摘要

Ophiolites, which have been tectonically emplaced along continental margins and island arts, are significant to the understanding of mountain belt evolution. At the same time mapping of ophiolites in the hostile and inaccessible mountainous terrains of Himalaya has always posed a great challenge to geologists, The emphasis in the present study is on the mapping of the geological features especially the lithological inferences in the Nidar Ophiolitic Complex of the Indus Suture Zone of the Ladakh and Karakoram range of NW Himalaya using high resolution IRS-1C/1D satellite data and refinement of the existing geological maps. While the published geological maps show sequential distribution and occurrence of a number of litho-units, the satellite images have helped not only in delineating the lithological boundaries more precisely but also in demarcation of a number of subunits within the already mapped litho-units. The study shows that the outcrops of the dissimilar lithological units are better delineated on satellite data-based map and hence can be used to refine tbe existing map of the terrain.
