Geotourism is a responsible and sustainable type of tourism package development, equivalent to ecotourism, and other nature-based derivatives of tourism with deeper level considerations on local landscapes and the underlying geological foundation. The area was investigated from the perspective of tourism geoscience sub-discipline with a focus on nonextractive natural resources. Taking into consideration the beach alluvial plain, human community, the biophysical components and the mining artifacts, mineralization, geological formation, mining history and people lifestyle during the active mining period. Bukit Besi's rail transit system as example, with eleven stations, used to transport people, goods and ores between Bukit Besi and a coastal town of Dungun. Geology of Bukit Besi consist of dominance of shale, quartzite, limestone; intrusion rocks of granite and quartz vein, and metasediment rock. Iron mineralization occurs as a result of replacement in shale, limestone, granite and along the developed fractures. Further study relates the interconnection between iron mineralization and cultural of the residents. Mineralization had created the mining operation in Bukit Besi. History of mining process, life of Bukit Besi residents and railway is part of intrinsic information that make higher value of monument left in Bukit Besi in tourism context. Historical narration of the mining region goes beyond events related to human time frame but spans the geological history of the regions and the story of interactions between human and their environments. These form the basis for the creation of anthrobiogeoasset for regional planning of the region. Secondary utilization of the non-extractive natural resource should incorporate tourism and business components for sustainable geotourism package development of Bukit Besi, Malaysia ABSTRAK Geopelancongan adalah sejenis pembangunan pakej pelancongan yang bertanggungjawab dan mampan, setara dengan ekopelancongan dan pelancongan berasaskan alam semula jadi dengan pertimbangan tahap yang lebih mendalam terhadap landskap tempatan dan asas geologi yang mendasarinya. Kawasan ini dikaji daripada perspektif sub-disiplin geosains pelancongan dengan tumpuan kepada sumber alam bukan ekstraktif, dengan mengambil kira kawasan pantai, komuniti manusia, komponen biofizikal dan artifak perlombongan, permineralan, formasi batuan, sejarah perlombongan dan gaya hidup penduduk semasa tempoh perlombongan aktif. Sistem transit kereta Bukit Besi antaranya, dengan sebelas stesen, pernah digunakan untuk mengangkut orang, barang dan bijih di antara Bukit Besi dan Dungun. Geologi Bukit Besi terdiri daripada dominasi syal, kuarza, batu kapur; batu intrusi granit dan telerang kuarza dan batuan metasedimen. Pembentukan mineral besi adalah akibat penggantian syal, batu kapur dan granit di sepanjang rekahan yang terbentuk. Kajian lanjut menunjukkan hubung kait yang rapat antara pemineralan bijih besi dengan budaya penduduk. Pemineralan telah membentuk operasi perlombongan di Bukit Besi. Sejarah, proses perlom...
Satu kajian telah dilakukan untuk mengenalpasti bahan berwama hitam, yang telah dilaporkan sebagai bergrafit, di dalam batuan Syis Hawthornden disepanjang jalan bam Nilai-Sepang. Kajian mineralogi bahan yang dikatakan bergrafit ini dijalankan dengan menggunakan kaedah belauan sinar-X (XRD). Di samping itu penentuan unsur karbon, hidrogen, nitrogen dan sulfur juga telah dilakukan dengan menggunakan penganalisis automatik CHNS. Kajian mikroskopi cahaya balikan terhadap keratan juga dilakukan terhadap bahan berwama hitam yang dikatakan bergrafit ini. Hasil kajian menunjukkan kandungan utama bahan berwama hitam yang terdapat dalam batuan syis kuana bergrafit menunjukkan ialah karbon. Bagaimanapun bahan berkarbon ini tidak bersifat hablur. Berdasarkan keputusan kajian setakat ini, bahan yang berwarna hitam bukan mineral grafit.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
