General geology and structural analysis of Kampung Sungai Batu, Dabong, Kelantan

Kampung Sungai Batu is situated at Dabong between longitude 101˚58’0”E to 102˚0’30”E and latitude 5˚23’30”N to 5˚21’30”N in Kuala Krai district at the southern part of Kelantan. The study area covers approximately 25 km2 area. The objective of this study is to produce a geological map of the study area with scale 1:25000, to determine the most common geological structures at the study area and to analyze the pattern or direction of the present geological structures. The methods used to produce geological map is by doing the field mapping and Geographic Information System (GIS) approach. For the structural analysis, the structure of the rock is identified by field mapping, while the pattern or direction of the present geological structures is analyzed and illustrated by stereonet and rose diagram. Based on the observation in the field mapping, the study area consists of granite, andesite, sandstone, phyllite, schist and marble. The most common structural found are fault, foliation and joint. Besides, the major pattern or direction of the present geological structures oriented toward NNE-SSW. The lineament interpretation data was correlated toward the field structural data. Most of the structural data oriented toward lineament direction, which is NNE-SSW direction.
