The Permian-Triassic mass extinction is among the five major natural disasters that destroyed more than 90% of the life on Earth. These events have been recorded in the geological strata all over the world. The Guryul Ravine (GR) section of Kashmir Himalayas has recorded the lithological, faunal, and floral changes that occurred at the transition of Permian-Triassic boundary (PTB) at the contact of Permian Zewan Formation and the overlying early Triassic Khunamuh Formation. Permian-Triassic boundary of Kashmir is the best and famous example of siliciclastic-dominated boundary successions of the world. The main aim of this project is to evaluate the paleoclimate and paleo-weathering conditions that existed during the Permian-Triassic times through geochemical and mineralogical studies; to determine paleoredox conditions that existed during the deposition of P-T section exposed at the Guryul Ravine section; to evaluate tectonic setting of the Permian-Triassic deposition of sedimentary sequences of the Kashmir valley, North India; and to correlate the data obtained with existing data of the major Permian-Triassic sections of the world to get a comprehensive idea about the reconstruction of Gondwana lands and evolution of northern Indian margin.

The main aim of the present research project is to understand the role of chemical and biological processes in the genesis of phosphorites. Formation, growth and development of different phosphate bearing minerals in phosphorites and associated rocks will be assessed by using varied techniques like XRD, SEM and geochemical analysis. Stable isotopes (C and O) geochemistry along with high precision REE data will be applied to understand the depositional environment of phosphorite deposits.
