Major advances have taken place in our understanding of different geological aspects related to the Precambrian, of the world during the recent past and the Indian subcontinent played an important role in it. The man objective of this book is to bring together key workers from around the world who have made significant contributions to the understanding of the Indian Precambrian. The book has been aimed to focus on current areas of research giving a clear picture of recent advances in the field of stratigraphy, structure, sedimentation, tectonics, geochronology, mineral deposits and petrology of the Precambrian rocks of India. A galaxy of eminent geoscientists from India. U.S.A., Australia and Germany have contributed to the volume. The book will be an invaluable and everlasting reference for those specializing in The Precambrian Geology of the world who need updated information and current research on the Indian Precambrian. It will be equally useful for advance level geology students and research scholars through out the world.
