Geochemistry of the Precambrian Magmatic Rocks of Mayurbhanj District, Orissa
Subscribe/Renew Journal
In the Mayurbhanj area, Orissa, Badampahar group of rocks formed the cratonic block for younger Dhanjori Group. From the composition of the chilled facies of the gabbro-anorthosite, the parent magma is believed to be low in potash and alumina. The chondrite normalised REE pattern of the ultrabasic rock of Badampahar Group is unfractionated. In contrast, the gabbro-anorthosites have fractionated REE pattern with Eu anomaly. The degree of fractionation increases in the granite-granophyres. Th/U ratios systematically increase with the total REE content. It is suggested that the source region of the magmatic rocks is anomalous in respect of the large ion lithophile elements.
