The Ambadongar sub-volcanic carbonatite alkali complex is located about 140 km east of Vadodara, Chhota Udepur district, Gujarat, India and falls in Survey of India Toposheet No. 46 K/1. The complex intrudes Bagh sandstone (Cretaceous) and overlying Deccan basalts (Eocene) and is situated in the Narmada rift zone. The carbonatites came into prominence in the early 1960s with significant discoveries of fluorite and conspicuous radioactivity located near Chhota Udepur, at Ambadongar, the erstwhile Baroda district, Gujarat. Earlier workers have clarified many aspects of the carbonatite complex.
