摘要
Five Cretaceous alkaline-carbonatite igneous complexes are reported from the Assam-Meghalaya Plateau. These alkaline intrusions have been interpreted to be coeval and associated with the 117-105 Ma Rajmahal-Sylhet flood basalt province. With the existing age information it is possible that this alkaline magmatism may be a late magmatic stage of the Rajmahal-Sylhet large igneous province. Therefore, it is essential to determine high-precision ages for these alkaline complexes in order to understand the detailed temporal evolution and genesis of this basaltic and alkaline magmatism. Out of five igneous complexes, Sung Valley, Swangkre and Samchampi have been dated, but the emplacement ages of the other two, i.e. Jasra and Barpung, are poorly constrained. The present communication reports a new, high-precision U-Pb zircon/baddeleyite age for a differentiated portion of gabbro phase of the Jasra igneous complex.
