Abstract

Thorium dan uranium di Pulau Bangka terdapat di dalam mineral monasit. Secara geologi monasit terbentuk pada  granit tipe S, batupasir serta endapan aluvium.  Di daerah Bangka Barat terdapat beberapa granit tipe S dan aluvium hasil rombakannya sehingga wilayah ini dianggap sebagai wilayah potensial untuk terbentuk cebakan monasit tipe plaser. Granit tipe S dianggap sebagai sumber monasit sedangkan aluvium hasil rombakannya dianggap sebagai tempat berakumulasinya monasit. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui informasi geologi dan potensi sumber daya thorium dan uranium pada endapan aluvium di Bangka Barat. Metoda yang digunakan adalah pemetaan geologi, pengukuran kadar thorium dan uranium batuan, pengambilan sampel batuan granit untuk analisis petrografi, pengambilan sampel mineral berat pada aluvium untuk analisis butir. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa litologi di wilayah Bangka Barat tersusun oleh satuan sekis, satuan metabatupasir, terobosan granit, terobosan diabas, satuan batupasir dan aluvium. Monasit dijumpai pada terobosan granit, satuan batupasir dan aluvium. Sesar yang berkembang adalah sesar-sesar yang berarah relatif barat laut–tenggara, timur laut–barat daya dan barat–timur. Hasil analisis butiran mineral berat menunjukkan persentase monasit rata-rata dalam mineral berat adalah sebesar 6,34%. Mineral lain yang terdapat dalam cebakan plaser dan cukup potensial adalah zirkon 36,65 %, ilmenit 19,67%, dan kasiterit 14,75%.Kata kunci: endapan plaser, aluvium, thorium, uranium, granit, Bangka Barat

Abstract

Bangka Island is an area rich in primary and secondary tin deposits. Tin deposits are formed around the contact between granite and older rocks, while secondary tin deposits are formed in the modern channels and paleochannels. Many previous researchers have researched radioactive minerals in primary tin deposits and modern channel deposits, but research on radioactive minerals in paleo channel deposits has never been carried out. The characterization of radioactive minerals in paleo channel deposits was done in this study to determine the potency of radioactive minerals in secondary tin deposits by comparing the content of radioactive minerals in paleochannels with modern channels and tin mine tailing deposits. The data used were mineralogical data and radioactivity data, along with the uranium and thorium content of the rocks from several previous studies. Data showed significant mineral content differences in paleo channel, modern channel, and tin mine tailings deposits. Mineral (monazite and zircon) content in tin mine tailing deposits was the highest. Source rocks for the radioactive minerals monazite and zircon are predicted to be the granitic rocks or tourmaline quartz veins of primary tin deposits. The radioactivity value of rocks in the paleo channel is relatively the same as the modern channel, ranging from 20 to 150 c/s. Uranium content in paleo channel is the same as modern channel deposits, ranging from 10 to 15 ppm eU. The thorium content of the rocks in the paleo channel ranges from 1 to 60 ppm eTh, while in the modern channel, it ranges from 1 to 45 ppm eTh. The radioactivity value and uranium content of the rocks are less effective for determining potential areas of radioactive minerals in placer tin deposits. In contrast, data on thorium content are quite effective for determining potential areas of radioactive minerals in placer tin deposits.

Abstract

Gosong Beach in Bengkayang, West Kalimantan, is selected as a potential Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) site candidate. Volcanic and intrusive rocks are found in the radius of 150 km from it. Based on IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) standard, the main assessment target is volcanic rock that is younger than 10 Ma. However, there are Tertiary volcanic and intrusive rocks next to and cover a wide area around the NPP site that show volcanic activities over the Tertiary period. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate this group of rocks to understand its characteristics. This study aims to characterize the geochemistry and petrology of the Tertiary volcanic and intrusive rocks found in northwestern Kalimantan. The fieldwork was conducted to observe and to take Serantak volcanic rocks, Bawang dacite, Niut volcanics, and Sintang intrusion samples. The XRF and micro-XRF analyses were conducted to characterize the geochemical aspect, while petrography and AMICS analyses were conducted to characterize the mineralogical aspect. The result shows that Serantak volcanic rocks, Bawang dacite, Niut volcanics, and Sintang intrusion are derived from tholeiitic to calc-alkaline as a product of mantel partial melting in the subduction zone which go through fractional crystallization. The volcanic activity was initiated by the rise of primitive parental magma from partial melting in the shallow-depth subducted crust as indicated by the garnet-free HREE pattern, the enrichment of LILE and LREE, and the depleted HREE. The Tertiary magmatism in northwestern Kalimantan was found in a small activity with a small impact on the NPP candidate site at Gosong Beach, Bangkayang.
