How Structural Geology Shaped Slope Design in a Complex Iron Ore Mine

Jayeeta Dey, Avijit Bhunia, Sujit Roy - July 7, 2026

SRK recently completed a Pre-feasibility level geotechnical assessment for a hillside iron ore operation in Eastern India, where pit slope design was fundamentally controlled by the complex geological and structural setting of the deposit.

Migmatised Amphibolites of the Nellore Schist Belt, Southeastern India: Deformation-Driven Melt Segregation and Implications for Proterozoic Granitoid Crust Formation

Dr. Joyjit Dey, Saumya Singh, H. Hrushikesh, Sameer Ranjan, N. Prabhakar - June 29, 2026

This paper examines migmatised amphibolites in India's Nellore Schist Belt, using phase equilibria modelling, EBSD, and U-Pb geochronology to reveal how deformation-driven melt segregation produced TTG-like granitoids during Proterozoic crustal reworking.
