The strain history of tectonically deformed rocks may be deduced by petrofabric

study with the help of shape, orientation and axial ratio determination of deformed

minerals and grains in the rock. Under the high stress the minerals are stretched

reoriented and new growth occurred parallel to the less stress direction and

represent a distinct fabric. Thus the individual grain shapes and their orientation

constitute the rock petrofabric. Maximum deformed rocks contain paramagnetic

and ferromagnetic minerals with distinct orientation respond under the

deformational stress in which magnetic fabric study is useful to deduce the strain

pattern. The magnetic fabric study through Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility

(AMS) is first time used by Graham (1954) as a petrofabric element and which

reflects the magnetic susceptibility anisotropy ellipsoid in a rock as the strain

ellipsoid.

The AMS, a physical property of the rock, represents more perfect picture

of deformation then microscopic strain fabric study. Its relationship with fabric of

the rock arises because the most magnetically susceptible minerals can have

distributions of shape orientations or lattice orientations influenced by the

kinematic history of the fabric, and the magnitude ellipsoid of susceptibility may

be a faithful representation of the total fabric (Borradaile, 1988; Aranguren, et al.,

1996). Borradaile (1988), Housen et al. (1993) and Aranguren, et al. (1996) have

shown the geometrical relationship between the magnetic foliation and field

structures and proposed the different models of the composite magnetic fabrics.

The AMS study is very useful to explain the neotectonic stresses and

active tectonics (Borradaile and Henry, 1997; Borradaile and Hamilton, 2004;

Dubey and Bhakuni, 2008). Jayangondaperumal et al. (2010b) have used AMS

fabric to understand the kinematics and infer recent tectonics in the Garhwal

Inner Lesser Himalaya.

The rocks of the area are metamorphosed under the greenschist and

amphibolite facies and contain mainly diamagnetic and paramagnetic minerals,

also explained by Agarwal et al. (2010).

The strain ratios and the orientation of the strain ellipse estimated by

different methods on the fabrics of deformed rocks by different workers.

Srivastava (2004) has used elongated porphyroblasts in augen gneisses to

determine the shape of finite strain ellipsoid, and explained multiple deformations

in the Dudatoli-Almora crystallines. Two dimensional strain estimation from

weakly deformed rocks, where it is difficult to precisely define the longer and

shorter axis of ellipse/grain, have been performed by Srivastava (1995, 2009).

In present work, the petrofabric strain is measured by using AMS

technique and correlated with strain fabric results obtained by using Rf/φ

technique (Ramsay, 1967; Dunnet 1969; Dunnet and Siddan, 1971) and also by

plotting Flinn diagram (Zingg, 1935; Flinn, 1962) of axial ratio of microscopic

elliptical markers.

Application of AMS technique and correlation with meso-microscopic

fabric is also attempted by Jayangondaperumal et al. (2010a), Devrani et al.

(2009) and Agarwal et al. (2010). Mamtani and Vishnu (2011) have investigated

the use of AMS data to provide the information about the shape of the strain

ellipsoid in the micaceous quartzites.

5.1 ANISOTROPY OF MAGNETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY (AMS)

TECHNIQUE:

AMS technique is very sensitive to read the schistosity developed at the last

phase of deformation with early schistosity or bedding. The orientation of

principal susceptibilities represents distribution of magnetic minerals fabric in

rock; however, the rock composition and metamorphic grade may affect the

anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility and bulk susceptibility of rock type

(Borradaile and Henry, 1997; Nakamura and Borradaile, 2004). The bulk

susceptibility (Km), anisotropy susceptibility and other forms of magnetic

anisotropy commonly play a great roll to determine the state of strain and

petrofabric, and are also used as strain indicators. The AMS may be represented

by magnitude ellipsoids, geometrically shaped by three magnetic principal axes

(K1≥ K2≥K3), those are closely related to the strain axes (λ1>λ2 >λ3). There are

two elements, magnetic foliation ‘F’ (K1- K2 Plane) and magnetic lineation ‘L’ (K1)

(Tarling and Hrouda, 1993; Aubourg, et al., 2000; Sidman, et al., 2005) and their

anisotropy parameters are described by eccentricity ‘Pj’ and its shape ‘T’.

