  • Geology of the Southern Gandghar Range and Kherimar Hills, Northern Pakistan
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Michael D. Hylland for the degree of Master of Science in Geology presented on May 3. 1990 Title: Geology of the Southern Gandghar Range and Kherimar Hills. Northern Pakistan Abstract approved: RobeS. Yeats The Gandghar Range and Kherimar Hills, located in the Hill Ranges of northern Pakistan, contain rocks that are transitional between unmetarnorphosed foreland-basin strata to the south and high-grade metamorphic and plutonic rocks to the north. The southern Gandghar Range is composed of a succession of marine strata of probable Proterozoic age, consisting of a thick basal argillaceous sequence (Manki Formation) overlain by algal limestone and shale (Shahkot, Utch Khattak, and Shekhai formations). These strata are intruded by diabase dikes and sills that may correlate with the Panjal Volcanics. Southern Gandghar Range strata occur in two structural blocks juxtaposed along the Baghdarra fault. The hanging wall consists entirely of isoclinally-folded Manki Formation, whereas the footwall consists of the complete Manki-Shekhai succession which has been deformed into tight, northeast-plunging, generally southeast (foreland) verging disharmonic folds. Phyllite near the Baghdarra fault displays kink bands, a poorly-developed S-C fabric, and asymmetric deformation of foliation around garnet porphyroblasts. These features are consistent with conditions of dextral shear, indicating reverse-slip displacement along the fault. South of the Gandghar Range, the Panjal fault brings the Gandghar Range succession over the Kherimar Hills succession, which is composed of a basal Precambrian arenaceous sequence (Hazara Formation) unconformably overlain by Jurassic limestone (Samana Suk Formation) which in turn is unconformably overlain by Paleogene marine strata (Lockhart Limestone and Patala Formation).

A total of 11231 soil samples from six tehsils of Attock district were collected during five years (2012-17). Samples were analyzed for different parameters like pH, EC (1:10), texture, organic matter, Olsen Phosphorus and NH4-acetate extractable Potassium. As regards pH, 98% samples ranged between 7.5-8.5 while 97% samples were normal with respect to salinity/sodicity (ECe<4 dSm-1 and SAR<15). Similarly 22% samples were light and 78% were medium in texture. Soils (96% ) were poor in organic matter (<0.86%) while 99% had available phosphorus <7 mg kg-1. 1362 soil samples were also analyzed for potassium showing poor in 31% samples (<80 mg kg-1 ) while 69% samples lie in satisfactory to adequate range (81-180 mg kg-1). Depending upon the soil analysis, farmers were guided for fertilizer recommendations according to climate suitability, crop/orchard/vegetable and water/rainfall conditions as being implemented throughout the rain fed conditions of the Punjab by the Directorate of Soil Fertility, Thokar Niaz Beg, Lahore.

  • Assessment of Irrigation Water Quality in District Attock, Pakistan
    Pak. j. sci. ind. res. Ser. B: biol. sci. 2015 58 (1) 47-53 Assessment of Irrigation Water Quality in District Attock, Pakistan Muhammad Yunasa*, Sarfraz Ahmada, Bashir Ahmada, Obaid ur Rehmanb and Sher Afzala aSoil and Water Testing Laboratory, Attock, Pakistan bSoil and Water Conservation Research Station, Fatehjang, Attock, Pakistan (received March 25, 2014; revised September 1, 2014; accepted November 13, 2014) Abstract. Water samples (total 277) were collected during previous three years (2008-09 to 2010-11) from all tehsils of Attock district, Pakistan, used for irrigation purpose. Regarding sources of irrigation, 122 samples were collected from bores (turbine operated), 97 from wells, 19 from nullahs and 39 from dams. The analysis data showed that 120 samples (43%) were fit, 35 samples (13%) were marginally fit, while 122 samples (44%) were unfit. As regards minimum and maximum range, it varied in EC from 0.05 to 8.1 dS/m, calcium plus magnesium from 0.6 to 70 meq/L, sodium from zero to 40.6 meq/L, carbonates from zero to 0.04 meq/L, bicarbonates from 0.5 to 15 meq/L, chlorides from 0.2 to 70 meq/L, sodium adsorption ratio from zero to 49.85 and residual sodium carbonate from zero to 13 meq/L. Recommendations for wise and judicious use of marginally fit to unfit irrigation water were imparted to the farmers for raising different arable, fruit and vegetable crops. Keywords: irrigation water, cations, anions, dissolved salts Introduction growth, poor aesthetic quality of crop and in some cases Crop growing is dependent on an adequate water supply can result in the gradual death of plants.
