms a major zone of

tectonic activities in this region.

The oldest litho-assemblages of Archaeans mainly consist of the gneissic

complexes viz. Bundelkhand, Amgaon, Sidhi, Alirajpur, Betul Gneissic Complex and Tirodi

Gneisses. The Palaeo to Neoproterozoic cover sediments are represented by Mahakoshal

Group, Sausar Group covering parts of Balaghat and Chhindwara districts, Aravalli

Supergroup in Jahabua District, Volcano-sedimentary sequence of Betul belt, Nandgaon

Group in Balaghat District, Malanjkhand, Bijawar Group in Sagar, Chhatarpur and Harda

districts, Gwalior Group in Gwalior District, Chilpi Group in Balaghat District and Vindhyan

Supergroup covers parts of Sidhi, Rewa, Satna, Panna, Chhatarpur, Sagar, Bhopal Shivpuri

and Guna districts along with the Dongargarh granites in Balaghat District.

Late Palaeozoic- Mesozoic (200- 100 Ma) sequences are represented by

Gondwana Supergroup, Bagh Group and Lameta Formation. The Gondwana hosts many

important coal fields in the Satpura region. Bagh Beds (100 Ma) in Dhar, Jhabua and

Khargone districts rich in faunal remains like bivalves, gastropods, ammonites and echinoids.

The Lameta Formation preserves excellent vertebrate fossils including dinosaur nesting sites.

Deccan Flood Basalt Sequences (DCFB) (Upper Cretaceous-Palaeogene)

mostly comprising basaltic flows and associated sedimentary beds cover a major part of

southern and western part of the state. Laterite cover of Cenozoic period occurs as capping on


7

the high plateaus formed by Deccan Traps. All the aluminum deposits in the state have

formed in the Cenozoic rocks. The Quaternary sediments of Narmada valley has yielded 500,

000 years old skull of Narmada man (Homo erectus narmadensis) from Hathnora in Sehore

District.

The state is blessed with bountiful mineral resources including Coal, Bauxite,

Limestone, Dolomite, Rock phosphate, Copper, Lead, Zinc, Manganese, Iron ores, Diaspore,

Pyrophyllite and Diamond. More than half of the countrys manganese production comes

from the state. The state is also bestowed with huge reserves of coal in Sidhi, Singhrauli,

Shahdol, Umariya and Chhindwara districts. Presently, the only diamond producing mines in

India are located in Panna District. Establishing resources for Copper deposits in

Malanjkhand in Balaghta District is the most significant contribution of GSI to the National

Mineral Wealth. Prospects of base metals have been proved by GSI in recent years in the

Betul Belt. Sizeable resources of gold associated with copper, silver and lead have also been

established recently in the Imaliya Block of Katni District. A large economically viable

reserve of Refractory, SMS and BF grade low-silica dolomite proved by GSI of Sagar and

Chhatarpur districts is a boon to the iron and steel industries.

MAHARASHTRA

Maharashtra exhibits a spectrum of stratigraphic sequences of rocks ranging from

Archaean to Quaternary. The oldest Archaean gneisses, variously designated as Amgaon

Gneiss, Bengpal Gneiss, Tirodi Gneiss and Peninsular Gneiss are well exposed in different

parts of the state. The Archaean gneissic complex is unconformably overlain by the

metamorphosed volcano-sedimentary rocks of Sakoli Group and banded ferruginous

quartzite, metapelites, quartzites of Archaean to Palaeoproterozoic age. The 3000 m thick

unfosiliferous plateformal cover sediments exposed along Godavari valley is classified into

Pakhal, Penganga and Sullavahi groups. Basic and ultrabasic rocks exposed in Sindhudurg

District are considered to be an extension of the Chitradurga Group of rocks of Karnataka and

Goa.

The Palaeoproterozoic acid volcanics and volcanoclastics of Nandgaon Group are

exposed in the easternmost Gondia and Gadchiroli districts, is intruded by Dongargarh

Granite (2500 m.y.). Palaeo to Mesoproterozoic Khairagarh Group is consisting of bimodal

volcano-sedimentaries unconformably overly on the Dongargarh Granite. The rocks of

Sausar Group occur in Nagpur and Bhandara districts exposed in a 75 km wide and 210 km

long belt extending into Madhya Pradesh.


8

The Late Palaeozoic to Mesozoic fluvial sedimentary sequence of Gondwana

Supergroup is exposed in the Wardha Valley region of Chandrapur, Yavatmal and

Gadchiroli districts extending northward in Kamthi and Umrer areas of Nagpur District.

