Abstract

Rare earth elements (REE) are strategic material used in high-tech and clean energy devices. In Indonesia, REE contained in monazite, zircon, and xenotime minerals as accessories minerals in tin mining located in the granite tin belt of Riau Islands to Bangka Belitung. Singkep is one of the potential areas of REE because its location is in the granite tin belt. The goal of the study is to determine the REE prospects in Singkep Island. The method used by taking 25 pan concentrated samples on some tailing ex tin mining on the Singkep island. These samples were taken from each rock formation on Singkep Island in sequence from older to younger rocks formation, respectively. They are Permian Carboniferous of Bukit Duabelas quartzites, Permian Carboniferous of Persing Metamorphic Rocks, Triassic Muncung granite, Jurassic Tanjungbuku granite, Holocene swamps deposits and alluvium. Each sample of pan concentrated is divided into two parts for REE content and grain mineral analysis. All 25 samples were analyzed for REE content, while only 14 samples for the grain mineral. The results of REE content and grain mineral analysis indicate that the REE prospect area located in the tailings ex tin mining in the rock formation of the Muncung granite area. The highest concentration of lanthanum reached 20100 ppm, cerium 37100 ppm, yttrium 9872 ppm, and neodymium 2840 ppm in monazite, zircon, and allanite.

Abstract

Tunnel for Exploration of Uranium Eko Remaja Kalan (TEURK) in West Kalimantan, built-in 1980, is one of the uranium deposit research facilities in Indonesia. The tunnel penetrated Eko Remaja Hill along 618 m, from Remaja to TRK-7 access. Uranium mineralization in this area controlled by dense stockwork veins on metasilt and metasandstone rocks. The high-dense geological structures create some weak zones in the tunnel. These zones are potentially causing rocks and soil slides. Temporary supports made of wood-piles were installed in these zones to support the tunnel. Currently, these piles are not capable at the tunnel, so that rocks and soil slides occurred inside the tunnel. The research aimed to determine the quality of actual rock mass and determine the appropriate type of reinforcement to keep the tunnel safe. Schmidt hammer and scanline surveys on the unsupported zone (50–297 m and 355–538 m depth) carried out to collect the classification parameter data of Rock Mass Rating (RMR). The measurement result shows that the rock mass of TEURK on the depth has an RMR value of 52–71 (fair-good). Reinforcement recommendations for the tunnel are rock bolts and conventional shotcretes installation.

Abstract

Monazite mineral as associated mineral of tin mining in Bangka Belitung Islands contains light rare earth elements like Cerium (Ce), Lanthanum (La), and Neodymium (Nd). The objective of this study is to obtain the concentrates of rare earth carbonate through the precipitation process with sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) and determine the effect of concentration and volume of Na2CO3 on the precipitation recovery of Ce, La, and Nd. The preparation of the feed solution was carried out by following the monazite processing route using the alkali method includes the stages of decomposition, dissolution, and precipitation of radioactive elements. The highest precipitation recovery for Ce, La, and Nd are 10.84%, 7.81%, and 2.68% respectively in the use of Na2CO3 with a concentration of 30% wt and a volume of 55 mL.

Abstract

Monazite, as a by-product of tin mining, contains rare earth elements (REE) and radioactive elements like uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The monazite processing Research and Development at the Center for Nuclear Mineral Technology-National Nuclear Energy Agency (PTBGN-BATAN) has succeeded in separating REE as a hydroxide compound with an 85% recovery. The radioactive elements U and Th are each obtained as a product in the form of concentrated compounds of ammonium diuranate (ADU)/(NH4)2U2O7 and thorium hydroxide (Th(OH)4). In previous studies, the separation of U as ADU in monazite was carried out by the precipitation process using NH4OH solution. In this research, U will be precipitated as an ADU using NH3 gas reagents to obtain precipitation optimum conditions. Precipitation feed in the form of (U, Th, REE) sulfate solution derived from the monazite processing using the alkali or base method, which includes decomposition using NaOH, partial dissolution using HCl, and total dissolution using H2SO4. The parameters studied include the effect of NH3 gas flow rate, process temperature, and contact time on U recovery. The results showed that on the static pH-7 condition, the optimum state of U precipitation using NH3 gas is at NH3 gas flow rate of 150 ml/minutes, processing temperature of 30oC, and 15 minutes contact time with precipitation recovery of U 100%, Th 99.97%, and REE 99.93%. These results indicate that U has been taken entirely but still mixed with other elements, which are Th and REE, so that further research is needed to obtain U with high purity on optimum pH condition.

Abstract

Upflow zone in the geothermal system is a zone with high permeability that serves as a path for geothermal fluid to ascend to the surface, which usually marked with fumarole at the surface. Mount Tampomas, West Java, is a potential geothermal site with some thermal manifestation in the form of hot springs, but no fumarole or steam vent exists. The up-flow or the permeable zone is difficult to identify. 222Rn isotope is a radiogenic isotope that its concentration in soil gas can infer primary permeability as well as secondary permeability (structure). Series of 222Rn measurement in soil gas has been performed from 56 sampling positions around Mount Tampomas to evaluate 222Rn anomaly by a statistical method and its relation with high permeability area, geological structure, and geothermal manifestation. The measurement and statistical evaluation results show that 222Rn concentration clustered into low (background), high, and anomaly concentration. The background values in 16 places are below 825 Bq/m3, while a high level in 32 areas between 825–7688 Bq/m3 and anomaly in 8 places above 7688 Bq/m3. Most of the locations with high and anomaly 222Rn concentrations did not locate near a structure lineament. All measurements near hot springs have a high 222Rn and anomaly. Ciseupan hot spring is an exception which may indicate that the hot spring is discharged laterally (outflow). Furthermore, there is no indication of a correlation between 222Rn with the elevation of the measurement location. The process of 222Rn transfer from the reservoir to the surface is considered by the geothermal reservoir's gas carrier mechanism through permeable zones.

Abstract

Hypocenter relocation is a method used to get precise earthquake parameters. They will be useful for an advanced tectonic study like seismic hazard assessment in an area. The hypocenter relocation using a 3-D velocity model will theoretically obtain better results than a 1-D velocity model because the earth subsurface model is closed with a 3-D model. Some 767 earthquakes recorded by DOMERAPI, MERAMEX, BMKG, and BPPTKG networks used in this research. They were relocated by using a 3-D velocity model and analyzed for seismotectonic study in Central Java area and its surroundings. The result of hypocenter relocation using a 3-D velocity model is successfully detecting some tectonic features more clearly like columnar structure related to the backthrust structure at the south of Kebumen. The west-east vertical cross-section crossing the Opak fault indicates the dip of the fault plane is directing to the east. This study could not identify the double seismic zone, which was detected by the previous research. Some volcano-tectonic (VT) earthquakes related to the shallow magma activity of Mount Merapi also are detected clearly in this study.
