Vindhyan Rocks Stratigraphic Sequence Determination

The question requires identifying the correct chronological order of specific Vindhyan rock groups, from the oldest to the youngest.

Vindhyan Rock Groups Overview

The Vindhyan Supergroup represents a major Proterozoic sedimentary basin in India. The relevant groups mentioned are:

  • A: Rewa Group
  • B: Semri Group
  • C: Bhander Group
  • D: Kaimur Group

Stratigraphic Ordering

The established stratigraphic sequence for these upper parts of the Vindhyan Supergroup, from oldest to youngest, is:

  1. Semri Group (Oldest)
  2. Kaimur Group
  3. Rewa Group
  4. Bhander Group (Youngest)

Mapping Groups to Sequence

Matching the groups to their corresponding letters:

  • Semri Group = B
  • Kaimur Group = D
  • Rewa Group = A
  • Bhander Group = C

Final Stratigraphic Sequence

Therefore, the sequence of Vindhyan rocks from older to younger is represented by the letters B, D, A, C.
