The document summarizes two volcanic groups in the Chagai-Raskoh magmatic arc:
1) The Sinjrani Volcanic group from the mid to late Cretaceous period consisting of lava flows, volcaniclastics, and minor shale and limestone intruded by Chagai granite and other igneous rocks.
2) The equivalent Kuchaki volcanic group consisting of volcanic agglomerate, lava, tuff and minor limestone and sandstone near the top.

the Cretaceous to recent deposition. Sinjrani Volcanic group: It consists of agglomerate, volcanic conglomerate, tuff and lava with subordinate shale, sandstone and limestone. It includes Basaltic- andesitic lava flows and volcaniclastics, with minor shale, sandstone, siltstone, lenticular bodies of limestone and mudstone. It is Mid to Late Cretaceous (Aptian to Santonian). This group was invaded during Late Cretaceous to Pleistocene by Chagai intrusions, represented by several phases including granite, adamellite, granodiorite, tonalite, diorite and gabbro. Its thickness is 900- 1200m. The upper contact with Humai formation is generally conformable and lower contact is not exposed. Kuchaki volcanic group (equivalent of Sinjrani volcanic group) is named for the village of Kuchaki (34 G/8) about 63 km southwest of Ahmad Wal (HSC, 1961). It consists of volcanic agglomerate, lava, tuff, with subordinate inpersistent limestone, tuffaceous shale and sandstone near the top of the assemblage. Bunap complex includes the obducted ophiolite mélange which includes gabbro, diorite and