Measurement of AMS is a fast method for investigating the fabric pattern

in plastically deformed rocks, and comment about strain in them (e.g., Borradaile,

1991; Tarling and Hrouda, 1993; Nakamura and Nagahama, 1997; Borradaile

and Jackson, 2004; Mukherji et al., 2004; Mamtani and Greiling, 2005; Sen et al.,

2005; Sen and Mamtani, 2006; Mamtani and Sengupta, 2009, 2010; Majumder

and Mamtani, 2009; Agarwal et al., 2010; Vishnu et al., 2010; Pant et al., 2011). It

is the useful method in delineating the changes induced due to brittle deformation

in fractured rocks in faults/thrust zones (Ozima and Kinoshita, 1964; Hallwood et

al., 1992; Nakamura and Nagahama, 2001; Pant, et al., 2011). AMS has been

used successfully to understand deformation and tectonic setup of the Himalayan

region by earlier workers (Jayangondaperumal and Dubey, 2001; Dubey et al.,

2004; Dubey and Bhakuni, 2008; Tripathy et al., 2009; Agarwal et al., 2010;

Jayangondaperumal et al., 2010). In present work the AMS analyses of rocks

from the NASZ (Pancheshwar-Seri-Seraghat-Dwarahat- Gairsen region) are

performed with the aim of evaluating the deformation and tectonics of the region

(Fig. 1). Field and AMS data are compared, and data from thermal

demagnetization of some samples are presented to evaluate the magnetic

carriers of the AMS.

Detail study has been done of the structures along the NASZ, by carrying out the

AMS analysis, which is a useful tool to study fabrics in tectonites.

5.1.1 AMS Parameters

All minerals have magnetic properties at temperatures above absolute

zero (0 K) (Tarling and Hrouda, 1993). The results of the AMS data for all

transects of the area are given in table I, II, III and IV. The magnetic susceptibility

(K) is defined as the ratio between the induced magnetization (M) of the

specimen and the applied magnetic field (H).

K = M/H

The AMS is a second rank tensor with three principal axes (K1≥K2≥K3),

where K1 is the magnetic lineation and K3 is normal to the magnetic foliation

(Tarling and Hrouda, 1993). The bulk magnetic susceptibility ‘Km’ is the arithmetic

mean of the principal susceptibilities (Km = K1+K2+K3/3).

The magnitude of anisotropy is expressed by ‘Pj’ parameter based on

logarithmic values of susceptibility (Jelinek, 1981; Tarling and Hrouda, 1993;

Sidman et al., 2005).

Pj = exp√ [2 {(η1- ηm)2 +( η2- ηm) 2+( η3- ηm) 2}]

Where η1= In K1

η2 = In K2

η3 = In K3

119

ηm= (η1+ η2+ η3)/3

The shape of the anisotropy ellipsoid or eccentricity of the ellipsoid is given

by the shape parameter ‘T’ (Jelinik, 1981; Hrouda, 1982; Borradaile, 1988).

T= [2 In (K1/K2)/In (K1/K2)]-1

The value of T varies from -1 to +1. T>0 implies the oblate shape, whereas T<0

suggests the prolate shape of magnetic susceptibility ellipsoids.

5.2 METHODOLOGY

Oriented rock samples were collected from the area across the NAT. 316 cores

(25.4 mm x 22 mm) from 65 oriented rock specimens were obtained for AMS

analysis. AMS data were generated in the Palaeomagnetic Lab of the Wadia

Institute of Himalayan Geology, Dehradun, India. To determine the AMS, each

core was analyzed in 15 different directions with reference to the north using a

KLY-3 Kappabridge (AGICO, Czech Republic), which has a sensitivity of 2 x 10-6

(SI) and accuracy of 0.1%. AMS study of the specimens of the area revealed the

mean susceptibility values <800 x 10-6 SI, and has been grouped according to

their mean magnetic susceptibility ranges in five groups (i) >500 x 10-6 (SI), (ii)

500-300 x 10-6 (SI), (iii) 300-200 x 10-6 (SI), (iv) 200-100 x 10 -6 (SI) and (v) 100-

10 x 10-6 (SI). These low susceptibilities indicate a minor contribution from

ferromagnetic minerals (Rochette, 1987). In AMS study, the knowledge of

magnetic carriers is very important for reliable results. The recognition of these

magnetic carriers was done in our samples through petrography and

thermomagnetic curves. In order to constrain the ferromagnetic and

paramagnetic contribution, 10 samples of various mean susceptibilities (Gh25, D3,

S5, C105, Gh12, D2, C38, S4, C72 and C10 in order of decreasing susceptibility) were

selected and examined through measuring temperature variation of the bulk

magnetic susceptibility on the samples by using TSD-2 Schonstedt thermal

demagnetizer and temperature variation of susceptibility by using the

Kappabridge (Jelinek and Pokorny, 1997) (Table 5).

In addition to the AMS, the petrofabric strain study with the help of Rf/φ and

Flinn plots was carried out of 13 samples across the NASZ. In this petrofabric

measurement the elliptically deformed feldspar and quartz grains have been used

for strain analysis at the microscopic level. For which sections were prepared by

cutting the specimens in XZ and YZ directions. The mineral elongation lineation

direction is the X-direction of finite strain ellipsoid (Lister and Hobbs, 1980; Joy

and Saha, 2000; Joshi and Tiwari, 2004; Bhattacharya and Weber, 2004),

foliation plane is XY plane and Z is perpendicular the XY plane. The Rf/φ and

Flinn plots are prepared by using the versatile Windows based software, the

“Window32.Bit Platform” developed by Roday (2003).

