Tamil Nadu is a state in southern India. The western, southern and the north-western parts are hilly and rich in vegetation. Tamil Nadu is the only state in India which has both the Western Ghat and the Eastern Ghat mountain ranges which both meet at the Nilgiri Hills. The Western Ghats dominate the entire western border with Kerala State, effectively blocking much of the rain bearing clouds of the South West Monsoon from entering the state. The eastern parts are fertile coastal plains. The northern parts are a mix of hills and plains. The central and the south-central regions are arid plains.
Gem mineralisation in the Karur-Kangayam Belt within Tamil Nadu includes different varieties of corundum (ruby and sapphire), cordierite (iolite), feldspar (moonstones and sunstone of various hues), beryl (aquamarine and emerald), chrysoberyl (alexandrite), kornerupine, topaz, spinel, crystal quartz and amethyst, among others.

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Neochaotian to Cambrian : ~4600 Ma to 541 Âą 1.0 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
