Ferrosilite diorite.
Pallavaram (originally Pallava Puram) is a southern suburb of Chennai, India. It lies in the district of Chengalpattu, situated within the Chennai Metropolitan Area, Tamil Nadu state.
Formerly a Municipality under Alandur taluk, it was bifurcated in August 2015 to form a new taluk. In November 2021, the town was merged with Tambaram City Municipal Corporation. The neighbourhood is known for its cantonment and bustling residential colonies and is served by Pallavaram railway station of the Chennai Suburban Railway Network.
Pallavaram has a long history and has been inhabited since the Paleolithic Age. The town derives its name from the Pallava settlement of Pallavapuram of which it used to form a part. The cantonment and aerodrome were established during British rule. The British also carried out charnockite mining activities on Pallavaram Hill.
