Randive & Meshram state that: "Carbonatites are localized along a deep seated NW-SE fault system in the Eastern Ghats mobile belt. Genetically associated rocks include pyroxenite and syenite. Intense phlogopitization and presence of apatite-magnetite veins, high REE, presence of bastnaesite are considered favorable evidences; whereas presence of anorthite, fassite, scapolite and spinel were considered contra-indicators."
