  • Preliminary Results of Lithofacies, Biostratigraphy and Depositional Setting Analysis of the Chorgali Formation, Salt Range, Potwar Basin, Northern Pakistan
    Preliminary results of lithofacies, biostratigraphy and depositional setting analysis of the Chorgali Formation, Salt Range, Potwar Basin, northern Pakistan Muhammad, T. Khan and Osman, Salad Hersi University of Regina, Department of Geology Summary The Chorgali Formation occurs in Kalla-Chitta area, Hazara basin, Kohat basin and Potwar basin in northern Pakistan and it is part of a very thick carbonate succession deposited in the Neo-Tethys Sea shelf. The formation conformably overlies early Eocene Margalla Hills Limestone and correlative Sakesar Limestone in the Hazara Basin and Potwar basins. The Chorgali Formation has an upper conformable boundary with late Eocene Kuldana Formation in the Hazara Basin and unconformably overlain by late Miocene Kamlial Formation in Potwar Basin. The Chorgali Formation is well exposed in the study area; five outcrop sections were studied. The formation has an average thickness of 30 m in the study area. Field and petrographic analyses of the formation led to the recognition of four lithofacies units (Lf1-Lf4). These lithofacies units are: i) Milliolid-bearing mudstone (Lf1), ii) Bioclastic wackestone (Lf2), iii) Bioclastic packstone (Lf3), iv) Bioclastic wackestone to packstone (Lf4) and Plantonic-bearing mudstone (Lf5). The sedimentary features, sedimentary textures and fossil associations of these lithofacies suggested that deposition took place in homoclinal carbonate ramp environment. In the study area, the formation deposited in a low to moderate energy, normal marine environment. The Lf1 and Lf2 represent inner ramp, Lf3 and Lf4 mid ramp and Lf5 represents outer ramp. Absence of intertidal and supratidal facies suggest a subtidal depositional environment. The formation contains several larger benthic foraminifera that are deemed to be good for age determination.

  • Ongoing Projects
    Ongoing Projects Tourism Department of Punjab is focused on developing various sites and the following projects are underway at the moment: 1. Development of Resort for Religious Tourism at Nankana Sahib Nankna Sahib is located about 80 kilometers south west of Lahore. The proposed project will be constructed to cater the needs of Sikh Yatrees/tourists from across the globe and the local pilgrimage. The project will have an information center, accommodation for pilgrimage/visitors and a restaurant. 2. Development of Bansara Gali Surface Parking into Eco-friendly Entertainment Park The Bansara Gali is located at a distance of 12km from Murree .The surface parking was constructed initially to reduce traffic congestion, pollution and to cater parking needs at Murree. The project has been handed over to TDCP in 2016 to develop the facility into an eco-friendly entertainment park. Upon completion the project will have an information center, amphitheater, BBQ courts, restaurant, souvenir shop, climbing wall, bonfire area, and archery. 3. Development of Resort at Charehan, Murree Charehan is located at 12km before Murree at its old route. The Charehan Forest Rest House was badly damaged during 2005 earthquake .The project has been handed over to TDCP in 2016 to develop Resort for promotion of tourism .The project will have accommodation facilities to cater tourists’ needs. 4. Development of Eco Tourism in Soon Valley at Khabekhi and Uchali Lake, Khushab The Soon Valley is in the north west of Khushab District adjacent to the Salt Range and Potohar Plateau. The valley extends from the village of Padhrar to Sakesar, the highest peak in the Salt Range.

  • Revised Stratigraphy of the Lower Cenozoic Succession of the Greater Indus Basin in Pakistan
    Journal of Micropalaeontology, 28: 7–23. 0262-821X/09 $15.00 2009 The Micropalaeontological Society Revised stratigraphy of the lower Cenozoic succession of the Greater Indus Basin in Pakistan JAWAD AFZAL1,2,*, MARK WILLIAMS1 & RICHARD J. ALDRIDGE1 1Department of Geology, University of Leicester, Leicester LE1 7RH, UK 2National Centre of Excellence in Geology, University of Peshawar, Pakistan *Corresponding author (e-mail: [email protected]) ABSTRACT – A refined stratigraphy for the lower Cenozoic succession of the Greater Indus Basin in Pakistan is presented. This region preserves an important East Tethyan marine succession through the Paleocene–Eocene, but its interpretation in terms of regional (tectonic) and global (climatic) effects has been inhibited by poor stratigraphy. Established dinoflagellate, nannofossil, planktonic foraminiferal and shallow benthonic foraminiferal biostratigraphical data for the Greater Indus Basin in Pakistan are collated, reinterpreted (where necessary) and correlated with the global standard chronostratigraphy and biostratigraphy of the early Palaeogene. Inter-regional stratigraphical correlations for the Upper Indus Basin and Lower Indus Basin are resolved. Age-diagnostic larger benthonic foraminifera from the Late Paleocene Lockhart Formation are illustrated. These collective biostratigraphical data provide a means of interpreting the lithostratigraphy and physical stratigraphical relationships of the Palaeogene succession in terms of the interplay between local tectonics (India–Asia collision) and global
