Associated gemstones were also investigated. Besides the above, Uranium and Thorium investigations were undertaken and the results were evaluated. Submission of Technical reports.

In the pursuit of work perfection and excellence developed, a team of dedicated scientists to the National cause of in-depth scientific studies made the breakthrough. This study and the pursuit were awarded with a Rare Doctorate Award D.Sc. Degree from the University of Mysore.

Have done research work in the Mesozoic sediments in the northwestern region of India for a period of over ten years and collected water, soil and rock samples in the sedimentary rocks of Sand stone and shales. The analytical results of both physical and chemical were critically evaluated and interpreted exhaustively by statistical methods. The structural and lithological data were studied keeping in mind the regional stratigraphy followed by pale-current analysis establishing the provenance from which all the sediments had been transported and deposited in the established sedimentary basins. This is very useful for exploration of petroleum. A new concept for a model in the critically interesting geological horizon has been discovered here.
