Albite and other authigenic minerals in limestone from Bengal
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 March 2018
Extract
In that part of the Gangpur State immediately to the north of the Bengal-Nagpur Railway, between Biara and Garpos, lies a tract of dolomite- and limestone-bearing country which has been referred, on lithological grounds, to the Cuddapah (? Algoukian or Palaeozoic) formation. From this area, all the dolomite and most of the limestone requirements of the Bengal iron and steel industry are at present derived, and the close proximity of the enormous haematite ore reserves of Singhbhum indicates a still greater economic importance for these materials in the future.
