Document Abstract
The Neo-Archean Sonakhan Greenstone Belt (SGB) is located in the north-eastern fringes of the Bastar craton in Central India and is composed ofgreenschist to amphibolite fades meta-volcanic rocks and meta-sedimentary sequences. The felsic meta-volcanic rocks from SGB exhibit steep REE pattern (La/Yb = 66.86). The trace element geochemistry indicates negative Nb and Ti anomalies in the multi-element spider diagrams suggesting subduction related origin for this volcanic suite
