| Abstract: | A few nearly N-S trending and extensive post-Precambrian lineaments have been observed on Landsat images and aerial photographs of the Shillong Plateau, Indian Shield. These lineaments are associated with an alkaline-ultramafic-carbonatite suite of rocks of seemingly Cretaceous age. It is inferred that the N-S trending lineaments and the associated carbonatite intrusives are genetically related to the Ninety-East Ridge in the Indian Ocean. Further, these lineaments appear to be important in governing the neotectonic activity in the area. © 1988. |