5.3 AMS STUDY

5.3.1 Petrography and Magnetic Mineralogy

Debacker et al. (2010, 2011), Mamtani and Vishnu, (2011) investigated the

magnetic properties of a variety of lithostratigraphic units of the Brabant Massif.

Magnetic techniques employed are the determination of (a) magnetic

susceptibility (MS, for methodology, see Ellwood et al., 2000 and references

therein), (b) the temperature-dependent variation in MS within the “room

temperature interval” (for methodology, see Herbosch et al., 2008 and Debacker

et al., 2009, 2010), (c) the anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) at room

temperature (for methodology, see Jelinek and Pokorny, 1997), (d) the magnetic

mineralogy by means of a stepwise thermal demagnetisation of a three-axis

isothermal remnant magnetism (for methodology, see Lowrie, 1990).

In present work the magnetic mineral study was done by means of

petrography and stepwise thermal demagnetization method (for methodology,

see Lowrie, 1990).

Each rock unit in the NASZ shows intense deformation and attendant

recrystallization. Petrographic study shows that the mylonitic to proto-mylonite

rocks consist of fine to medium grained quartz, K-feldspar and some amount of

muscovite and biotite. Ultra-mylonitized granite-gneiss contains very fine and lineated

grains of quartz, feldspar, muscovite and biotite with very small ferromagnetic

(pyrrhotite) minerals (Fig. 5.1 a). Schists are mainly composed of biotite,

muscovite, chlorite and garnet (Fig. 5.1 b). Garnet in schists is associated with

quartz, muscovite, biotite, chlorite and plagioclase minerals. Almora quartzite

often displays schistosity that is defined by micaceous minerals. Quartzarenite of

the Rautgara Formation dominantly consists of quartz (diamagnetic minerals)

with <10% paramagnetic minerals. However, at the NAT contact the

metasedimentary rocks are characterized by the presence of biotite and

muscovite (>10%). Thin sections of fractured rocks along the fault zone exhibit

nucleation of very fine grained (~6μm) iron oxides in the micro veinlets intruded

along the microfractures (Fig. 5.1 c, d).

A simple thermal heating of rock sample may cause of not only magnetic

phase transformation but it can change the magnetic mineral grain size. Since

under the different successively applied heating treatment the rock is not

modified, and measurement gives accurate data to determine the magnetic

carriers.

The thermal magnetic heating curves of ten samples represent to discrete

susceptibility and temperature determinations (up to 750°C), which have direct

relation with magnetic carriers and used to identify the magnetic minerals in the

rock specimen (Fig. 5.2). It is noted that samples C105, D2, C38, S4, C72, C10 and

Gh8 contain paramagnetic minerals. Samples D3, S6 and Gh12 show sudden

decrease in susceptibility around 300 to 380°C; this may be due to presence of

some monoclinic pyrrhotite (Dekkers, 1988, 1989; Aubourg et al., 2000). Sample

C105 shows an increase in susceptibility at ~500°C, suggesting that magnetite has

possibly formed during experiment at this temperature (Hrouda, 1994; Hrouda et

al., 1999). The rock units contain predominantly phyllosilicates, which are the

paramagnetic minerals and main source of AMS in schist and gneissic rocks.

Phyllosilicates are important and strongly anisotropic component of tectonites,

and their contribution to AMS has been well documented by Henry (1990, 1992),

Borradaile and Werner (1994), Borradaile (2001), Borradaile and Jackson (2009).

The growth of phyllosilicates (i.e. biotite >10%) controls the magnetic

susceptibility of the rock unit in highly sheared quartzarenite along the thrust/fault

contact (samples C64, C61, C100 and D2). Similarly, the nucleation of iron oxides

(very fine grain magnetite) along the microfractures is found (samples C73, C75,

C98 and C100).

5.3.2 Analytical Results of AMS study

Petrography and thermal demagnetization studies reveal that the most samples

are not significantly influenced by ferromagnetic minerals. However, there are

some samples of ultra-mylonitized granite (Gh12, S6, C98 and D3) from the sharp

contact of the fault plane show relatively high susceptibility with high degree of

anisotropy which is due to presence of ferromagnetic minerals (pyrrhotite,

magnetite). Mylonitized, proto-mylonitized and ultra-mylonitized granite rocks

exposed along the NAT have high magnetic susceptibility (200 – 796 x 10-6 SI),

whereas schistose rocks have relatively low susceptibility (70 – 337 x 10-6 SI).

However the specimens G25 and C105 those have relatively high susceptibility

(Tables I, II, III and IV) due to the presence of porphyroblasts of garnet. Garnet is

characterized by volume susceptibility of the same magnitude as biotite. Although

it does not contribute to anisotropy, it may influence bulk susceptibility (Hrouda

and Ullemeyer, 2001). In general quartzarenite gives negative susceptibility

(contains diamagnetic minerals i.e. quartz) (Gh10). In the study area due to

124

presence of mica content and growth of very fine grain iron oxides, it is giving

positive susceptibility (3 - 192.8 x 10-6 SI) and in some samples it is cause of

high susceptibility with high anisotropy. Few specimens of quartzarenite are

giving high anisotropy (~1.3) with low susceptibility (1 - 8 x 10-6 SI) (Tables I, II, III

and IV), which is due to presence of very thin discrete layers (<20µm) of very fine

grain iron oxide along the microfractures in the specimens (D8A, D36, S8, D25, D5

and C81).

