growth prospects of the economy and increasing energy demand, there has been a
skyrocket increase in Pakistan's energy demand, causing an increase in food and
stock affluence, soaring inflation and tightening the economy of Pakistan.
Pakistan's population is increasing day by day that posing a challenge to
Pakistan's economy as it increases expenditures on health, education, and
infrastructure. Moreover, we have limited conventional unexplored resources to
tackle this problem. Not understanding its resource potential, had led Pakistan
into a developing country in the world. As Pakistan has unique geology and

used to produce conventional and alternative energy. We endeavor to find out
the possible solution by studying different geological perspectives.
