Siliciclastic rocks around Surgutaria viIIage are mature to sub-mature quartzarenites to quartz-wackes, Quartz-wackes are produced due to extensive readjustment of sericite-chert matrix during phyllomorphic stage of development in the arenite frame work. Various statistical parameters, and current structures clearly reveal that the deposition of siliciclastics took place in a stable shallow marine to tidal flat environment.