AMS data represents well defined magnetic foliations in the rocks of the

Saryu Formation and shows association to field foliations and deformation in the

area. In thin sections, Shape Preferred Orientation (SPO) is commonly inclined to

the compositional layering, and AMS data are inferred to give resultant schistosity

due to superimposition of crystal orientation on compositional layering.

As early described the whole area is divided into four sectors and AMS

study is taken up accordingly and each sector described in detail domain-vise.

I. Pancheshwar-Seri Sector

Eastern part of the NASZ is studied by taking various traverses across the NAT in

Pancheshwar-Seri sector (Fig 5.3):

The Pancheshwar area comprises N-S and ENE-WSW trending fault

across the NAT inferred by geomorphic and structural data, and strongly

supported by the AMS fabric data of the area. Magnetic foliation planes do vary

with the NAT trend and field foliation, whereas they are showing good

relationship with the N-S and ENE-WSW oriented faults. Due to limited approach

along the ENE and WSW oriented fault plane only two samples were collected,

which are giving N-S (P1 specimen) and ENE-WSW (P2 specimen) magnetic

foliation plane orientation respectively away and near the fault plane trace (ENE-

WSW). Here N-S orientation of the magnetic foliation plane in P1 specimen

represents the impact of the N-S oriented fault (Fig 5.4a).

P3a, P3b and P4 samples were taken along the N-S oriented fault plane

and across the NAT, represent parallel to sub-parallel magnetic foliation

orientations with the fault plane. Magnetic lineations are horizontal to sub-

horizontal, gently plunging towards N (samples P3a, P3b, P4) and W (sample P2).

However somewhere they lie on the intersection of field foliation and magnetic

foliation plane (P2, P4). In figure 5.3 b, Pj vs. Km plot of the granitic gneiss shows

inverse relationship between the values of Pj and Km. The AMS data for mica

schist, micaceous quartzite, granitic gneiss and mylonites lie in neutral to oblate

field (T=1 and T>0) (Fig. 5.4 c, d), which is due to development of flaky

micaceous minerals and may be also due to flattening strain (Mukherji et al.,

2004; Mamtani and Sengupta, 2010; Vishnu et al., 2010).

In Netra domain, the strike of magnetic foliation plane do vary from WNW-

ESE to NW-SE, which are parallel- sub parallel to the NAT trend and making low

angle with field foliation. Magnetic lineations are horizontal to sub-horizontal,

whereas magnetic foliations do vary from gentle to steeply dipping (Fig. 5.5 a). P j

vs. Km plot of the granitic gneiss shows inverse relationship, whereas schist and

ultramylonites representing positive relation between the values of Pj and Km (Fig.

5.5 b). In T vs. Km and Pj vs. T plots data lie completely in oblate field (T>0) (Fig.

5.5 c, d).

In the Ghat domain the geomorphic and structural data inferred NW-SE

trending fault parallel to the NAT (in SW of the NAT) (Fig. 5.6 a). Magnetic

lineations are gentle to steeply plunging towards WSW to SSE directions.

Magnetic foliation planes are vertical to sub-vertical and variably oriented from N-

S to ENE-WSW whereas near the NAT and its subsidiary fault plane, they show

parallel to sub-parallel orientation with the NAT and NW-SE oriented fault (Fig.

5.6 a).

Pj vs. Km plot shows inverse relationship in the granitic gneiss and

protomylonite units (Fig. 5.6 b). Highly sheared quartzarenite represents prolate

to oblate field in the T vs. Km and Pj vs. T plots. The data of granitic gneiss, mica

bearing quartzite and mylonite lie in the neutral to oblate and oblate field,

respectively. Here micaceous quartzite (Saryu Fm.) is showing high anisotropy

with high susceptibility (Fig. 5.6 c, d).

The Rameshwar area is characterized by two faults trending NNE-SSW and

NE-SW. The magnetic foliation planes varyingly oriented ESE-WNW to NNW-

SSE. Near NAT, the magnetic foliations are trending parallel to the NAT plane,

whereas in the proximity of the faults their orientation swings from ESE-WNW

through NW-SE to NNW-SSE. At and around the intersection area of the fault

planes, the strike of magnetic foliation planes are NW-SE and NNW-SSE, where

minimum magnetic axes (K3) on an average oriented towards NE and

Km and Pj vs. T plots are showing prolate to oblate shape of magnetic ellipsoids

(Fig. 5.7 c, d).

