Core Subject : Science,
The spirit to improve the journal to be more credible is increasing, and in 2012 it invited earth scientists in East and Southeast Asia as well as some western countries to join the journal for the editor positions in the Indonesia Journal of Geology. This is also to realize our present goal to internationalize the journal, The Indonesian Journal on Geoscience, which is open for papers of geology, geophysics, geochemistry, geodetics, geography, and soil science. This new born journal is expected to be published three times a year. As an international publication, of course it must all be written in an international language, in this case English. This adds difficulties to the effort to obtain good papers in English to publish although the credit points that an author will get are much higher. This Journal publishes 3 numbers per year at least 15 articles. It is a challenge for the management of the journal to remain survive and at the same time continuously maintain its quality and credibility in spite of those various constraints. Fortunately, this effort is strongly supported by the Geological Agency of Indonesia, as the publisher and which financially bear the journal. Last but not least the journal is also managed by senior geologist of various subdisciplines from various countries who are responsible for its quality.

Abstract

http://dx.doi.org/10.17014/ijog.vol4no3.20096Organic petrologic data of the DOM of Talangakar and Muaraenim Formations show that the organic matter consisting mainly of vitrinite group is essentially composed of telocollinite (1.0 – 70.8 %) and desmocollinite (0.8 – 66.6 %) with minor telinite (0.6 – 9.4 %), detrovitrinite (0.6 – 6.0 %), and cor- pocollinite (0.6 – 2.0 %). Minor exinite (0.4 – 7.8 %) and inertinite (0.4 – 8.0 %) are also determined. However, mineral matter varies from 0.6 – 99.44 %. Downwards, the increase in vitrinite reflectance (0.33 – 0.48 %) is concomitant with the depth of each formation. Furthermore, based on Rock-eval pyrolysis, TOC value of the Talangakar Formation ranges from 0.09 – 15.38 %, Gumai 0.34 – 0.39 %, Airbenakat 0.32 – 4.82 %, and Muaraenim between 0.08 – 15.22 %. Moreover the PY (Potential Yield) value variation of the Talangakar, Gumai, Airbenakat, and Muaraenim Formations are between 0.04 – 36.61 mg HC/g rock, 0.53 – 0.81 mg HC/g rock, 0.1 – 4.37 mg HC/g rock, and 0.07 – 129.8 mg HC/g rock respectively. Therefore, on the basis of those two parameters, the four formations are included into a gas - oil prone source rock potential. However, the Talangakar and Muaraenim Formations are poor to excellent category, whereas the Air Benakat tends to indicate a poor – fair category and Gumai Formation are only within a poor category. Tmax value of the Talangakar ranges from 237 – 4380 C, Gumai 316 – 3590 C, Airbenakat 398 – 4340 C with exceptions of 4970 C and 5180 C, and Muaraenim Forma- tions 264 – 4250 C. The Talangakar Formation contains kerogen Type II dan III, with the HI (Hydrogen Index) value varies from 45.16 – 365.43. However two samples show value of 0. The organic content of the Gumai and Air Benakat Formations are included into kerogen type III, with HI value ranges from11.87 – 40.82, and 19 – 114 respectively. Moreover the Muaraenim Formation has two category of kerogen type and HI value, those are type III with the HI value of 1 and kerogen type I with HI value of 821.29. The diagram of Tmax vs HI shows that the organic thermal maturation of the four formations are included into an immature to mature level.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v4i4.83Kelud Volcano (+1731 m) in East Java is one of the most active and dangerous volcanoes in Indonesia. A large lake occupies the summit crater. Historical eruptions generally only lasted for a very short time, mostly no longer than a few hours. The outburst is usually accompanied by pyroclastic flows. On August 2007, the activity of the volcano was initiated by the increase of the temperature of lake water and the change of the colour from typical green to yellow. Activities of the volcano are discussed following the swarms of volcano-tectonic (VT) earthquakes on September 10th, September 26th to 29th, and October 24th to November 2nd. On September 26th to 29th, hypocentral distribution of those VT shifted from 5 km deep to just beneath the crater. The highest number of VT earthquakes occurred on November 1st attaining 50 events, then followed by a swarm of B-type events, where the number reached 1437 events in a day. The volcanic activity peaked on November 3rd when seismic records became saturated, which then was preceded by a sharp increase of lake temperature and a sudden deflation of radial tilt. It suggests that the lava extrusion forming a lava dome was taking place.