Figure 2. Samples location map. Fine aggregate samples (n=11) were collected from various quarry sites (locally termed as Reti Dikkas) oper- ating around Bholari River, Jamshoro District. Sampling was carried out in compliance with ASTM D-75 from stockpiles. Fine aggregates were characterized for (a) physical properties and (b) mechanical properties.

Study area is Bholari River in Sindh which is also called “Baran Nai’. Total length of the river is about 160 km (99.2 miles). It originates from Kirthar Range near Goth Jam Nida, Las Bela District, Baluchistan and goes all the way through Thano Bulla Khan and ends up mak- ing a fan shaped deposit near Kotri and Indus River and flows in low lying area between Kirthar Ranges on the west and Hyderabad High on the east (Figure 1). Bhol- ari River flow along the transact of the various exposed ithology that include Kirthar Formation, Laki and Tiyon Formation, Nari Formation, Gaj Formation and Manchar Formation of Eocene, Oligocene, Miocene and Pliocene respectively which are also exposed in Thano Bulla Khan and adjacent areas.
