Abstract

The Precambrian Delhi group of rocks in north-eastern Rajasthan is associated with a few granite bodies. Among these the Dadikar granite near Alwar city is intrusive into the Delhi metasediments. Both the granite and the Delhi rocks are deformed and recrystallised under the common plan. The Dadikar granite had been emplaced within an overall domal structural framework of the Delhi rocks. Any radiogenic age determination of this granite must be interpreted in the light of the field relationships between the granite and country rock.
