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 formation: It is named 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