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v4i4.84The Tanjung Formation in Binuang and its surrounding area, situated in the eastern margin of the Barito Basin, overlies the Pre - Tertiary rock basement that consists of metamorphic, igneous, volcanic, and sedimentary rocks. The Tanjung Formation, which are Eocene in age, is unconformably overlain by the Plio - Pleistocene Dahor Formation. The Tanjung Formation consists of coarse-grained sandstone and conglomerate in the lower part, mudstone with interbedded coal seams and sandstone in the middle part, and intercalations of mudstone and fine-grained sandstone showing parallel laminations, wavy - lenticular, and flaser beddings, with some interbedded of medium - to coarse-grained sandstones in the upper part. The rock sequence is overlain conformably by the Claystone Member of the Tanjung Formation. Coal seams in the Tanjung Formation are found to be 50 to 350 cm thick. Megascopically, the coal is black, bright to bright banded, black in streak, conchoidal, and light. Petrographic analysis indicates that the vitrinite, in general, develops within the coal seams in all of the zones, whilst inertinite developes in the Eastern Zone (14.2 - 16.0 %). Vitrinite reflectance of coal samples in the Western Zone varies from 0.43 to 0.47 %, in the Middle Zone is 0.45 %, and in the Eastern Zone is 0.45 to 0.50 %. Rank of the coal seams in all of the zones are subbituminous B, according to the ASTM classification. The depositional environment of the coal bearing sedimentary rocks and coal seams in the Western and Middle Zones was a wet forest swamp facies (backmangrove to fresh water swamp) with upper to lower delta plain environment, in a transgressive condition; whereas in the Eastern Zone was a wet forest swamp (fresh water swamp) in a flood plain fasies, and a transgressive condition.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v4i4.85Karangtengah area in the southeastern part of Wonogiri Regency, is part of the Southern Mountains which is wholly composed of Tertiary volcanic rocks. Nevertheless, the eruptive centre of these volcanic rocks is still unknown. Based on an integrated study that comprises geomorphology, stratigraphy, structural geology, petrology, alteration, and mineralisation the existence of Karangtengah paleovolcano can be identified. The paleovolcano was formed below sea water, basaltic in composition, and it was part of a volcanic island arc during the time. Volcanogenic minerals are found in the central facies containing Fe, Cu, Pb, and Zn.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v4i4.86This paper presents the result of marine magnetic survey in Tomini Basin, Central Indonesia. On the basis of marine magnetic modeling, the main structural and geological elements of the basement of Tomini Basin are identified. At the centre of the basin, the up-doming feature points to an elevated magnetic susceptibility value. A geological model indicates that the entire basement of Tomini Basin is characterized by an oceanic-like crust with a basin axis at the centre nearly an east-west direction and suggests a rift-related graben.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v4i4.87The Yogyakarta earthquake of 27 May 2006 occurred at 05:54 WIB with magnitude of 6.4 Mw. It shaked the region of Bantul, Yogyakarta, Sleman and Klaten for about 60 seconds. A week after the earthquake, i.e. 4-8 June 2006, a GPS survey was conducted on 48 GPS points belonging to the 2nd order national cadastral control network located in the earthquake affected region. The 2nd survey was conducted on 21-26 January 2008. The surveys were conducted using 14 dual-frequency geodetic type receivers and the Bernese 5.0 scientific software was used for data processing. The results of GPS surveys show that horizontal components of the co-seismic deformation of earthquake are generally about 10-15 cm or smaller. The GPS-derived displacement vectors and depths of aftershocks suggested the existence of left-lateral fault, with strike and dip angles of about 48o and 89o, located at about 5-10 km east of Opak Fault which is usually drawn along the Opak River. GPS surveys also estimate that horizontal components of the post-seismic deformation of Yogyakarta earthquake are about 0.3 to 9.1 cm between June 2006 and June 2008. While the co-seismic deformation shows the sinistral displacement, the post-seismic deformation indicates the dextral displacement of the eastern region of Opak Fault (Gunung Kidul area) which is relative to a more stable western region.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v4i4.88Indications exhibiting active tectonic movements in Java occur in many places, characterized by unstable regions, such as active faults, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, etc. The results of researches conducted at several areas in West and Central Java on tectonic morphometry developments of river basins both in Quaternary deposits and Tertiary sediments exhibit a degree of active tectonic intensity. Such the researches are very important regarding to the spatial development design that is related to a region of active tectonism that should be well understood by planners for decision making mainly through comprehensive approach, in which the phenomena involved explaining the characteristics of the region as part of an active plate margin. Statistic approach as the chosen methodology had been utilized to gain meaningful conclusions through the verification of hypotheses, which are based on valid and reliable tested data obtained from the fields and satellite imagery. Results of regression-correlation tests between azimuths of river segment and lineaments in both chronostratigraphic systems mentioned earlier are significant with several large values of correlation coefficients r of no less than 0.9. On the other hand, results of t-tests are not a significant difference of means of bifurcation ratio (Rb) and drainage density (Dd) from many to river basins. The results of all tests have verified the effect of active tectonic control on the morphometry development process regarding to river segments and density of drainage patterns development in Tertiary and Quaternary deposits.