Both field and laboratory works are used to collect the data for interpretation of geology and depositional environment.

This is the first study that focuses on the evaluation of a newly discovered oil shale deposit in the eastern Chenor area in the state of Pahang, Malaysia. Previously, this deposit was reported as carbonaceous/coaly mudstone. However, in this study, organic-rich immature carbonaceous mudstone containing above 15 wt % total organic carbon (TOC) is evaluated as oil shale, and that below 3.5 wt ...

Abstract The Kudat Formation, formed the major rock unit of Kudat Peninsula in the northern tip of Borneo Island, is made up of interbedded sandstone and mudstone with fossiliferous limestone...

The altitude varies from 120-500 m above sea level. Soils are acrisols and parent materials are commonly sandstone, mudstone and alluvium. The soil pH is acid (4.5) and available phosphate is very low. ... Malaysia has adopted the forest plantation approach as a strategy to overcome two basic wood supply problems that are predicted for the late ...

Jul 12, 2017· Mudrock is a type of sedimentary rock whose original constituents are clays and muds. Mudrocks are fine grained siliciclastic which include mudstone and claystone depending on the grain size. The colour of mudstone is a function of its minerology content and geochemistry processes. One common sedimentary structure of mudrocks is lamination due to variations in grain size and …

The succession of the sequence is composed of a major shoreface deposits during the late Early Miocene. The measured sections are predominantly composed of interbedded sandstone and mudstone usually show sedimentary structures which are indicative of wave and tidal processes, such as swaley, hummocky, trough and planar cross stratifications.

A Mudstone: few small components in a micritic matrix, width of picture is 32 mm In the Dunham classification (Dunham, 1962) system of limestones, a mudstone is defined as a mud-supported carbonate rock that contains less than 10% grains.

The Upper Paleozoic pebbly mudstone facies of peninsular Thailand and western Malaysia — Continental margin deposits of Palaeoeurasia — Discussion Stauffer, Peter H. Peng, Lee Chai

A mudstone is a siliciclastic sedimentary rock that contains a mixture of silt- and clay-sized particles (at least 1/3 of each). The terminology of "mudstone" is not to be confused with the Dunham classification scheme for limestones. In Dunham's classification, a mudstone is any limestone containing less than ten percent carbonate grains.

In the paper on the pebbly mudstone deposits of Thailand and Malaysia (Geol. Rdsch. 75/2, 371-381) 1 tried to show that the circumstantial evidence for the glaciomarine origin of these sediments is mis- construed and all the ,,hints,, do not necessarily sup- port the glaciomarine origin. I have also listed some

Summary The study explores the use of 2-D resistivity method to identify the type of mudstone from the outcrop of Bukit Chondong (BC), Perlis. The distinction of mudstone is based from the comparison of resistivity values of different mudstone, which are the red mudstone and the grey mudstone from outcrop of Guar Jentik (GJ) and Utan Aji (UA) in Perlis.
