The 1.9 Ga Gwalior Group represents one of the major Paleoproterozoic depositional basin of Bundelkhand craton and is comprised of ∼1 km thick unmetamorphosed and undeformed sedimentary succession, with basal clastic sequence of sandstone-shale association (Par Formation) and an upper chemogenic BIF...
