Reviewer-supplied open-access (CC BY) paper, full text reviewed. Microfacies, depositional environment (shallow-marine carbonate ramp), diagenesis and C/O isotopes of the Middle Jurassic Samana Suk Formation at the Paniala (Khisor Range) and Chichali (Surghar Range) sections; corroborates Datta (Early Jurassic) and Shinawari (Early-Middle Jurassic) ages.

Units citing this source

• Mesozoic Datta Formation Jurassic
  • Age: Jamil et al. (2024) place the Datta Formation as the Early Jurassic base of the Trans Indus Jurassic succession (Datta → Shinawari → Samana Suk).
• Mesozoic Samana Suk Formation Jurassic
  • Depositional environment: Jamil et al. (2024): a shallow-marine carbonate ramp — wackestone and packstone microfacies dominate, with occasional grainstone and mudstone; the Chichali (Surghar) section spans supratidal to outer-ramp settings, the Paniala (Khisor) section intertidal to middle ramp.
  • Thickness: Jamil et al. (2024): measured outcrop thickness 88 m in the Paniala section (Khisor Range) and 98 m in the Chichali section (Surghar Range) — thinner than the regional 200–400 m; the existing figure is retained.
  • Economic importance: Jamil et al. (2024): extensive diagenetic calcite cementation, micritization and dolomitization (including baroque dolomite) pervasively reduced the pore network, making these Jurassic carbonates a tight reservoir; carbon and oxygen isotopes track the depositional and diagenetic variation.
• Mesozoic Shinawari Formation Jurassic
  • Age: Jamil et al. (2024): Early–Middle Jurassic; the base of the overlying Samana Suk Formation lies conformably upon it.
