CHAPTER 1
INTRODUCTION
1.1 General introduction
The Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences of Bahria University , Islamabad
was organized four days field trip from !th December to ""th December "#$ to Sargodah
and %hinote& The aim was to study and observe the structure of roc's and to carry out
understanding of the geology of area&&
1.2 Introduction to AreaThe study area comprises of (recambrian igneous and meta)sedimentary roc's of the
Indian shield& The Indian shield roc's form outcrops as low)lying barren scattered hills, isolated
by the intervening alluvial (un*ab plain& They are+ irana, %hiniot, Sangla hill and Shah 'ot& The
irana hills e-tend e-tends for appro-imately ## 'm east to west and the western most hill is
only .# 'm south of the salt range& The foremost roc's are grey)green hardened shale, slates,
reddish /uartzite, thin diabase bands and layers of rhyolite and rhyolitic tuffs& The western hills
show 01)SE stri'e and are dominated by /uartzites whereas the eastern hills have 0E)S1
stri'e and show more argillaceous roc's& The irana volcanics constitute the oldest leftovers of
broad volcanoplutonic suites which mar' important tectono)magmatic events in the late
proterozoic period in (a'istan& The volcanic suites belong to tholeiitic basalt)andesite)rhyolite
magma association& The volcanics are interbedded with intercalations of volcanogenic sediments
and tuffs& The overlying meta)sedimentary units are Tuguwali, phyllites and 2sianwla /uartzites
respectively&

1.3 Previous iterature
The area was previously e-plored by 2bdul 3ateen, Syed 2lim 2hmed, and 3uhammad
0awaz %haudhary and others&
The authors established that the e-posed formations were not part of Indian shield roc's as
previously believed 4%haudhary et al&, 5556 rather they are distinctive assemblages of cratonic
rift& The 'irana hill in the area is considered to be the largest outcrop with a general northwest
stri'e& 7verall geology of the area is mafic suits of theolitic basalts, basaltic andesite and minor
andesite, while felsic roc's are rhyolite and minor dacites&
The concept of Indian shield encapsulated the purely cratonic crystalline roc's that had been
a relatively stable part of the earth8s crust over a long period of time and has only undergone
gentle wrapping& 9owever according to the petro genetic interpretations of 'iranavolacanics, it
has been suggested that bimodal suites may be produced in e-tensional environments, hence
shedding doubt on it being part of Indian shield&

The primary purpose of this field was to enhance the 'nowledge of students and ma'e them
able to identify and analyze different roc' types and structures in the field& To enable the studentshow to measure dip and stri'e with brunton compass in the field and how to ma'e rough
s'etches of out crops with proper lithology and structures&
The main purpose of the field trip was to familiarize students with geology and stratigraphy of
irana hills and %hiniot area& To enable them to distinguish between different roc' types& To
give them sufficient 'nowledge for the use of different field e/uipment i&e& brunton compass,
hand lens, geological hammer and inch meter, so that the students at the end of field study should
'now how to measure dip and stri'e, bearing of *oints and outcrops, from where and how
samples should be ta'en and how to measure the contacts, width and length of different strata& It
has also been the focus of field e-cursion, to advise students how to perform acid test on a
certain lithology and what results to be concluded on its basis& 7ne of the ob*ectives of field trip
was to enable the students to ma'e s'etch of any type of outcrop through different field
e-ercises& To e/uip students with the 'nowledge of determination of different features and
structures such as sheared zones, veins, convolute banding, ripple mar's, mineralizationAore

3.1 Tectonics o( t)e area The irana 9ills in (a'istan are e-posed in the (un*ab plains and represent remnants of the
(recambrian igneous activity within the irana)3alani basin of 0E ondwana& They are mainly
comprised of mafic and felsic roc's which belong to tholeiiticbasalt)rhyolite magma association
with meta)sediments& 3afic roc's are mainly comprised of theoleiitic basalts, basaltic andesites
and felsic roc's are rhyolites and minor dacites Hhyolites and dacites&
The Hhyolite volcanism occurred during the separation of Hadinia supercontinent as a result
of tectonic events with irana3alanibasin&Theirana 9ills volcanic is 0eoproterozoic in age,
representing the isolated outcrops of volcanic and sedimentary roc's scattered in the (un*ab
plain areas from %hiniot to Sargodha& The volcanics are the remnants of the widespread
(recambrian igneous activity within the irana)3alani basin of 0E ondwana& The irana 9ills
are very important economic sources of aggregates in the (un*ab province indicates that a variety
of roc's are e-posed in the area that includes volcanics and meta)sedimentary roc' groups&

the anticline& This zone was deformed zone normally in these area normal faulting was common
but due to dragging effects thrust faulting was common due to inverse tectonics The outcrop
showed inversed tectonics& uartzite is now intruded by Hhyolite& 7n stop two we observed
rhyolite having glassy te-ture, fresh color grey and weathered rusted color, *oints were also
present from which gases were e-pelled, 2nastamosal structure were present form during stress&

sedimentary and igneous roc's& 3eta)sedimentary roc's are /uartzite, slates and phyllites while
basalt, rhyolite and dolerites represent igneous origin& 2rea is e-tensively sheared, magmatic
intrusions can be observed by presence of dy'es, fractures and *oints while hematite, calcite and
/uartz veins represent the hydrothermal mineralization& 2cademically area is pretty good for
understanding hard roc's, hydrothermal activities and paleo)environments and economically area
has potential of metallic minerals and building materials&
