Abstract
Results of a feasibility study on luminescence dating of neotectonic events as recorded in fault gouges and buried soils formed on landslide debris are reported. It is suggested that clay mineralogical data on illite and chlorite can provide a reasonable estimate on the thermal excursion (and hence on resetting of the luminescence clock) during faulting. The thermoluminescence ages are consistent with the available radiocarbon ages and have been used to infer that Naini Lake was formed at ca. 40-50 ka.
