Shorkoh intrusions:

Most of the intrusions


are dykes or sills but a
few small lenticular
stocks have been found
in the region of Robat
and
Saindak. These are
hypabyssal and
intermediate
composition. The
rocks are mainly
diorite. The age is Late
Eocene or later (HSC,
1961).
Pishi group/Dalbandin

after the Pishi Rud
lies in the Ras Koh
Range south of
Dalbandin. These rocks
are found
in between Gaukoh
Hamun (30P/15) and
Bunap (34H/5). The
rocks of
the group are thought to
be also present in the
Dalbandin synclinorium
named as Dalbandin
assemblage (HSC,
1961). It consists of
shale,
mudstone, soft
sandstone and
conglomerate. The clay
is white, green,
ochre and brown. A
small amount of
limestone in the lower
part of
assemblage contains
Paleocene fossils. The
Pishi and Dalbandin
group
are similar to Urak and
Multana formations.
The succession of
sandstone and shale is
similar to Nauroz
formation but the
limestone
resembles the Kharan
Limestone. The
sandstone of the Pishi
area is