II. Seri-Seraghat Sector

This sector of the NASZ is characterized by superposed transverse Rantoli fault

(Valdiya, 1976) or Saryu River Fault (Pant et al., 2007) which coincide with the

trend of the NAT (Fig. 5.8).

At the NW terminal part of the Rantoli Fault the NAT swings from SW to

SSE orientation and coincides with NNW-SSE trend of the fault. Here the

magnetic foliations show parallelism with the NAT and become parallel/sub-

parallel to the Rantoli Fault as moving toward the Fault plane. Stereo projections

show that the magnetic foliations are vertical to sub-vertical, and lineations (K1)

are horizontal near the Fault plane (Fig. 5.9 a), however near the NAT contact

they are gently dipping (with variable orientation) (Fig. 5.9 a). Pj and Km plot

shows positive relationship in the schist and micaceous quartzite (Fig. 5.9 b). T

vs. Km and Pj vs. T plots show prolate to oblate shape of magnetic ellipsoids (Fig.

5.9 c, d).

In the Naichun-Rantoli area the AMS data shows that the magnetic

foliations dominantly represent to NNW-SSE oriented Rantoli Fault. Near the fault

plane the magnetic foliation are parallel to sub-parallel to the Fault plane and

trending NNW-SSE to N-S, whereas one specimen (S7) away from the fault plan

giving WNW-SES trend. Magnetic foliation planes are steeply inclined with

horizontal magnetic lineation except one specimen S6 (gently plunging) (Fig. 5.10

a).

Mica bearing quartzarenite shows high anisotropy with positive susceptibly

(Fig. 5.10 b). Pj and Km data of proto-mylonite, mylonite to ultramylonites explain

the decrease in the susceptibility with increase in anisotropy (proto-mylonite to

mylonite) and then increase in susceptibility with increase in anisotropy (mylonite

to ultramylonites) (Fig. 5.10 b). Here plots are showing positive relationship in the

data of schist and micaceous quartzite. Km vs. T and Pj vs. T plots are

representing neutral to oblate shape of magnetic ellipsoids (T=0 and T>0) (Fig.

III. Seraghat-Dwarahat Sector

Seraghat-Dwarahat sector comprises a large area, has been further subdivided

for detail study into two regions i.e. Seraghat-Someshwar and Someshwar-

Dwarahat.

(i) Seraghat-Someshwar Domain

This region is characterized by NNW-SSE oriented Takula Fault and NE-

SW oriented Rasiyari Fault, however the fabrics of the rock units are dominatingly

controlled by the NAT. the detail AMS study is done across the NAT (Fig. 5.11).

Sampling in the Kaphligair area was carried out across the NAT and along

the Rasiyari fault. Here the magnetic foliation planes have parallel to sub-parallel

orientation with the NE-SW oriented fault plane. Magnetic lineations are

horizontal to gently plunging with vertical magnetic foliation planes (Fig. 5.12 a).

Similar to other area, here AMS data of mylonite in plot Pj vs. Km shows inverse

relation ship (Fig. 5.12 b). In Km vs. T and Pj vs. T plots data lie in oblate (T>0) to

prolate field (T<0) (Fig. 5.12 c, d).

The Kanarichhina area is mainly deducing the NAT dominating AMS

results. Magnetic foliations are steeply inclined, parallel to sub-parallel to the NAT

and lineation gentle to steeply plunging with variable orientations (Fig. 5.13 a).

Magnetic foliation orientations in the Saryu rock units support N-S or

mylonite and mylonite in the Pj vs. Km plot infers inverse relation ship, whereas

schist and mica bearing quartzarenite show positive relation ship between Pj and

field (T<0) (Fig. 5.13 c, d).

(ii) Someshwar-Dwarahat Domain

The Someshwar-Dwarahat is characterized by NNE-SSW trending faults

in Binta-Bagwalipokhar and Someshwar-Ranman areas. AMS study is carried out

precisely in detail, along these faults and across the NAT (Fig. 5.14).

A NNE-SSW oriented fault is passing along the Gagas river across the

NAT and termed Gagas River Fault (Kothyari and Pant, 2008). AMS data

represent vertical to sub-vertical magnetic foliations and gentle to steeply

plunging magnetic lineations with varying orientations. Magnetic foliation planes

near the fault trace are parallel/sub-parallel to the fault, whereas at the vicinity of

the NAT they are parallel/ sub-parallel to the thrust plane (Fig. 5. 15 a). Figure

5.15 b shows inverse relation ship in the Pj and Km data of protomylonite and

mylonite units, whereas mica-bearing quartzite and micaceous-quartzarenites

giving positive relation. In Km vs. T and Pj vs. T plots data lie in oblate (T>0) to

prolate field (T<0) (Fig. 5.15 b, d).