A minor proportion of fossiliferous sedimentary rocks of the marine Bagh Formation

and freshwater Lameta Formation are exposed below the Deccan Flood Basalt Sequences

(DCFB). A major part of Maharashtra is covered by with tholeiitic basalts of DCFB (Upper

Cretaceous to Palaeocene). The DCFB associated with intertrappean sediments are classified

as Sahyadri Group and Satpura Group.

The Quaternary deposits are mainly confined in Tapti, Purna and Godavari valleys

and the fluviomarine deposits in the west coast. Laterite cappings cover almost all the rock

formations but mostly over the Deccan Trap basalts.

The eastern and southwestern parts of Maharashtra are occupied by stratigraphically

older rock formations forming a repository of vast mineral wealth including manganese, coal,

sillimanite, kyanite, copper, dolomite, limestone, bauxite and iron ore. GSI has remained

involved with the mineral investigations for gold, tin-tunsten and basemetals and established

the resources. Presently, the activities of GSI are more focused on mineral exploration for

base metals and PGE (Platinum Group Elements) in Chandrapur and Gadchiroli districts. The

geothermal prospects established along west coast are future potential for harnessing

geothermal energy.

Corporation.

vii. Detailed study of Dasgaon Landslide, Raigad District, Maharashtra.

In addition the Central Region has successfully completed projects on seismic Hazards,

seismic risks, seismic rigidity, liquefaction potential impedance contrast for the City of Mumbai

and has already generated the report.

Multidisciplinary study sponsored by Archeological Survey of India for suggesting

remedial measures for the conservation of World Heritage Sites including Ajanta, Ellora and

Aurangabad caves in Maharashtra; and Bhimbetka rock shelters, Jain monuments around

Gwalior Fort and Mala Devi Jain temple at Gyraspur, Madhya Pradesh were successfully

completed. A slew of remedial measures suggested by GSI to minimize the damages are being

implemented by ASI.

Fundamental Geosciences:

Palaeontology: Research projects for deciphering the environmental and climatic changes owing to Deccan Volcanic eruption (Maastrichtian-Palaeocene) and, for


21

assessing its effect on the biodiversity, the sediments associated with Deccan

Continental Flood Basalt (DCFB) Sequences of Wardha-Yeotmal-Nanded;

Chhindwara -Mandla - Jabalpur and Lower Narmada/Bagh valley in Dhar-Khargone

diustricts, were taken-up. The study remained focused on palynology and dinosaur

fauna- that are the two reliable tools for correlation. The study has resulted in

providing time constraints for determining the age of the different formations of the

various groups (Sahyadri, Amarkantak, Satpura and Malwa groups) of DCFB.

Environmental and climatic changes from semiarid with strong seasonality to

inceasing humid across the Deccan Volcanic transition are indicated. Different

palynoevents including first appearance of diatoms and dinoflagellates in freshwater

Late cretaceous (Maastrhitan/29R) and appearance of fungal spike zone have been

recorded. Presence of a major sea-way across central India in Palaeocene time has

been recorded based on the presence of planktic forams in intertrappean sediments of

Jhilmili (Chhindwara). Based on the studies a spatio-tempral correlation of the DCFB

sequences of different geographically separated subprovinces has been established.

The items are continued in FS 2010-12.

The item on the preparation and study of the undescribed dinosaur bones in the collection of Indian Museum, Kolkata, has resulted in identifying one new species of

Abelisaurid theropod and one species of a smaller theropod (Laevisuchus). The

original fossil site excavated in 1917-1920 by Charles Matley was rediscovered at

Chotta Simla, Jabalpur, based on the archieves from British Museum of London. This

item is taken up as a new item to carry out Taxonomic revision and to describe the

new Abelisaurid Theropod during FS 2010-12.

Petrology: During F.S. 2009-10 Investigation has been taken-up for detailed petrographic studies of mineralized zones, alteration zones and associated rock types

of BanskhapaPipariya block in Betul belt, Madhya Pradesh. Intense wall rock

alterations are recorded on the surface as well as core samples due to pervasive

hydrothermal activity. The main wall rock alterations viz. chloritization, biotitization,

sericitization, sausaritization, silicification and epidotization are present. The sulphide

mineral assemblage recorded includes sphalerite, pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena,

covellite, pyrrhotite, along with gold. However, oxides are also recorded viz., zincite-

franklite, goethite and hematite.Release of sphalerite from probably Zn rich biotite


22

and breakdown of gahnite is recorded.At least four phases of mineralization is

recorded based on textural relationship between ore minerals and also between ore

and gangue minerals. All the four phases studied are conspicuously related to

hydrothermal activity.

During the current FS 2010-12 new item on Petrography and geochemistry of mafic-ultramafic suite of rocks with emphasis on evolution and associated mineralization of

Mordongri area in eastern part of Betul belt, Chhindwara district, Madhya Pradesh

has been taken up.

