General geology, depositional environment and provenance of Bukit Panau, Tanah Merah, Kelantan
The research is focused at the Bukit Panau area which is located at the northern part of Tanah Merah district. It lies between the latitudes of N 05°49’21.25” to N 05°54’11.25” and longitudes from E 102°8’48.75” to 102°11’11.25”. Geological mapping and sedimentary analysis have been done to the rock...
