The Sargur Schist Complex - An Archaean High-Grade Terrain in Southern India
The Sargur sohist complex contains Archaean quartzo-feldspathic tonalitic gneisses of mixed origin. and tight to isoolinally folded remnants of quartzite K pelite-carbonate shelf facies sediments. Relics of layered ultramatic-gabbroanorthosite (minor) complexes with cumulate textures occur as discon...
