Title: Proterozoic orogenesis and crustal evolution in the Central Indian Tectonic Zone: current understanding from recent works
Abstract: In the past few years, a huge amount of geological, geochemical and geochronological data have been generated from the southern margin of the Central Indian Tectonic Zone (CITZ) which gives enough clues for understanding the tectonothermal history and Proterozoic orogenesis of the central Indian craton and its implication for the Proterozoic supercontinent assembly.Relevant works published in last four years (2015-2019), with the background geological and tectonic context, are briefly reviewed here.The outstanding geological controversies are also outlined.
