Abstract

Nongsa Isle belongs to Putri Islands in Batam, is the outermost island that need to be protected either from natural hazards and anthropogenic factor. Therefore, this study was conducted by performing Ground Penetrating Radar analysis, in order to understand the geological condition particularly sedimentology and its process. We used Sirveyor 20 GPR equipment type with MLF antenna frequency 40 Mhz and Radan 5 as processing software, which include time zero correction, spatial filter, deconvolution, migration and adjustment of amplitude and signal gain. Data interpretation was conducted based on radar facies methodology that describes georadar image/radargram. The study result showed differences of sedimentary facies based on three differences of radar facies units, with the first layer (unit 1) is the youngest unit has thicknesses ranging from 3.5 – 5 m that characterized by parallel, strong reflector, high amplitude and continuous reflector configurations, unit 2 from 5 – 11 meter of depth, indicates parallel reflector pattern with medium-high amplitude and continuous, and unit 3 which is the oldest unit with thickness until penetration limit (11 – 20 m), characterized by a configuration of sub parallel – hummocky reflectors that are undulating, low-medium amplitude reflectors. Based on radar facies characteristics such as reflector configuration, reflection amplitude, and reflection continuity, the differencies of depositional facies are changes from fluvial – coastal plain.

Abstract

Bintan Island is one of the areas traversed by the Southeast Asian granitoid belt which is known to have the potential for heavy mineral placer deposits. Due to the dwindling presence of heavy mineral placer deposits in land areas, it is necessary to look for the potential presence of heavy mineral placer deposits in water areas. Searching for placer heavy mineral deposits accomodation in these waters requires subsurface mapping.The method used in this subsurface mapping is a single channel seismic method with a total of 179 lines in the direction of northeast – southwest and west – east. The results of this seismic recording are then interpreted the boundaries of the seismic facies unit and distributed using the kriging method. Furthermore, the thickness calculates by using the assumption velocity 1600 m/s.Based on the facies unit boundaries that have been interpreted, the quaternary sediments that formed in the study area are divided into 2 types of units, namely: Unit 2 which is estimated to be fluvial – transitional sediment, and Unit 1 which is estimated to be transitional sediment – shallow sea. There is also a difference in thickness patterns in these two units, where unit 2 shows a pattern of sediment thickening that resembles a paleochannel trending northeast – southwest, while unit 1 is relatively uniform.From the results of this study, it can be said that the area that has potential for heavy mineral placer  deposits is in the west - center of the southern waters of Bintan Island. Where the potential for heavy mineral placer deposits should be in the paleochannel deposits that are part of Unit 2.

Abstract

Bangka Island has primary and secondary tin deposit. However, along the history of tin mining has been done the primary tin deposit domination is less than secondary tin deposit. Secondary tin deposit is formed from Granitic S-type source rock weathering and then transported by gravity. After that, Cassiterite mineral (SnO2) accumulates and forms a placer deposit in the study area. The thickness of sediment cover at Toboali Waters is quite diverse, with a range between 5-20 milliseconds, by knowing the quarter sediment thickness using seismic data interpretation results, is expected to give an idea about tin placer deposit potential in Toboali waters. Based on the Isochron map shows patterns of quaternary sediment thickening to the southwest, south and southeast of Bangka Island.Keywords: Quaternary sediment, placer deposit, isochron map, Toboali WatersPulau Bangka memiliki endapan timah primer dan endapan timah sekunder. Namun, sepanjang sejarah penambangan timah yang telah dilakukan endapan timah primer tidak mendominasi jika dibandingkan dengan endapan timah sekunder. Pembentukan endapan timah sekunder berawal dari pelapukan batuan Granit tipe-S yang kemudian mengalami transportasi akibat adanya gravitasi. Setelah itu, mineral kasiterit (SnO2) terakumulasi dan membentuk endapan plaser di daerah penelitian. Ketebalan sedimen penutup di Perairan Toboali berkisar antara 5-20 milidetik, dengan mengetahui ketebalan sedimen kuarter berdasarkan interpretasi data hasil rekaman seismik diharapkan dapat memberikan gambaran tentang potensi endapan timah placer di Perairan Toboali. Berdasarkan atas peta isokron, memperlihatkan bahwa pola penebalan sedimen kuater ke arah baratdaya, selatan dan tenggara Pulau Bangka.Kata kunci : Sedimen kuarter, endapan placer, peta isokron, Perairan Toboali
