Researchers are using luminescence dating to date samples of the mineral jarosite from Kachchh, Gujarat. Due to its geological similarities, this mineral is considered a good Martian analogue.

Researchers at the Institute of Seismological Research, Gandhinagar M. S. University of Baroda, MG Science Institute, Ahmedabad and ETH Zurich, Switzerland, have found evidence of a fourth tsunami event on the coast of Kachchh in western India, which happened about a thousand year ago and was previously undocumented. 

For the first time ever scientists discover the skeleton of the ancient marine reptile, Ichthyosaur, in the Kachchh basin of Gujarat.
