Mineralogy of the carbonate sediments - western continental shelf of India
(Elsevier, 1981)
An X-ray diffraction study of forty-six sediment samples and three oolitic limestone samples from the western continental shelf of India shows that aragonite is the dominant carbonate mineral (99% maximum), followed by ...
Carbonate mineralogy and faunal relationship in tropical shallow water marine sediments: Cape Comorin, India
(Elsevier, 1982)
The carbonate mineralogy of Recent sediments from the western and eastern continental shelves around Cape Comorin off the southern tip of India was determined by X-ray diffraction analyses. The results show that in the ...
Heavy Minerals in the Sediments on the Outer Continental Shelf between Vengurla and Mangalore on the West Coast of India
(Geological Society of India, 1981)
Fifty-eight sediment samples from the outer continental shelf between Vengurla and Mangalore were analysed for heavy minerals consist of principally opaques, hornblende, epidote, garnet, sillimanite, hypersthene and zircon, ...
Surficial Sediments of the Continental Shelf off Karnataka
(Geological Society of India, 1981)
The continental shelf in this area is about 80 km wide and the edge of the shelf varies between 90 and 120 m water depth. Geologically modern fine-grained clastic sediments occur between the water depth. Geologically modern ...
