英文摘要 | The Greater India Proterozoic Fold Belt (GIPFOB) is a curved highly tectonized zone dominated by Early Paleoproterozoic to Early Neoproterozoic magmatic and metamorphic rocks extending from NW India (Aravalli Delhi Fold Belt, ADFB) through central India (the Satpura Mobile Belt, SMB) to eastern India (the Chottanagpur Gneiss Complex, CGC). The continuity of the crustal domains within GIPFOB is obscured by the Gondwana Formation, the Mesozoic Deccan basalts, the intertrappean Bagh Beds and the infratrappean Lameta Formations, and younger alluvium. In supercontinent reconstructions the GIPFOB is speculated to be continuous with Proterozoic mobile belts in Western Australia and the Trans North China Orogen. The NNE-striking western arm (ADFB) of the GIPFOB is flanked by the North India Block (NIB) in the east and the Marwar Craton in the west, whereas the E-striking southern arm (CGC-SMB) is sandwiched between the South India Block (SIB) and the NIB. In the Godhra-Chhota Udepur sector (west-central India) the two arms converge. We synthesize and compare existing data on mesoscale structures, U-Pb (zircon) and monazite chemical ages, and magmatic and metamorphic histories in the Precambrian crystalline rocks in the three crustal blocks to constrain the accretion dynamics in the GIPFOB with an emphasis on the origin of the curvature in the Godhra-Chhota Udepur sector. The CGC and the central and southern domains of the SMB share considerable homogeneity in chronology and regional structures. In the CGC, the early, N-striking steep-dipping tectonic fabrics in ~1.6 Ga anatectic gneisses with ~1.45 Ga and 1.05–0.9 Ga granitoids are modified into a carapace of shallowly-dipping tectonic mélange of recumbently folded basement gneisses and granitoid mylonites thurst over by allochthonous supracrustal rocks at ~0.95 Ga. The central and southern domains within SMB also exhibit the shallowly-dipping foliations and the emplacement of 1.05–0.9 Ga granitoids. The unmodified basement and the overlying tectonic mélange in the CGC-SMB are traversed by 1.0–0.9 Ga E-striking steep-dipping sinistral (dominant) and dextral (uncommon) shear zones that accommodated the Early Neoproterozoic transpressive deformation induced by the NIB-SIB oblique collision. The mesoscale structures in the rocks of the Godhra-Chhota Udepur sector intruded by Early Neoproterozoic granitoids and followed by oblique collision are similar to CGC-SMB. In the ADFB, by contrast, the basement rocks are older (Archean to Early Paleoproterozoic), high-grade metamorphism and felsic magmatism are older (1.8–1.7 Ga), the expansive ~1.45 Ga granitoids are absent, nappe structures are locally present, and expansive domains of the shallowly-dipping foliations are lacking. Overall, the tectonic evolution of the ADFB is incoherent with those in CGC-SMB and the GC sector. We suggest that the structures in the N/NNE-striking western accretion arm terminate against the E-striking southern arm. The Early Neoproterozoic (1.0−0.9 Ga) integration of the crustal domains within the GIPFOB resulted due to broadly contemporaneous convergence of the NIB, the SIB and the Marwar Craton (?) during the Rodinia supercontinent assembly, but the accretion along the southern arm post-dated the accretion in the western arm.
