Alluvial Sedimentary Records in Indian Precambrian Basins: Implications Toward Unique Precambrian Sedimentary Environment?

Abstract: “Present is the key to the past”—in this all-inclusive uniformitarians’ geological panacea, the Precambrian continental sedimentation system stands out as an odd candidate. The distinctive nature of Precambrian alluvial sedimentation, not analogous to their Phanerozoic counterparts, is highlighted in literature in the absence of rooted vegetation, soil, and an overall greenhouse atmospheric condition. Documentation from Precambrian alluvial deposits around the globe suggests a sedimentation pattern dominated b… Show more

“…Although rivers flowing through such basins have classically been assumed to be braided due to the lack of bank stability imparted by vegetation (Schumm, 1968; Long, 1977; Cotter, 1978; Eriksson et al ., 1998, 2006; Davies & Gibling, 2010; Davies et al ., 2011; Gibling et al ., 2014), a number of examples of the deposits of Precambrian (and thus pre‐vegetation) single‐threaded rivers have been documented (Casshyap, 1968; Pretorius, 1974; Long, 1977; Button & Tyler, 1981; Sweet, 1988; Long & Turner, 2012; Ielpi & Rainbird, 2015; Santos & Owen, 2016; Ielpi et al ., 2017; Ganti et al ., 2019; Barkat et al ., 2020; Chakraborty et al ., 2022; Marconato et al ., 2022, McMahon et al ., 2023). Additionally, recent work has shown that single‐threaded rivers are also pervasive in barren regions with a sufficient supply of fine sediment or ice (e.g.…”
