Geology
The entire Nashik district is underlain by the basaltic lava flows. These flows are normally horizontally disposed over a wide stretch and give rise to table land type of topography also known a plateau. These flows occur in layered sequences and represented by massive unit at the bottom and vesicular unit at the top of the flow.The shallow alluvial formation of recent age also occurs as narrow stretch along the banks of Godavari Rivers.The soils are the weathering products of Basalt and have various shades from gray to black, red and pink color.
