Geochemistry of a paleosol horizon at the base of the Sausar Group, central India: Implications on atmospheric conditions at the Archean–Paleoproterozoic boundary
A paleosol horizon is described from the contact of the Sausar Group (∼2400 Ma) and its basement (Tirodi Gneiss; >2500 Ma) in Central India. Physical evidence of pedogenesis is marked by the development of stress corrosion cracks, soil peds, corestone weathering and nodular rocks. XRD and SEM-EDX...
