Abstract:Chemistry and micromorphological studies of calcretes occurring in the interdunal calcpan site of Singi Talav, near Didwana, Rajasthan, India are presented in this paper. These analyses reveal that the calcretes are formed by a process of reprecipitation and recementation. They are pedo-sedimentary and are also affected by groundwater during origin. A geomorphic model for explaining the evolution of the calc-pan site is suggested.
