Abstract:Late Cenozoic basaltic rocks in Nang Rong Columnar Jointed Basalts in southern Khorat Plateau are among the greatest columnar basalts in Thailand as famous geoheritage sites. This work aims to characterize and evaluate the post-quarrying area by field investigation, petrography, geochemistry, and geological engineering. A petrographical study determines these basalts as olivine basalts, presenting porphyritic texture with olivine microphenocryst. Geochemical characteristics indicate these basalts were alkaline… Show more
“…), and invertebrates (gastropods, graptolite, bivalves, ammonite, foraminifera, radiolarian, crinoid, brachiopod, trilobite, etc.). Nowadays, Thailand’s tectonic landforms are very complex due to the influence of multi-microplate boundaries and their location in Southern Asia, presenting numerous georesources (metal and non-metal ore deposits) and geomorphological highlights i.e., mountains, cliffs, waterfalls, caves, rivers, islands, rock pillars, potholes, extinct volcanoes, and coastal landforms ( Singtuen and Won-In, 2020 ; Singtuen et al., 2021 , 2022 ; Singtuen and Junjuer, 2022 ; Singtuen and Anumart, 2022 ). …”
