General Geology and Surface Investigation of Groundwater Potential Zone Using Geological Mapping and Geographical Information System (Gis) at Telaga Bijih area, Tanah Merah, Kelantan.
Identifying a good site for groundwater exploration in hard rock terrain is a challenging task. In hard rocks, groundwater occur in secondary porosity developed due to weathering, fracturing, faulting, etc., which is highly variable and varies sharply within very short distances, contributing to nea...

Identifying a good site for groundwater exploration in hard rock terrain is a challenging task. In hard rocks, groundwater occur in secondary porosity developed due to weathering, fracturing, faulting, etc., which is highly variable and varies sharply within very short distances, contributing to near-surface aquifer. In such situations topographic, hydrogeological and geomorphological features provide useful clues for the selection of suitable sites. The study area lies between latitude 5° 45' 10.508 N and 5° 47' 53.309" N and longitude 101° 56' 29.001" E and 101° 59' 12.249" E.
