Tectonic Fabric, Geochemistry, and Zircon-Monazite Geochronology as Proxies to Date an Orogeny: Example of South Delhi Orogeny, NW India, and Implications for East Gondwana Tectonics

Tectonic Fabric, Geochemistry, and Zircon-Monazite Geochronology as Proxies to Date an Orogeny: Example of South Delhi Orogeny, NW India, and Implications for East Gondwana Tectonics

We have dated the South Delhi orogeny, Aravalli-Delhi Mobile Belt (ADMB), NW India, using the tectonic fabric, geochemistry, and zircon-monazite geochronology as the proxies. The South Delhi Terrane (SDT), a passive margin domain in the ADMB, consists of multiply deformed (D1–D4) greenschist facies...
