The Indian Platform, also known as the Indian Shield or the Peninsular Shield, is a stable geological region that forms the core of the Indian subcontinent. It has a complex geological history that spans billions of years. Here's an overview of the evolution of the Indian Platform: 1. Archean Eon (4 billion to 2.5 billion years ago): The earliest geological history of the Indian Platform dates back to the Archean Eon, during which some of the oldest rocks on Earth were formed. The Dharwar Craton, located in the southern part of the Indian Platform, is one of the prime examples of Archeanage geological formations in India. 2. Proterozoic Eon (2.5 billion to 541 million years ago): During the Proterozoic Eon, the Indian Platform witnessed significant geological events. Sedimentary basins formed, leading to the accumulation of thick sequences of sedimentary rocks. The Vindhyan Supergroup, a prominent sedimentary rock formation, was deposited during this time. 3. Ro...
