A structural-geology study of India’s Gondwana basins

Part of Elsevier’s Problems and Solutions in Structural Geology and Tectonics series, this volume synthesizes research on the tectonic setting and basin architecture of Gondwana basins within the Indian Shield. It examines stratigraphic reconstruction alongside the roles of extension and lateral movement in basin formation. The book also places these basins within the larger geological questions of supercontinent assembly, breakup, and recurring supercontinent cycles. Coal reserves are identified in the source as part of the region’s economic importance, linking the geological framework to a significant resource context.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Geology students and researchers studying structural geology or tectonics
  • Readers focused on Gondwana stratigraphy and Indian Shield geology
  • Earth scientists interested in basin formation and supercontinent cycles

Book overview

Tectonic Setting and Gondwana Basin Architecture in the Indian Shield, Volume Four, is the newest book in the Problems and Solutions in Structural Geology and Tectonics series from Elsevier, and is a synthesized monograph on the tectonic settings of Gondwana basins of India. It is a unique book on a topic of national and international interest, especially given the economic importance of the region (coal reserves). The book is authored and edited by very experienced theoretical experts and explores and reconstructs unified stratigraphic research of the region, including the relative role of tension and lateral movement in basin formation.

Basin formation is the driving force behind formation and break-up of supercontinents and the time frame of supercontinent cycles.