Someshwar-Manan segment is characterized by a NNE-SSW/ Manan

Fault across the NAT. Here magnetic foliations are parallel/ sub-parallel to the

fault trace (NNE-SSW), whereas at the terminal part, magnetic foliations is sub-

parallel (WNW-ESE) to the NAT (ENE-WSW). Magnetic foliation planes show

high angle with the field foliation along the fault trace and at the terminal part they

are at low angle (D25) (which seems to be slightly rotated ENE-WSW to WNW-

ESE due to the movement along the fault) (Fig. 5.16 a). Here also granitic gneiss,

proto-mylonite and mylonite show inverse relationship between Pj and Km (Fig.

5.15 b). In Km vs. T and Pj vs. T plots data lie in oblate (T>0) to prolate field (T<0)

(Fig. 5.16 c, d).

IV. DWARAHAT-GAIRSEN SECTOR

Besides the Seraghat-Seri Sector the northwestern margin of the Almora

Nappe is also superposed by a transverse Chaukhutiya Fault that coincides with

the northeastern margin of the NAT (Valdiya, 1976; Kothyari and Pant, 2008,

Pant et al., 2011). Based upon the homogeneity of structures and tectonites, the

Chaukhutiya Fault is sub-divided into the three domains (Fig. 5.17).

In and around Dwarahat region, the NASZ is relatively narrow. Magnetic

lineations and foliations near the thrust plane are vertical to sub-vertical (Fig. 5.18

a). Magnetic foliations are characterized by variation in their orientations from E-

W to NNE-SSW and magnetic lineation from W to SW, as the trace of the NAT

swings from E-W to NNW-SSE (Fig. 5.18 a). Magnetic lineations in the ultra-

mylonite (sample D3), lie at the intersection of the field and magnetic foliations.

The ultra-mylonites located at the sharp contact of NAT yield high Km and Pj

values, as shown by sample D3 (Fig. 5.18 b). Granite-gneiss and schistose rocks

show linear inverse relationship between Pj and Km values, whereas the

ultramylonite represents totally independent Pj and Km (Fig. 5.18 b). Here the

data, except the ultramylonite sample (D3), falls within the field of lower

amphibolite facies (Borradaile and Henry, 1997; Nakamura and Borradaile,

2004). The shape of the AMS ellipsoid varies from oblate (T>0) to prolate (T<0)

as shown by plots (T vs. Km and T vs. Pj) (Fig. 5.18 c, d). The schist of the Saryu

Formation and mica-bearing quartzarenite of the Rautgara Formation have oblate

shape of stain ellipsoids, whereas mylonite and ultramylonites of the Saryu

Formation show prolate to oblate shapes of AMS ellipsoids.

In Chaukhutiya-Masi area, samples were taken across the NAT, where

magnetic foliations are vertical to sub-vertical (Fig. 5.19a). The strike of magnetic

foliations vary from ESE-WNW to NW-SE and magnetic lineation from SE to

WNW (except C98 sample). The NW-SE orientation of magnetic foliations is sub-

parallel to the trend of the Chaukhutiya Fault.

144

Structural data and geomorphic features represent the E-W oriented

subsidiary brittle faults Ramganga (near Chaukhutiya) and Mahalchauri faults,

their presence are also supported by AMS data (Kothyari, 2008; Pant et al.,

2011).

The magnetic foliation planes are parallel to the Ramganga Fault plane

(Fig. 5.19a). Magnetic lineations are gently plunging in the rock units of the Saryu

Formation and horizontal in the mica-bearing quartzarenite of the Rautgara

Formation. Magnetic lineations at the junction of the Chaukhutiya and Ramganga

faults (sample C98) lie at the intersection of the field foliation and magnetic

foliations (Fig. 5.19 a). In figure 5.19 b, Pj vs. Km plot of the schist rocks shows

inverse relationship between the values of Pj and Km. The ultramylonitized granite

(specimen C98) yields high Km with high Pj value may be due to presence of minor

ferromagnetic minerals (pyrrhotite and magnetite) along with paramagnetic

minerals. On the other hand the data of micaceous quartzite reveals positive

relationship between Km and Pj values. The AMS data for mica schist, micaceous

quartzite and mylonites lie completely in oblate field (T>0). The quartzarenite

(Rautgara Formation) shows a less anisotropy (Pj), and symmetry shows more

neutral (T = 0) to prolate (T<0) shapes of magnetic ellipsoid (Fig. 5.19c and d).

In the Panduakhal region the magnetic foliations are sub-vertical to vertical

having a general E-W orientation with E to ESE plunging magnetic lineation. Near

the Mahalchauri Fault, the lineations are horizontal (samples C76 and C81). The E-

W orientation of magnetic foliations is parallel to the axial plane orientation and to

the Mahalchauri Fault plane, and also varies with orientation of field foliation (Fig.

5.20 a). This variation is inferred to be due to the growth of some magnetic

minerals in the E-W direction due to later influence of deformation that developed

the magnetic foliation trending E-W. Plot Pj vs. Km illustrates inverse relation in

schist rocks and positive in micaceous quartzite, which is similar to the

Chaukhutiya area. It suggests that the anisotropy is high in proximity of NAT

plane and is low away from it (Fig. 5.20 b). Data of Pj, Km and T fall in oblate field

(Fig. 5.20 c, d), which is due to development of flaky micaceous minerals.

