ESIA of Block VI Lignite Mining Project Appendix I: Socioeconomic Baseline and Transport Basline I.1 Introduction The part of the southwestern desert area of Pakistan which is commonly known as the Thar Desert stretches for about 200 km from north to south and has a width of 200 km at its widest point (at the southern end) and about 80 km at its narrowest point (near the northern end). The ground elevation generally increases from south, where it is close to the sea level, to north where it is nearly 100 m; and from west to east. The dominant feature of this vast expanse of land is the sand dunes aligned in the northeast-southwest direction. However, the area is not uniform as both the size and frequency of the sand dunes vary across Thar Desert. The sand dunes, or bhits as they are locally called, are generally more frequent in the north than in the south. However, they appear to be relatively smaller in the east than in the west. Similarly, the size of the hills is generally smaller in the north than in the south. The largest of the sand dunes appear to be concentrated in the southwestern part of Thar Desert where some dunes rise to a height of almost 150 m from the base of the dune. Many of the sand dunes gradually shift.
