Q) Write a short note on :- Formation of Deccan Pleatue
Answers
Answer:
The Deccan Plateau is largely made up of both igneous and metamorphic rocks. Volcanic activity in the past caused molten rock from inside the Earth to flow out through cracks in the lithosphere. This lava then spreads out onto the Earth's surface as lava sheets (made up of igneous rocks) to form the plateau. Heat and pressure then transformed many of these igneous rocks into metamorphic rocks. All these rocks have given us a rich variety of mineral wealth that has helped a number of industries to develop.