In Gairsen-Dewalikhal section samples were collected from a narrow shear

zone across the NAT (Fig. 5.21). This domain shows identical orientations of field

and magnetic foliations. The magnetic foliations are nearly parallel to the field

foliations (except specimen C57). Similar magnetic foliations in the Gairsen area

show E-W to NW-SE swing in their orientations and become parallel to thrust

plane towards the NAT. The magnetic lineations vary from E to W and NNW to

SSE in the rock units of the Saryu Formation whereas in the quartzarenite, it is

vertically dipping. The magnetic lineations in the samples C55, C56 and C60 lie at

the intersection of the field foliation and the magnetic foliations. In the Dewalikhal

area it shows WNW-ESE orientation, which is sub-parallel to the NW-SE oriented

NAT plane. Besides this the magnetic lineations show ESE orientation in the

rocks of the Saryu Formation and WNW orientation in the quartzarenite (Fig.

5.21).

In the Gairsen area, mica schists show inverse relationship, however

quartzarenite of the Rautgara Formation show positive relationship between Km

and Pj (Fig. 5.22 a). In the Pj vs. Km plot, there is a positive relationship in

micaceous quartzite (Saryu Formation) that is similar to other domain while mica-

bearing quartzarenite (Rautgara Formation) do not show any such relationship

(Fig. 5.23 a).

In the both regions of NW terminal of the NAT, T vs. Pj plots represent

that the mylonitized granite gneiss and mica schist have oblate AMS ellipsoids

(Gairsen region) and micaceous quartzite and quartzarenite have AMS ellipsoid

that vary from oblate to prolate (Dewalikhal region) (Figs. 5.22 c, d and 5.23 c, d).

5.4 RF/Φ AND FLINN PLOTS TECHNIQUE

Rf/φ plots are prepared, by using the data obtained through measuring the

axial ratios (Rf) and angle (φ) between the long axis and principal extension

direction, of two dimensional sections (i.e. XZ, YZ) (Figs. 5.24, 5.25, 5.26 and

5.27). In three dimensional strain studies, only two sections are required to

determine the three principal strain ratios (Dunnet, 1969; Ramsay and Huber,

1983). For three dimension value X/Y ratio is obtained from other two ratios i.e.

X/Z and Y/Z. Flinn (1962, 1978) plots are prepared by taking the axial ratio X/Y

and Y/Z in order to find shape anisotropy in strain ellipsoid across the NAT (Fig.

5.28). Rock units of the area are polymineralic and individual mineral grain

behaves differently under the stress, and strain accumulation is variable at grain

level. So it is tough to find out that which grains are giving accurate finite strain

data, however after some limitation it is useful to determine the average finite

strain in a particular rock unit.

5.4.1 RESULTS

In order to compare the AMS strain fabric only three but significant samples

of protomylonite to ultramylonite (especially of mylonitised granitic gneiss) from

each sector, are analyzed by this method (Rf/φ), and representative plots are

shown (Figs. 5.24, 5.25, 5.26 and 5.27). The major objective was to compute the

strain variation across the NAT plane with this method and compare with the

AMS stain data.

The Harmonic mean (H) (Lisle, 1977) of ‘RS’ values thus obtain by this

method, gives more accurate strain values then geometric mean and arithmetic

mean, checked by Srivastava (2004).

The Strain ellipsoid ratios (X > Y > Z) measured from the NASZ are shown

below:

Magnetic fabrics can reflect the shearing, folding and later faulting impacts in the

rocks (Hallwood et al., 1992; Tarling and Hrouda, 1993; Nakamura and

Nagahama, 2001; Mamtani and Sengupta, 2010). Petrography and magnetic

mineralogy (high temperature demagnetization curves) reveals that the

anisotropy is controlled mostly by paramagnetic minerals and also yielded

negligible contribution of ferromagnetic minerals. The study area is traversed by

two regional transverse faults (NNW-SSE oriented Rantoli and Chaukhutiya

faults) and numbers of subsidiary faults (relatively small scale and variably

oriented). Through magnetic fabric study their tectonic impacts on the

surrounding rocks can be easily observed. Sub-vertical to vertical magnetic

foliation planes with their variable orientations represent the superimposition of

later developed fabrics due to continuous horizontal compressional forces.

