Dear Friends of Geology and science , Wish you all a very happy and prosparous
new year 2006

Geology expedition of Kutch and RANN of the KUTCH - Main land Kutch and its main
Rivers Khari Pur river basins.

Fossil also has lifespan, as it takes time to form, it also get destroyed as
time pass, weather and nature destroys them as time goes on and so after 500
-600 million years later fossils are difficult to trace or identify them. So if
we do not find any fossils beyond the time 1bn years old does not mean that
there was no life. Life was there too and may be fossilised later and eventually
may have destroyed those fossilised evidences as time ticks on.

Kutch is believed to be such main land which was part of Original Gondwana land
(JUMBU DWIP). and so as fossils of the area does suggest that. but that goes
back only to the certain period of the time limit. But scientist and Vedas do
agree that fife was existing well before that. (Both views are in favour of life
origin was started before 2bn years back). so where are those evidences and
fossils? naturally nature has power to regenerate and destroy itself.

South of Kutch (Mandvi rural - Mundra and rural area ):- Southern part of the
Kutch was lifted after the lift up of the Khatrod range and so is younger than
the Main land kutch and so holds clues of Jurassic time and boundary period of
the Jurassic/cretaceous time. Along with Anjar and its lake - and surrounding
hold clues Jurassic time Dinosaurs. South of Khatrod range marine fossils, wood
fossils and vegetative fossils suggesting whole history of lift of the land from
the bottom of the sea and formation of the jungles in the area in the cretaceous
time and also Jurassic time bone fossils gives whole time scale of the formation
of land, forest and Jurassic animal living in the area in that time scale.

Lanki Hills Range and Khatrol kills has not only Marine finger prints of the
formation of the land but also vegetative and Forest finger prints there after
and later Jurassic period animals. Southern costal region and its hill area has
rich treasure for Jurassic animals and egg fossils. Khatrol hill range has not
only marine finger prints but also rare form of the soft body fossils of marine
animals (While formation of fossils - animal soft body gets decayed and so
fossil formation happens only for shells of the body or bones and eggs shells -
but in rare cases in favourable situations only Soft body fossils can be formed
) long back to Pre Jurassic and up to 220mn yeras back, and there after
cretaceous fossils. so its suggestive that the seismic changes has happens
frequently and periodically and transformation process is still active.





ADD on formation of the kutch southern land rivers & Marine fossils - Wood
Fossils and Jurassic animal bones and eggs fossils. Roha Hills area. coastal
hill range findings. Plants, Animals, Vertebrates/invertebrates, Belemnites,
Ammonites, Corals, urchins, starfish, brittle stars, mammals, and turtles.

Full detailed report can be requested by Email reply with the area of the
required area name.
