Light minerals of beach sediments from Southern Tamilnadu, south east coast of India

Light minerals of beach sediments from Southern Tamilnadu, south east coast of India

A brief investigation of light minerals along the beaches between Valinokkam and Tuticorin has been carried out for the first time along the Southern Tamilnadu coast in order to discover the provenance of the sediments. The study spotlights a wide variation in light mineralogy along the three zones...
