Sedimentology and Structural Geology of the Neogene Formations, South East Sabah.
Sabah, situated in the northern part of the island of Borneo, and lying adjacent to actively moving plates in South East Asia region has a complex geological history. The well-developed compressive and extensional structures are the manifestation of several regional tectonic events in Sabah since th...
