| Research Abstract |
In peninsular India, there are Proterozoic Lavas extending large area. The ages of these rocks are reported 1500-1600 Ma by K-Ar and Rb-Sr dating methods and we have reported the relation of these rocks to the Dwar Khola dolerite (1600-1800Ma 40Ar-39Ar ages) from Siwalik of Sub-Himalaya, situated about 400km north, before. We have collected these samples in 2003 and report 40Ar-39Ar age results in this paper.
These volcanic rocks are situated in the Proterozoic metamorphic and granitic rocks and divided 4 parts ((Dalma, Dhanjori and Jagarnathpur, Ongabila). Plateau ages about 1700-1800 Ma as those of Nepal dolerites cannot be obtained.
All age spectrum show disturbed pattern by metamorphism or excess Ar pattern.
From these results, we conclude 5 ages for these volcanic rocks.
1)1800-2000Ma ; original age same as those of Nepal Dolerites.
2)1550-1670Ma ; original age or metamorphic age
3)1400Ma ; metamorphic age
4)950-1050Ma ; metamorphic age which is recognized in intruded rocks in Napier Complex, Antarctica.
5)450-550Ma ; metamorphic age corresponding to the Pan African Metamorphism.
