Pasir besi merupakan salah satu potensi di sebagian kawasan pantai Indonesia yang erat kaitannya dengan keberadaan kondisi geologi batuan bersusunan andesitik-basaltik, oleh sebab itu salah satunya dipilih pantai Mukomuko sebagai objek penyelidikan. Pasir besi ini terakumulasi sebagai endapan alokhton dari hasil pelapukan dan erosi tanah yang diangkut oleh sungai dan diendapkan di pantai. Proses marin berupa abrasi dan akrasi terbentuk di sepanjang garis pantai oleh pemusatan gelombang dan arus sejajar pantai. Metode penyelidikan meliputi deskripsi kualitatif karakteristik pantai, penentuan posisi, pemercontohan sedimen, analisis megaskopis, dan pemisahan mineral bersifat magnetik dengan menggunakan magnet tangan disertai foto mikrograf. Tipologi pantai Mukomuko terdiri dari gisik berpasir (Sand beach) yang sebagian di atasnya ada bangunan dinding laut, dan gisik berkerikil (Gravel beach). Endapan pasir besi umumnya menempati gisik berpasir, baik pada muka pantai maupun pada tanggul gisiknya yang sebagian membentuk pematang pantai. Distribusi persentase magnetit (% Fe) sejajar pantai memiliki pola besaran relatif sama dengan kadar frekuensi yang berkisar antara 0 % - 10 %, anomali dijumpai secara setempat pada tanggul gisik dengan kisaran antara 30,07 % - 45,73 %. Berdasarkan klasifikasi cebakan plaser, genesa pasir besi terkonsentrasi oleh media cair yang bergerak sebagai jenis plaser pantai yang dipengaruhi oleh fluviatil. Keterdapatan pasir besi diduga berasal dari Formasi Hulusimpang yang dikorelasikan sebagai Andesit Tua, Batuan Gunungapi Kuarter dan lapisan konglomerat aneka bahan Formasi Bintunan yang bersusunan andesitik-basaltik. Kata Kunci : Karakteristik pantai, magnetit, plaser pantai, sumber batuan, pantai Mukomuko Bengkulu. Iron sand is one of the mineral potential in some coastal areas of Indonesia, which is related to the presence of andesitic-basaltic rocks, therefore Mukomuko coast is then selected as the object of investigation. The iron sand is accumulated as the alochton deposit as the product of the weathering and soil erosion transported by the river and it is accumulated on the beach. The abrasion and accretion processes are formed along the shoreline by waves and currents parallel to the coast. The methods of investigation include coastal characteristics mapping, positioning, sediment sampling, megascopic analysis, and magnetic separation of minerals by using a hand magnet with micrograph photo. The coastal characteristics of Mukomuko consist of gravel beach, and sand beach that some sea walls built on. Iron sand deposits generally occupy a sand beach, either on the beach face or on the berm which partially form the beach ridge. The distribution of magnetite parallel to the coast has the same relative magnitude patterns with the frequency content ranging from 0 % - 10 %, anomaly is found locally on the berm with the frequency content ranging between 30.07 % - 45, 73 %. Based on the classification of placer deposits, iron sand is concentrated in the formation of moving liquid media as placer beach types affected fluvial. The presence of iron sand supposed to be derived from the Hulusimpang Formation is correlated as Old Andesite, Quaternary Volcanic Rocks and conglomerate layers of different materials of andesitic-basaltic composition from Bintunan Formation. Keywords: Coastal Characteristics, magnetite, beach placer, source rocks; shore of Mukomuko, Bengkulu.

Tectonic activity in an area could result in various impacts such as changes in elevation, level of slope percentages, river flow patterns and systems, and the formation of geological structures both locally and regionally, which will form a new landscape. The tectonic activity also affects the stratigraphic sequences of the area. Therefore, it is necessary to study morphotectonic or landscape forms that are influenced by active tectonic activities, both those occur recently and in the past. These geological results help provide information of the potential of natural resources in and around Tanjung Bungo area. Morphological data are based on three main aspects including morphogenesis, morphometry, and morphography. The data are collected in two ways, the first is field survey by directly observing and taking field data such as measuring geological structures, rock positions, and outcrop profiles. The second way is to interpret them through Digital Elevation Model (DEM) and aerial photographs by analyzing river flow patterns and lineament analysis. The field measurement data are processed using WinTensor, Dips, and SedLog Software. The supporting data such as Topographic Maps, Morphological Elevation Maps, Slope Maps, Flow Pattern Maps, and Lineament Maps are based on DEM data and are processed using ArcGis Software 10.6.1 and PCI Geomatica. Morphotectonically, the Tanjung Bungo area is at a moderate to high-class level of tectonic activity taken place actively resulted in several joints, faults, and folds. The formation of geological structures has affected the morphological conditions of the area as seen from the development of steep slopes, structural flow patterns such as radial, rectangular, and dendritic, as well as illustrated by rough surface relief in Tanjung Bungo area. This area has the potential for oil and gas resources as indicated by the Telisa Formation, consisting of calcareous silts rich in planktonic and benthonic fossils, which may be source rocks and its contact with the Menggala Formation which is braided river system deposits that could be good reservoirs. Further research needs to be done since current research is only an interpretation of surface data. Current natural resources being exploited in Tanjung Bungo region are coals. The coals have thicknesses of 5-7 cm and are classified as bituminous coals.

