Dec 31st '07 long weekend, planned for tour to death valley, loss(los)Vegas and Grand Canyon.

Anyway, Grand Canyon is amazing indeed.
And did you know, there are many points on the Grand Canyon that are named "Vishnu Schist (the lowest strata of the canyon almost 1.5 billion years old)", "Brahma temple", "Shiva temple", "Rama Shrine" etc. Wonder how they got those names??

Googled and here's d info :

"Carved by nature devas into the Canyon's breathtaking buttes were "Shiva," "Vishnu" and "Brahma" temples, along with a "Vishnu Schist" and a "Hindu Amphitheatre." Going to the Canyon is a pilgrimage across immense stretches of time and rapturous landscape unlike any other on the planet. It's a geological phenomenon that reduces your physical body importance to zero while stretching your psychic awareness to God-like infinity. Every Hindu should pilgrimage to this fantastic nature temple. And indeed many do."

Sub:- What is in there in the Vishnu Schist mountain of Grand canyon of COLORADO river

Most visitors to the Grand Canyon and Colorado river just visit the place as tourist to enjoy the beauty of the river valley. But geologist need to go to the bottom of the valley of the river Colorado grand canyon. One Need to go to Bottom of the grand canyon rafting the river Colorado. so the can really visualise the all layers of the Grand canyon and most interesting is it's base layer caaled Vishnu Schist MOUNTAIN LAYER.

Why it is Called VISHNU Schist mountain layer? name is given by original tribes of the Red Indians, original GENETICALLY decedents of Asian origin. though they went there about 20,000 years ago by land when north Atlantic was frozen. They believe this place of their worshiping god.

The VISHNU Mountain is geologically about 1.7 to 1.8 Bn years (Marine BACTERIAL STROMATOLITES developed before this time 1.99 Bn years in the SEA when land was the under water dating back to this time 1.99Bn years) old and was 9km height even higher than everest. same as PURANs suggest the timing of the "LAND MASS COME OUT OF THE SEA during VARAH AVATAR" first incarnation was MATSHYA - Fish in the SEA (geologically and methologically according the calculation in PURAN as well, the oldest vertebrate on the Earth) and then was the VARAH Incarnation of The LORD VISHNU which hooked out the LAND MASS from the sea by TOOTH tusk.

Now lets check with calculative PURAN Calender to compare the geology. though will be difficult to calculate without good maths.

Though it was a mountain but now is at the bottom layer of all sediment layers of the valley! How that might have happened? a documentary will be help full to understand this process of millions of years in just 1hour. The recorded Documentary is in reference library of the Geological section 16 of the KUTCH SCIENCE foundation LIBRARY.

The major geologic exposures in the Grand Canyon range in age from the 2 billion year old Vishnu Schist at the bottom of the Inner Gorge to the 230 million year old Kaibab Limestone on the Rim. Interestingly, there is a gap of about one billion years between the stratum that is about 500 million years old and the lower level, which is about 1.5 billion years old. That indicates a period of erosion between two periods of deposition.

Vishnu Schist
According to our PURANS

Where Vishnu is His third VARAH incarnation when earth came out of sea water.
Schist - means in SANSKRIT - remnant (remainder)
Vishnu schist means the remnant of the first land which came out of the sea water during the Vishnu’s third VARAH incarnation

CALCULATION match with geological time scale
SHRUSTI START(ARAMBHA) TIME as PURANs say
47400 Divya Vrash (cosmic years) x 360 (ratio of cosmic and human earth years) = 1.71E+07
17064000 + TIL PRESENT LAST SATYAYUGA =1.95E+09
=1953720000 +PASSED TRETAYUGA 1296000+Dwapar Yuga 864000+ KALI years 5119=19900131… = 1.99Bn years

According to The Science Radio Isotope Dating

RADIOISOTOPE DATING OF THE GRAND CANYON ROCKS:

Deep inside the Inner Gorge of Grand Canyon, northern Arizona, are the crystalline basements rocks that probably date back even to the Creation Week itself. Clearly visible in the canyon walls are the light-colored granites, such as the Zoroaster Granite, which are stark against the darker, folded strata of the Vishnu Schist and the other metamorphic rock units of the Granite Gorge Metamorphic Suite1 (see lowest purple and green shading in diagram). These are former sedimentary and volcanic strata that have been transformed by heat and pressure, possibly during the intense upheavals when the dry land was formed on Day 3 of Creation Week.2 Among these metamorphosed volcanic strata are amphibolites, belonging to the Brahma Schist. These were originally basalt lava flows several meters to tens of meters thick. In some outcrops pillow structures have been preserved, testimony to the basalt lavas having originally erupted and flowed under water onto the Creation Week ocean floor. Metamorphic rocks are not always easy to date using radioisotopes. Results obtained usually signify the “date” of the metamorphism, but they may also yield the



2) “age” of the original volcanic (or sedimentary) rock. The “age” In Grand Canyon, the “date” of metamorphism of the basalt lavas to form these Brahma amphibolites has been determined as 1690-1710 Ma (million years ago), based on U-Pb dating of minerals in the overlying Vishnu Schist and underlying Rama Schist that formed during the metamorphism.3,4 It is also claimed that the original basalt lavas were erupted between 1741 and 1750 Ma, based on U-Pb dating of “original” zircon grains in metamorphosed felsic (granitic) volcanic layers within the Brahma and Rama Schists.4,5

Results

The model K-Ar ages for each of the samples ranged from 405.1±10 Ma to 2574.2±73 Ma. Furthermore, the seven samples from the small amphibolite unit near Clear Creek, which should all be the same age because they belong to the same metamorphosed basalt lava flow, yielded K-Ar model ages ranging from 1060.4±28 Ma to 2574.2±73 Ma. This includes two samples only 0.84 meters apart that yielded K-Ar model ages of 1205.3±31 and 2574.2±73 Ma. The computer program Isoplot6 was used to plot isochrons and calculate isochron ages from the other radioisotope analyses. The best isochron plots, where all the variation from the line of best fit to the data incorporates all

the analytical errors, yielded an Rb-Sr isochron age of 1240±84 Ma, an Sm-Nd isochron age of 1655±40 Ma, and a Pb-Pb isochron age of 1883±53 Ma.


radioisotope dating methods yield completely different “ages” that cannot be reconciled—1240±84 Ma (Rb-Sr), 1655±40 Ma (Sm-Nd), and 1883±53 Ma (Pb-Pb)

The K-Ar model “ages” are so widely divergent from one another (ranging from 405.1±10 Ma to 2574.2±73 Ma), even from very closely spaced samples from the same outcrop of the same original lava flow, as to be useless for “dating” any event. These discordant results could easily be dismissed as an isolated aberration, perhaps due to the uncertain effects of metamorphism and any subsequent alteration, especially during erosion and weathering. However, they are confirmation of The radioisotope methods, long touted as irrefutably dating the earth’s rocks as countless millions of years old,
