Date Issued 1992 (iso8601)
Abstract Petrographically, the carbonate rocks of Saurashtra are of four major types, viz. foraminiferal wackestone, molluscan wackestone, foraminiferal packstone and algal foraminiferal packstone. Geochemical and stable-isotope analysis of these rocks indicates low strontium, high manganese and depletion in delta-O-18. We suggest that these are the effect of diagenetic alteration.
