Abstract
We report presence of five physically distinct and chemically dissimilar ba saltic lava flows in the Kosamghat, the epicentral region of the Jabalpur e arthquake. The major shift (similar to 150 m) in the stratigraphic height o f the fifth lava flow at the western flank of the Nagapahar range suggests the presence of a NE-SW trending post-Deccan normal fault in the region.
