In India, block mountains, also known as fault-block mountains, are formed by the uplift of landblocks between faults. Examples of block mountains in India include the Satpura and Vindhya ranges in the central-western region, and the Nilgiris. These mountains are characterized by their steep, rugged cliffs and relatively flat, uplifted areas.
Formation of Block Mountains:
Faulting:
Block mountains are formed when the Earth's crust is subjected to tensile and compressive forces, causing the crust to break into blocks.
Uplift:
The uplifted blocks between the faults create the mountains, while the down-dropped blocks form rift valleys.
Examples:
The Satpura and Vindhya ranges are examples of block mountains in India, formed due to faulting during the Proterozoic period.