Museum and Curatorial Activities:

The Central Region a has a Regional Museum and Curatorial Division located at Nagpur

having the rock, mineral and fossil specimens displayed in a manner following a specific

stratigraphic theme. Detailed information on the occurrence of minerals in the Central Region

has been displayed both as posters and back-lits. The museum has a distinction of having a vast

collection of diverse type dinosaur eggs. Importantly, the Museum has acquired a life size-model

(in fiber-glass) of a Late Cretaceous snake (Sanajeh indicus) predating upon a sauropod

hatchling inside a nest. The model is based on the preparation and study of the snake fossil under

a joint collaborative programme involving GSI, C.R. and University of Michigan Museum of

Palaeontology (UMMP) under MoU. The model has been presented by UMMP to GSI. There are

large number of visitors including the students both at school and college levels, researchers and

professional. The specimens in the Museum are also made available to the students and

researchers as a reference material.

In addition museums are also located in the operational offices at Bhopal, Jabalpur and

Pune highlighting the local geology and mineral occurrence.

Recently Home Theatre for Audio-video presentation to visitors has been procured, also

added to plastic model of Snake predating dinosaur eggs and some specimens & exhibits to the

museum.

GSI, C.R. was involved in establishing the Prehistoric Gallery in the Museum Park of the

Raman Science Centre, Nagpur- a Regional Museum under National Science Council.

Library:

GSI, CR has a well-established Regional Library at Nagpur. Since Januray 2009 On Line

library facilities has been made available for all the 106 journals of Elsevier. The journals are

available from January 1994 onwards. This facility is extended to all the operational offices of

the Central Region. It is now proposed to extend the On line journal referencing to the students

and research scholars visiting the C.R. Library on request.

In addition, all the operational offices at Bhopal, Jabalpur, Raipur, Pune and Nagpur are

also having the library facilities with selected earth science journals, text books and GSI reports.

Additional new books have been recently procured (F.Y. 2009-10) and added to the

library for consultation of officers.

Regional Core Library:

General: Nearly 20,000 m of drill cores obtained from 82 field investigations carried out

by Central Region have been preserved in the Regional Core Library at Nagpur with access to

the fellow scientists, researcher and students from various earth science organization and

University for the research and academic activities. The process is on for transferring of Cores

(skeletonised) of different Mineral Investigations carried out Mineral Exploration Corporation of

India Limited and will be added to Regional Core Repository.

GSI has carried out drilling for exploration of base metal, chromite, gold, diamond,

manganese, bauxite, limestone, coal for establishing stratigraphy and to test geothermal energy

in a few selected areas, in the states of Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. The job

of preservation of drill core generated from these investigations by Central Region, AMSE Wing

and Coal Wing was taken up from the field season 2003-04. The Regional Drill Core Repository

for Central Region, GSI is established in a 150 long and 100 wide shed located at GSI,

Seminary Hills, Nagpur.

Core Preservation

The drill cores generated from investigations is 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 at two sides of the GI sheet boxes and ghutkas with paint and by engraving.

For storage of drill core boxes inside the shed in multi-layer system heavy duty racks

with four partitions are designed. 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, Project, Borehole

and depth wise in the heavy duty racks.

Storage of technical data pertaining to the Drill Core preserved

For storage of data pertaining to the drill core preserved, a computer application using

MS Access for storage of data and Visual basics for display is programmed. The fields for the

details of Project, Boreholes, Lithology, Trace elements analyses data, Whole rock analyses data,

Petrological details of thin and polished sections examined, EPMA studies carried out and

Storage details of the boxes in the repository. The Application has the facility Search the Project

number and other details using six different criteria like Title of the Project, District, State,

Geologists associated, Commodity and Item code.

14. ESTATE MATTERS The Central Region has its own office buildings at Nagpur, Bhopal, Jabalpur, Raipur &

Pune. Besides this there are residential quarters at Pune & Jabalpur.

Excluding Raipur, all other office buildings are 20 or more years old and in need of

regular maintenance every year. Earlier CPWD used to maintain these building from the budget

grant received by it from the union Govt. Since last three or four years the CPWD has been

treating routine maintenance as deposit work( due to scarcity of funds with them) & asking for

budget allotment for the same. The CRO has been given meager budget allotment under minor

works head during last few years. As such no routine maintenance has been done through

CPWD. As a result, the buildings are in pathetic condition profusely leaking, sanitary and

plumbing lines have been damaged extensively, boundary & parapet walls weakened. Street

lighting, old electrical wiring has weakened /damaged especially in chemical labs due to acidic

fumes. This situation is creating problems every now & then in smooth functioning of office.