<p>The studied area is in the southeastern region of Eastern Sayan. Several tectonically dissected ophiolite complexes were exposed along the margin of the Gargan block and tectonically thrust over this block. Placer nuggets of PGE alloys from the Kitoy river were examined using a scanning electron microscope. Platinum-group minerals (PGM's) in placer deposits provide vital information about the types of their primary source rocks and ores as well as the conditions of formation and alteration. The primary PGM's are Os-Ir-Ru alloys, (Os, Ru)S<sub>2</sub>, and (Os, Ir, Ru)AsS. (Os, Ru)S<sub>2</sub> form overgrowth around the Os-Ir-Ru alloys. The secondary, remobilized PGM's are native osmium, (Ir-Ru) alloys, garutite (Ir, Ni, Fe), zaccarinite (RhNiAs), selenides, tellurides (Os, Ir, Ru), and non-stoichiometric (Pd, Pt, Fe, Te, Bi) phases (Fig.1). Secondary PGM's (garutite and RhNiAs) form rims around Os-Ir-Ru alloys, intergrowth with them, or form polyphase aggregates. Such PGM's (identical in composition and microstructure) are also found in chromitites from Neoproterozoic ophiolite massifs of Eastern Sayan (Kiseleva et al., 2014; 2020). Platinum-metal minerals, exotic for ophiolites, are found among secondary PGM's such as selenides and tellurides (Os, Ir, Ru), (Pt, Pd)<sub>3</sub>Fe, Pd<sub>3</sub>(Te, Bi), (Au, Ag), and non-stoichiometric (Pd, Pt, Fe, Te, Bi) phases. They occur as inclusions in the Os-Ir-Ru alloys or fill cracks in crushed grains of primary PGM's. PGM's in placer deposits of the Kitoy river are similar to the mineral composition of PGE in chromitites of the Ospa-Kitoy ophiolitic massif, which contain Pt-Pd minerals and Pt impurities in Os-Ir-Ru alloys (Kiseleva et al., 2014). Selenides (Os-Ir-Ru) are rare within PGM's from ophiolite chromitites (Barkov et al., 2017; Airiyants et al., 2020) and also occur in chromitites of the Dunzhugur ophiolite massif (Kiseleva et al., 2016). Features of selenides and tellurides (Os, Ir, Ru) indicate their late formation as a result of the influence of magmatic and metamorphic fluids on primary PGE alloys. The filling of cracks in crushed (Os-Ir-Ru) alloys indicates that selenides and tellurides formed during tectonic deformation processes. The source of platinum-group minerals from the Kitoy river placer is the Ospa-Kitoy ophiolite massif, and primarily chromitites.</p><p><img src="https://contentmanager.copernicus.org/fileStorageProxy.php?f=gepj.eb9553e3c70065361211161/sdaolpUECMynit/12UGE&app=m&a=0&c=f3ccc1c7cf7d06094d2afaa34fe9d9a1&ct=x&pn=gepj.elif&d=1" alt=""></p><p>Figure 1.

Source rocks for the platinum group minerals (PGM), historically reported in a number of Yukon placers, remain either unknown or poorly understood. A study of heavy-mineral samples from five creeks draining bedrock in west and central Yukon was undertaken to confirm the presence of placer platinum, to determine which mafic–ultramafic rock is the source of PGM in Kluane area, southern Yukon, and to explain platinum occurrences in Canadian and Florence creeks, central Yukon, where no known mafic–ultramafic rocks are present. Diverse composition of chromian spinel and clinopyroxenes from three creeks in the Kluane area indicate several sources of ultramafic rocks, including fragments of Alpine-type peridotites formed in back-arc basin and mid-ocean-ridge settings, and a source rock for zoned zinc-rich chromites of unknown origin. The Kluane ultramafic sills are the most likely source of PGM in this area. The heavy-mineral sample from Canadian Creek returned one PGM grain, no chromite, and abundant ilmenite and titanomagnetite. A group of chromium-rich magnesian ilmenites (∼4 wt.% MgO) closely match the composition of ilmenites from continental mafic intrusions produced during continental rift magmatism. This supports the continental rifting event recently proposed for this part of Yukon and indicates the economic potential of the Canadian Creek platinum occurrence. Composition of spinel from Florence Creek sample indicates an Alaskan-type intrusion as the source of PGM.

