Bundelkhand Craton: Complete Guide to Geology, Structure & Formation | Archean Cratonic Studies
The Bundelkhand Craton is a 26,000 sq. km Archean cratonic block in central India, characterized by a triangular geometry with semi-circular sides. It is named after the 15th-century Bundelkhand kingdom. This geological formation contains tonalite-trondhjemite-granodiorite (TTG) gneisses dating from 3.55–2.5 Ga, Bundelkhand granite complexes, and distinctive supracrustal rock enclaves. The craton is bounded by the Son-Narmada lineament in the south, separated from the Aravalli craton by the Vindhyan basin in the west, and overlain by Indo-Gangetic alluvium in the north.
