“…It is bounded by the Sukinda Thrust zone in the south, Eastern Ghats Belt to the south‐east, the Bastar Craton to the south‐west, and the North Singhbhum Mobile Belt in the north, which is in close proximity of the Proterozoic Chotanagpur gneissic complex (Mondal, Ripley, & Robert Frei, 2006). This craton (Figure 1) has a complex history of geologic and thermogeodynamic evolution, associated with sedimentation, deformation, and sustained episodic magmatism since the Palaeoarchean (Acharya et al, 2010a, 2010b; Bose, 2009; Chatterjee, De, Ranaivoson, Mazumder, & Arima, 2013; Chaudhuri, Wan, Mazumder, Ma, & Liu, 2018; Dey et al, 2019; Dey & Moyen, 2020; Manikyamba et al, 2015; Mazumder, Bose, & Sarkar, 2000; Pandey et al, 2019; Radhakrishna & Naqvi, 1986; Ramakrishnan & Vaidyanadhan, 2008; Rekha et al, 2011; Saha, 1994; Sengupta et al, 1997; Sharma, 2009; Singh et al, 2017; Upadhyay et al, 2019). Crustal formation in the craton possibly started as early as in the Hadean and got subsequently remobilized till the end of the Palaeoarchean.…”
