Abstract: | Geohistory diagrams have been constructed for three representative sites in the Bombay High region, Offshore West-Coast India. The model curve for 60% lithospheric injection matches the intitial part of a thermo-tectonic curve for one of the sites, where a complete Tertiary sequence is developed. The study suggests that the four Paleogene unconformities, recognised in this region, were caused by eustatic falls. A distinct phase of active subsidence occurred during the late Middle — Late Miocene, probably due to more active spreading at the Mid-Indian Ocean Ridge. |
