Scientific paper

X-ray analysis of limestones from the Lesser Himalyan and Vindhyan systems showed the presence of calcite and dolomite. The O 18 / O 16 and C 13 / C 12 ratios of the calcite and dolomite fractions showed that dolomite is in general enriched in C 13 and depleted in O 18 contents with respect to calcite. The negative values of the oxygen isotope fractionation factor suggest that the two fractions were not formed under isotopic equilibrium conditions.
