STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY
OF GUNUNG JERAI

Structural Analysis
Based on the results gathered, an interpretation regarding the formation and stratigraphy of the Jerai Formation can be determined. The tectonic movement and formation of the Jerai Formation can be explained based on the rose diagrams. The rose diagrams are classified into three types of fractures which are igneous rocks fracture, metasedimentary rocks fractures and sandstone fractures. Among them, the major fractures are metasedimentary and igneous because these two groups had undergone tectonic events.
​
A stereonet analysis also has been made to study the behaviour of the bedding. Aside from that, rose diagrams of structural features such as quartz vein and pegmatite are also created. The analysis of Gunung Jerai as a whole was made to give us the bigger picture of this area. Click below for more info.