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v5i1.89Sulawesi was formed during the Oligocene - Miocene collision between the Eurasian Plate and micro-continental fragments detached from the Indian-Australian Plate. The Sengkang Basin situated on the South Sulawesi Province, was formed by a major north northwest - south southeast trending fault system of the Walanae Fault Zone, which was followed by the formation of Late Neogene foreland basin and syn-orogenic deposition. The fault system separated the eastern and western parts of South Sulawesi and influenced the deposition during the Late Miocene to Quaternary. The lower part of the deposition unit consists of small carbonate reefs of the Tacipi Member occupying the East Sengkang Basin, where this shallow marine facies is intercalated within or overlies marine claystones representing the base of the Walanae Formation. The middle sequence is interpreted as a delta foreset consisting of the Samaoling and Beru Members. During the deposition of these two members, the northern part of the Sengkang Basin gradually changed from a tidal and deltaic to fluvial environments. Furthermore, the upper sequence of this sedimentary unit is dominated by fluvial deposits.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v5i1.90The eruption of Kelud Volcano in 2007 was started with an increase in the seismic activity on September 2007. It was ended with a lava dome formation inside the crater lake on 3 November 2007. This phenomenon showed the change of eruption behavior compared to the last eruption on February 1990 that was an explosive one. Result from the GPS observation method during three periods, which are: April, August, and October 2008 showed that the vector displacement on each measured point was affected dominantly by structural geology forces as a crustal stabilisation after the last phase of November 2007 eruption. There was also a minor displacement as the result of magma migration around the points that were close to the lava dome. The magma migration occurred in a relatively shallow depth and was associated with an aseismic zone. The deformation that occurred as a result of magma migration toward the surface was calculated to determine the magma supply and magma injected. The result then was compared to illustrate a mechanism of deformation during April – October 2008. The comparison of magma supply and magma injected within these periods showed that the inflation still occurred, but it was not supported by a surface manifestation. This inflation could be false because of data discontinuity, or it is actually a part of deflation trend.

Abstract

DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v5i1.91The interregional and global correlation of the Triassic biota of Indonesia was based on the review of previous workers and the author himself. Scythian Epoch (Early Triassic) in Timor is subdivided into Early Scythian with Ophiceras demisso, Meekoceras sp., Pseudomonotis subaurita, Gervillia subpannonica, and Myophoria sp., whilst Late Scythian is indicated by the presence of Owenites egrediens and Sibirites sp. The presence of Anisian Stage (Middle Triassic) in Misool is indicated by ammonite Beyrichites and bivalve Daonella lilintana. In Timor, this stage is pointed out by the presence of Joannites cymbiformis, Monophyllites wengensis, Protrachyceras archaelus, Daonella indica, Tracyceras cf. aon, Brochidium timorense, and Lima subpunctatoides. Terebellina mackayi found above Beyrichites-bearing bed in Misool has an age range from Anisian to Ladinian. It is concluded that the boundary between Anisian and Ladinian lies between beds with Beyrichites and Terebellina mackayi. Early Carnian Stage (Late Triassic) in Timor is indicated by the presence of Joanites cymbiformis, Waldhausenites sp., Miltites sp., and Halogyra cipitiensis; whereas Late Carnian is indicated by the presence of Cladicites crassestriatus and Tropites subbulatus. The presence of Halobia verbeeki, Pinacoceras parma, Neobetites sp., Parabetites sp., Malayites sp., Amarassites sp., and Halorites sp., indicates the Early Norian Stage, whilst the presence of Cladiscites tornatus, Cyrtopleurits malayicus, and Trachypleuraspidites sp. implies the Late Norian. The Rhaetian Stage in Timor contains Choristoceras indoaustralicum, whereas in Misool it contains Choristoceras sp. and Cochloceras sp.
