Abstract

The knowledge of seismic, elastic and physical properties of the deep-seated rocks, like density, porosity, P- and S-wave velocities, elastic modulii and seismic wave attenuation, is extremely important to study various geophysical and geodynamical problems. Since major part of the Earth’s continental crust, remains inaccessible to direct observations, the laboratory measurement of such properties becomes essential, which are used to model the crustal composition, rheological behaviour and physical and thermal state of the crust and the underlying mantle. This is specially true for the geodynamically active areas, like Deccan Volcanic Province, which is concealed below 1 to 3 km thick suite of basaltic lavas. This volcanic terrain is also experiencing high level of intraplate seismic activity. Deep scientific drillings in two such prominent seismic zones, provided unique opportunity to study such properties. Results obtained on Deccan volcanic and basement cores from 617 m deep Killari borehole, have given some very interesting clues to geological evolution of this terrain.
