Endapan molasa di daerah Tawaeli, Kabupalen Donggala, Sulawesi Tengah, dibentuk oleh perselingan antara konglmerat, breksi, batupasir, dan batulanau/batulumpur. Secara umum, endapan tersebut terpilah buruk, tergentengkan ke arah barat dan tidak termampatkan. Sumber endapan berasal dari Kompleks Batuan Malihan, Formasi Tinombo, dan batuan terobosan berdasarkan kumpulan keratan batuan …
Penyelidikan umum/tinjau. Tahapan ini mencakup penilaian regional atau orientasi, yakni meneliti data dan informasi serta mengadakan penyelidikan lapangan dan laboratorium untuk membuat asumsi yang dapat diandalkan sehingga arah dan kedudukan tahapan kegiatan berikutnya dapat ditentukan. Dalam pengkajian sumber daya mineral yang b…
In 1976, the joint research project of the former Geological Survey of Indonesia and the University of Tokyo started. The subject was "Stratigraphy, paleontology and chronology of the hominid fossil bearing formations in Java". From 1977 to 1979 the project was continued as the Technical Cooperation project CTA-4l which had the objective of strengthening services at the Geolog…
Di bidang eksplorasi mineral di Indonesia nampak kegiatan makon besar sebagai mana nyata dari jumlah pertemuan, laporan dan terbitan makin meningkat. Hal ini memerlukan sarana komunikasi, diantaranya berupa istilah dan tata nama yang seragam baku dan dapat diterima penggunaannya secara merata. Istilah yang tidak sesuai akan ditinggalkan dan yang dianggap cocok atau kurang cocok akan tetapi suda…
The serpentinised ultramafic rocks of Northern Sumatra occur in linear zones along the main faults of the Sumatra Fault system within the Barisan Mountains They are considered to be alpine type and are discussed within a framework of a general review of the nature and origin of serpentinite belts. The greatest development of ultramafics o…
The Copper - Gold Porphyry of Kaputusan shows a zoning of hydrothermal alteration. A potassic core is surrounded by a propylitic halo. A younger pyrite-rich quartz-sericitic alteration partly overprints the older alterations. Analyses from channel • samples from superficial trenches show that copper is mostly leached in the areas of quartz-sericitic alteration. Analysing…

This paper discusses one of the successful application of induced polarization (IP) and magnetic methods to an epithermal gold prospect of Mt. Subang, West Jawa, Indonesia. The main host-rock for the metallic minerals in the epithermal gold deposit of Mt. Subang is an altered andesite. In this case study, therefore, the magnetic method is used to map the zone of altered andesite and to confirm …
