Abstract

The E-W strike-slip brittle faults are reported from the margin of South East Deccan Volcanic Province (SEDVP) near Kinwat where we detail faulting, folding and boudinaging from the Adampur-Bhaisa profile along the SEDVP margin further SW of the Kinwat region. The present study focusses deformations in the basement granite from the SEDVP around Degloor/Diglur. The NE trending strike-slip faults, W-dipping steep normal faults, and W verging thrusts are documented in this study in the granitic rocks. NE trending strike-slip tectonics dominates the study area, which does not corroborate with ~E trending Western Boundary East Dharwar Craton Strike-Slip Zone (WBEDCSZ). The concentrated strike-slip deformation at Degloor lies between (micro)seismically active Killari-Nanded-Kaddam regions. The present study suggests that the stretch of >75 km, from Degloor to Bhaisa, along the SEDVP margin within the EDC, is a tectonic zone and is designated as Western Boundary East Dharwar Craton Deformed Zone (WBEDCDZ). Difference in trends of stress axes (e.g., the least principal stress axis σ₃ ranging 20–83°N) deciphered mainly from conjugate joints shows local-scale heterogeneity in the stress regime.
