A Note on the Metamorphism of the Carbonate Rocks of the Sausar Group in the Northwestern part of the Nagpur District
Subscribe/Renew Journal
The Sausar Group rocks (Precambrian) from the highest grade region contain wollastonite in the impure dolomitic marbles (Bichua Stage), but not in the isogradic Lohangi (Sub-stage) calcitic marbles which are characterised by the calcite-quartz association with or without diopside, grossularite and scapolite. The low-variance assemblage of grossularite-plagioclase-wollastonite-calcit ± quartz in the Bichua marbles, together with the muscovite-free sillimanite-biotite ± cordicrite paragenesis in the adjacent schists and their association with migmatites, suggest metamorphic temperatures ncar 650° C at about 3 kb pressure, inferred from geological and petrological evidence. The spatial distribution of the wollastonite-bearing assemblages and their occurrence with amphibole and vesuvianite in the Bichua-Stage marbles, unlike the Lohangi calc-silicate bands. provide evidence for lowering of XCO2 by H2O , F and Cl in the fluid phase which controlled the development of wollastonite in the investigated area.
