Compiled from the Work of the Royal Dutch Shell Group of Companies in the British Territories in Borneo and from Various Published Accounts Volume 3 of Bulletin British Territories in Borneo. Existing geological map ofSarawak Yin 1992 shows that the central part of Sarawak is occupied by several rock units the oldest being the Lupar Formation followed by the Belaga Formations and subsequently the Melinau Limestone Tatau Buan and Nyalau Formations.
The Miri zone consists of sedimentary rocks deposited under shallow marine estuarine and fluvial systems during Neogene. The regional geology of the Sarawak state is divided into three major zones namely Kuching Sibu and Miri. Recent geological mapping by an AustralianlIndonesian team in West and Central Kalimantan has resulted in a revised stratigraphy for the Paleozoic-Tertiary igneous and.
Currently open for submissions on a rolling basis. The main objectives are to produce a geological map and to identify the properties of shale from Setap Formation including both physical and chemical properties at the outcrop located on street sideways of Jalan Beluru-Bakong E3 59 N114 02. The study of Geology of Setap Shale formation is aiming on observing the potential of shale gas in the Setap shale formation.
The objective of this study is to identify the structural characteristics of the rocks and to relate it to the deformation direction of the study area. The total area of the study is approximately 100km²The focus for this study is on the outcrops found along the Bintulu-Sibu By-Pass Road near Tatau Town. The most northerly is the Miri Zone dominated by shallow marine shelf sediments that were deposited upon older continental crust.
The Balingian Province is part of peripheral foreland basin fill of Sarawak Basin which formed due to the closure of the Rajang Sea and the Sarawak Orogeny during the. The boundary between the Miri Zone and Sibu Zone is Tatau-Mersing Line Hutchison 1989 Fig. Geological Survey Department Issue 3 of Bulletin Geological Survey Department.