Parallel to sub-parallel magnetic foliation planes to the transverse faults with

steep dip and horizontal to gently plunging magnetic lineations, represent the

effect of the strike slip movement of NNW-SSE oriented Rantoli and Chaukhutiya

faults along the NAT. Magnetic foliations remain parallel to the field foliations

along with steep magnetic lineation at the terminal part of the transverse fault,

also proves rotational movement along the faults. In the Central part of

transverse faults the variation in attitudes of magnetic foliation and field foliation

manifests high impact of the transverse faults and their subsidiary faults, contrary

to this in the terminal parts of the transverse faults the parallelism of magnetic

foliation with field foliation is noted. This indicates that the impact of faulting is

negligible in the terminal parts. Parallelism of magnetic foliation planes with

subsidiary faults also reflecting their tectonic impact on the magnetic fabric of the

nearby rock units. Whereas their parallelism with the NAT trend show thrusting

effect on the magnetic fabric of the rock units near the NAT.

The clusters of magnetic axes (K1, K2 and K3) are well defined in the rocks

of the Saryu Formation as well as in the highly sheared micaceous quartzarenites

of the Rautgara Formation (Gh16, S4, S8, D37, J20, G30, D8, D25, C61, C64, and C100),

as shown by stereoplots, whereas less deformed quartzarenite rock samples

away from the NAT have almost randomly oriented axes (samples Gh10, Gh5, D5,

C81 and C65), e.g. mixed maximum, intermediate and minimum axes and shows

no significant results in fabric study.

Schists are showing positive as well as negative relation between Pj and

Km. Positive relation is due to the growth of very fine grain iron oxides and

negative relation is due to alteration of paramagnetic minerals as strain

increases, which is verified by the petrography study. Granitic gneiss and proto-

mylonite to mylonite in the study area, are consistently showing negative relation

between Pj and Km due to the decreasing the size of the paramagnetic minerals

on increasing the strain near the thrust plane. High Km value of ultramylonitized

granite is a consequence of the presence of ferromagnetic minerals (pyrrhotite,

size < 0.1mm). High Pj value at the NAT plane is due to the localization of high

strain in the rocks of the contact. Pj values across the NAT represent the

increasing amount of degree of anisotropy as well as increasing strain towards

the NAT plane.

Rf /φ plots are giving high Rs values, obtained in the ultramylonites rock

due to the presence of highly stretched and elongated grains of quartz (quartz

ribbons) and feldspars at the vicinity of the NAT, and low values are from a

distant area from the NAT in the shear zone. it represent high strain in the central

part of the NASZ.

Highly fractured and sheared rocks in the fault zones show distinct

magnetic foliations, which are parallel or sub-parallel to the fault plane. Their

parallel orientations are due to the development of fractures parallel to the fault

zone and growth of very fine grain iron oxides along the microscopic fractures,

which have changed the magnetic properties drastically. These results of

fractured rocks are significant in finding out the effects of the main transverse

faults as well as of the small scale subsidiary faults (Nakamura and Nagahama,

2001).

The plots of magnetic parameters (T vs. Pj) show dominating oblate

magnetic ellipsoids in the central part of the transverse faults, and prolate to

oblate magnetic ellipsoids in terminals of the transverse faults and along the

NAT. In comparison to AMS fabric the Flinn plot of axial ratio studied at

microscopic level also show the similar results. Therefore it is inferred that

deformation was mostly of flattening in the central part and constrictional in

terminal parts of the transverse faults. Whole study along the NASZ represents

the dominating oblate shape magnetic ellipsoid in the transverse faults area is the

cause of flattening strain, whereas prolate to oblate shape in other parts of the

NASZ is due to constrictional to flattening strain. In addition to this Rf /φ plot

represents high strain value at the contact of NAT, which decreases away from

the NAT plane, whereas φ angle decreases towards the NAT contact or at the

center of the NASZ.

5.6 CONCLUSION

Magnetic fabric studies along the NASZ and associated transverse faults

reveal the finite-strain in ductile to brittle fields of deformation. The steep

magnetic foliations are interpreted to be on account of regional compression.

Strike of the magnetic foliations and plunge direction of magnetic lineations are

parallel/ sub-parallel to the NAT trace but where the transverse faults are

encountered they become parallel to sub-parallel to these faults. AMS results

revealed a strong strike-slip movement with rotational component especially

along the Rantoli and Chaukhutiya faults. Detail study along the transverse faults

also explains that they are more active in the Central part, whereas there is a little

effect in terminal parts. However near the NAT trace in the Pancheshwar-Seri

and Seraghat-Dwarahat sectors, AMS study and classical strain study (Rf / φ)

revealed the dominating effect of thrusting.

Km value decreases and anisotropy increases in the magnetic fabric of the

granitic gneiss and proto-mylonite to mylonite as moving towards the NAT

contact and proved the high strain near the thrust plane. High susceptibility in

ultramylonites indicates the presence of the pyrrhotite ferromagnetic minerals

within the lattice of paramagnetic minerals. Similarly RS values obtained in Rf/ φ

strain analysis are showing increasing strain value toward the NAT plane within

NASZ.

Dominating oblate magnetic ellipsoids indicate that strain was dominantly

flattening type along the transverse faults, and prolate to oblate magnetic and

micro-fabric strain ellipsoids along the NAT imply constrictional as well as

flattening strain and thrusting effects.