<p>More than 25 years have passed since the definition of Active Tectonics as "tectonic movements that are expected to occur within a future time span of concern to society", formulated in a milestone book by the National Research Council on this topic (Studies in Geophysics, Active Tectonics, National Academy Press, Washington, D.C. 1986), and those words have still to be considered the most suitable and exhaustive way to explain this branch of the Earth Sciences. Indeed only bridging together basic studies ("tectonic movements"), rates of occurrence ("time span") and hazard assessment ("society") can we fully evaluate ongoing tectonic activity and its associated hazards. The broad Mediterranean Sea region is a paradigmatic area from this point of view, as on one hand this region displays in a relatively limited geographic extent a great variety of tectonic processes such as plate collision, subduction, volcanic activity, large-magnitude earthquakes, active folding and faulting, vertical uplift and/or subsidence. On the other hand, all the above mentioned tectonic processes can potentially affect a total population of about 450 million, mostly concentrated in fast-growing urban areas and/or close to industrial compounds and critical facilities often located nearby hazard sources.

Abstract In the area of carbonate or karst Dinarides, besides the dominant carbonate rocks and subordinate clastics, in more places more significant mass of chemical sediments can be found, represented by gypsum and anhydrite. As chemical sediments are specifically lighter than overlying rocks, they have been, during the long geological history, trying to achieve isostatic equilibrium, or get out on the ground surface. In recent times, in areas with chemical sediments, a larger tectonic activity is noted than in the wider environment. This is certainly reflected in increased vertical and tangential displacements along major faults in relation to the surrounding area, which are built mainly of carbonate deposits. Determining the amount of movement of diapiric bodies, as absolute and relative, using the most modern surveying methods, precisely would assist the understanding of the tectonic movements and recent structural relations in a wider area

Seismo-stratigraphic interpretation of seismic sections dating from the mid-1970s has disclosed the existence of four megasequences of sediments, the oldest of which has not previously been reported from West Greenland. The basins containing these sediments developed as a series of coalescing half graben, in which the main site of tectonic activity changed with time. A structural closure of sufficient size to contain interesting quantities of hydrocarbons, given suitable source rocks, reservoir and seal, is identified. The study has shown that the evaluation of the West Greenland Basin during the 1970s was inadequate, and that abandonment of exploration by the petroleum industry may have been premature.

The Early Cambrian eastern Officer and Arrowie Basins share a common sequence stratigraphic framework despite their contrasting settings. The Arrowie Basin was initially a shallow marine shelf between two land masses with moderate to abrupt shelf-ramp and shelf-slope profiles deepening to the north and south. Tectonic activity subsequently restricted open marine access to the north resulting in evaporite and red bed deposition. In the eastern Officer Basin epeiric sea sediments had open marine access only to the northeast. The palaeoslope was low and surrounding land supplied abundant siliciclastics. Following marine withdrawal alkaline playa lake and evaporitic mudflat deposits spread across the hinterland. Potential source rocks in the Arrowie Basin are thick transgressive and early high-stand deposits of the lowest three sequences. Organic carbon content may be highest (on slender evidence) where marine circulation was restricted. Carbonate reservoir quality on the shelf depends on subaerial exposure during marine lowstands. Prograding highstand sands, carbonate grainstones, and syntectonic channel deposits have untested reservoir potential. In the eastern Officer Basin potential source rocks are thin but widespread. Oil has been generated in the playa lake sediments. Fluvial, aeolian and shoreline sandstones, and those interbedded with carbonates, have excellent reservoir characteristics. The interbedded sands are thin but may be grouped near sequence boundaries. Lowstand carbonate breccias have generally unpredictable reservoir quality. Major differences in source and reservoir bed distribution between these basins, which share the same cycles of relative sea level change, are: palaeoslope, proximity to open marine conditions, duration of subaerial exposure and availability of terrigenous clastics.

The platinum-group minerals (PGM) in placer deposits provide important information on the types of their primary source rocks and ores and formation and alteration conditions. The article shows for the first time the results of a study of placer platinum mineralization found in the upper reaches of the Kitoy River (the southeastern part of the Eastern Sayan (SEPES)). Using modern methods of analysis (scanning electron microscopy), the authors studied the microtextural features of platinum-group minerals (PGM), their composition, texture, morphology and composition of microinclusions, rims, and other types of changes. The PGM are Os‑Ir‑Ru alloys with a pronounced ruthenium trend. Many of the Os‑Ir‑Ru grains have porous, fractured, or altered rims that contain secondary PGE sulfides, arsenides, sulfarsenides, Ir-Ni-Fe alloys, and rarer selenides, arsenoselenides, and tellurides of the PGE. The data obtained made it possible to identify the root sources of PGM in the placer and to make assumptions about the stages of transformation of primary igneous Os-Ir-Ru alloys from bedrock to placer. We assume that there are several stages of alteration of high-temperature Os-Ir-Ru alloys. The late magmatic stage is associated with the effect of fluid-saturated residual melt enriched with S, As. The post-magmatic hydrothermal stage (under conditions of changing reducing conditions to oxidative ones) is associated with the formation of telluro-selenides and oxide phases of PGE. The preservation of poorly rounded and unrounded PGM grains in the placer suggests a short transport from their primary source. The source of the platinum-group minerals from the Kitoy River placer is the rocks of the Southern ophiolite branch of SEPES and, in particular, the southern plate of the Ospa-Kitoy ophiolite complex, and primarily chromitites.
