Abstract

Folds of different style and orientation, bent hinges of folds, curved lineations on folded or planar foliation, folds torn to form boudins and tectonic inclusions of diverse shapes, chocolate-tablet boudins, interference patterns like mirror-image type folds, irregular domes-and-basins and eyed folds-all these small-scale structures provide ample evidence for superposed deformations in the Precambrian terrain around Jawad in the Udaipur district, Rajasthan. Variation in the attitude of foliation, axial planes and axes of small folds of different styles and the related lineations finds a rational explanation in the tectonic model drawn from the geometry of directly observable structures.
