DOI: 10.17014/ijog.v6i1.113Result of grain size analysis of the sea floor sediments from the study area indicates four sediment types, those are silt, sandy silt, silty sand, and sand. The silt unit has the widest distribution that is around 127.2 km2, sandy silt 12.65 km2, sand 1.176 km2, and silty sand 0.44 km2. Result of gold and silver content analysis from some selected samples indicates that the highest gold and silver amount are at PMK-08 location in northern part of the study area with gold content of 0.21 ppm and silver 13.36 ppm; both are silt sediment types. The highest gold and silver content occur within medium - coarse sediments containing subrounded grains of quartz and pyrite, at northern part of the study area. The presence of silver and gold is suggested to be controlled by a north-south longshore current pattern. The source of sediments from Sambas Besar River follows the longshore current, e.g. in northern estuary from south to north, and at southern estuary from north to south direction.
Sampit Bay is one of many main gates to enter the Central Kalimantan Province, because there is Mentaya River Mouth as an access to the Sampit Harbour as a main port at its province. Until now, the Sampit Bay only used as anchored for big ships waiting turn to enter Sampit Port. The methods used are coastal characteristic mapping, seafloor surficial sediment sampling, grain size analyses, echosounding, and current measurement. Sampit bay has sandy coast, sand of sea floor surficial sediment, and gradation of sea floor morphology which is suitable for sea port location. On the other hand, the velocity of the surface and midle current in the bay ranging between 0.1-0.3 m/second which is dominated by south east direction. The mentioned velocity is under threshold for safety ship anchoraged. Beside that, most of the bay open to the wind from west and south west facing Java Sea, where the velocity ranging from 5-13 m/second which is included into weak catagories. Location is recommended to be sea port candidate in the south of Ujung Pandaran.Keywords: Sampit Bay, port location, coastal characteritistic, sea floor surficial sediment, current velocity. Teluk Sampit adalah salah satu gerbang utama memasuki Propinsi Kalimantan Tengah, karena tempat bermuaranya Sungai Mentaya yang merupakan akses menuju ke pelabuhan Sampit sebagai pelabuhan utama di provinsi tersebut. Selama ini teluk Sampit hanya digunakan sebagai tempat lego jangkar kapal-kapal besar yang menunggu giliran untuk berlabuh di Pelabuhan Sampit. Metode yang digunakan adalah pemetaan karakteristik pantai, pengambilan contoh sedimen permukaan dasar laut, analisis besar butir, pemeruman, dan pengukuran arus. Teluk Sampit memiliki jenis pantai berpasir dan sedimen permukaan dasar laut pasir serta morfologi dasar laut yang bergradasi cukup layak untuk lokasi pelabuhan. Disamping itu kecepatan arus permukaan dan menengah di teluk tersebut berkisar antara 0,1-0,3 meter/detik dengan arah dominan ke arah tenggara, dimana kecepatan arus tersebut masih dibawah ambang batas untuk keamanan kapal berlabuh. Disamping itu, sebagian besar teluk tersebut terbuka terhadap hembusan angin arah barat dan tenggara yang berhadapan dengan laut Jawa dimana kecepatan angin yang bertiup antara 5-13 meter/detik dan termasuk dalam katagori lemah. Lokasi yang paling layak untuk lokasi pelabuhan adalah sebelah selatan Ujung Banaran. Kata kunci: Teluk Sampit, lokasi pelabuhan, karakteristik pantai, sedimen permukaan dasar laut, kecepatan arus.
The study area is fluviatile deposit which consists of yellow to light gray loose sand, iron oxide, and kaoline spreading from the land shallowing to sea direction. Concentration grade for determining of gold and silver content used a total analysis of the hot mixture HF-HNO3-HClO4 with measurements "Atomic Absorption Spectrofotometry".(AAS). Highest concentration of gold and silver found at sample GCTS-31 that gold 0.096 ppm and silver 2.284 ppm, in muddy sand type sediment, at 3.1 meters depth and arround 1,250 meter length from coast line. While the lowest concentration of the gold was 0.025 ppm found at sample GBTS 14 in very fine sand type sediment located at 1.07 meter depth and approximately 320 meters length from coast line. The lowest concentration of the silver was founded at sample GBTS 25 that is 0.860 ppm in sandy mud sediment type located at 2.49 meters depth and approximately 3,000 meters length from the coast line. The gold placer is may derived from weathering of Pambuang Formation which spreads in the west and north of Sampit Bay, and transported by Mentaya River and longshore current system.
