Geology and depositional environment of metasediments in Taman Agropolitan Rantau Manis, Gua Musang, Kelantan

The study area is located at the southeast part of Gua Musang that bounded by longitude E 102̊ 04 18’.88” to E 102̊ 07' 02. 28" and the latitude is N 04̊ 58' 43.27" to N 04̊ 56' 01. 99". The focused of this research study is to produce geological map of the study area on scale 1:25 000 by conducting the geological mapping, petrography, structural, and lithostratigraphy. The determination depositional environment of metasediment by conducting the geological mapping, sedimentary log and identifying facies. Based on geological mapping the study area consists of three lithologies which are limestone, volcanics and metasediment unit. Further analysis from metasediments used for interpretation of depositional environment of study area. The depositional environment of metasediments in study area was indicated shallow marine. This study also can help in increasing the local economy in agriculture and discover the potential economic resources that can eradicate poverty of the area. In construction projects, the geological map may give information about the lithology and morphology in making decision for any development of the area.
