The Sabah Complex - Alithodemic unit ( a new name for the Chert-Spilite Formation and its ultramafic association) BASIRJASIN Jabatan Geologi, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, 43600 Bangi, Selangor Darul Ehsan.

Abstract: The Chert-Spilite Formation has been used as a formal lithostratigraphic unit for a long time. The naming ofthis formation has resul ted in some confusion. Geological investigation ofseveral new outcrops provides new information. Here, I would like to propose Sabah Complex as a lithodemic unit to replace the Chert-Spilite Formation. This complex is not only to replace the Chert-Spilite Formation but to include its ultramafic association. The Sabah Complex is composed of peridotite, serpentinite, basalt, spilite, pillow lava and chert sequence. The occurrence of radiolaria in the chert enable more precise age determination. The age ofthe chert is Early Cretaceous. The mafic-ultramafic volcanic rocks must be older than Early Cretaceous, most probably Late Jurassic.

The aims of this paper are to revise this formation and to propose a new appropriate sediments and mafic igneous rocks, the word name in accordance with the present "Formation" is not applicable here. Therefore, this unit is not a lithostratigraphic unit.

  • Active Tectonics in Sabah – Seismicity and Active Faults Felix Tongkul
    Bulletin of the Geological Society of Malaysia, Volume 64, December 2017, pp. 27 – 36 Active tectonics in Sabah – seismicity and active faults Felix Tongkul Natural Disaster Research Centre (NDRC), Universiti Malaysia Sabah, 88400, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah Email address: [email protected] Abstract: The location of Sabah near the boundaries of three major tectonic plates, the Eurasian, India-Australia and Philippine-Pacific plates, makes it prone to seismic activities. Sabah is currently under a WNW-ESE compressive stress regime due to the effect of plate movements as the Philippine-Pacific plate move westward at the rate of about 10 cm/ year against the southeast moving Eurasian plate at the rate of about 5 cm/year. The WNW-ESE compression is being accommodated by NE-SW trending active thrust faults and NW-SE trending active strike-slip faults present all over Sabah. Evidence of active faults based on geomorphological features, such as linear structures associated with triangular facets, stream offsets, mud volcanoes and hot springs are widespread in Sabah.The WNW-ESE compression resulted in regional folding or warping of the upper crust to produce an uplifted belt trending NE-SW in Western Sabah, currently occupied by the Crocker-Trusmadi Range. The warping and uplift of the upper crust is thought to be driving extensional tectonics, marked by the presence of NE-SW trending active normal faults along the crest and flanks of the Crocker- Trusmadi Range anticlinorium. At least six elongate Quaternary graben-like basins (Tenom, Keningau, Tambunan, Ranau, Timbua and Marak-Parak) occur along the crest of the anticlinorium.

  • How the Road Building Town of Telupid Will Be Troubled by the Pan Borneo Highway
    WINDOWS INTO HISTORY FIVE: HOW THE ROAD BUILDING TOWN OF TELUPID WILL BE TROUBLED BY THE PAN BORNEO HIGHWAY www.humanshabitatshighways.org Windows into History Five: How the Road Building Town of Telupid will be Troubled by the Pan Borneo Highway 20 October 2020 This is the final section of our five part history of how Sabah’s roads have been developed since the British times; from this reflection on the past, we hope to learn for the future of road development in Sabah, particularly with regard to the Pan Borneo Highway. This article focuses on the birth and growth of Telupid, a town whose history is the history of road building. The town didn’t even exist before the first road linked Sabah’s east and west coasts in the 1960s. The first big building in the town was the facilities for Australian-supported Malaysia Australia Roads Project Project (MARP), and the first government offices were made in that former project HQ. With the new road came people - both migrants from crowded areas along the west coast, and locals who moved next to the road from scattered villages previously along the rivers. The population grew, the economy grew, the road improved, and Telupid even became a district. The people of Telupid love the road. The old MARP signs with the kangaroo on are still celebrated. In 1960 Sabah’s Legislative Council accepted the report by Sargent featured in the last history of roads article, and, under the Sabah Development Plan 1965-1970, implemented it as the foundation for Sabah’s transformative advancement through the 1960s and Merdeka.

  • Dusun Tatana Ethnic in Sabah, Malaysia: a Preliminary Study A.S

Hardy Shafiia*, Solehah Ishakb, Hazman Hassanc, Mohamed Ghouse a a Nasuruddin , Mumtaz Begum * Corresponding author: [email protected] aSchool of The Arts, Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM), 11800 Minden, Penang, Malaysia, [email protected] bFaculty of Film, Theatre and Animation, Universiti Technologi MARA, Selangor, Malaysia cCentre for General Studies, College of Arts and Sciences, Universiti Utara Malaysia (UUM), 06010 Sintok, Kedah, Malaysia Abstract http://dx.doi.org/10.15405/epsbs.2016.08.16 The belief system and cosmology of the Dusun Tatana ethnic which formulate the existence of Kinorohingan or Kinoingan (God or Creator of universe), is central in understanding the practice of rituals among this community. The word Tatana which means ‘earth people’ forms one of the 79 sub-ethnics of Kadazandusun in Sabah who are found mainly in the Kuala Penyu division of West Sabah, Malaysia. Tatana has a long history and tradition which are embedded not only in their myths, legends and oral stories but also in their ritual ceremonies and healings. These traditional/ cultural and ritual activities are considered as trajectories of their wisdom, maturity as well as about their cosmology and the existence of life. However, comprehensive studies on the Tatana’s rituals such as talang pongoh, mikajang, mamanta and barasik are very much lacking. This research traces the roles played by the babalian within their community by exploring and analysing their roles, methods and healing paraphernalia in several community rituals. Ultimately it is shown that these traditional rituals have become unimportant and the babalian’s roles have also waned as the Dusun Tatana community adapt to lifestyle changes and religion.

  • Significance of Radiolarian' Cherts from the Chert-Spilite Formation, Telupid, Sabah
    Gltal. Soc. Malaysia, Bulletin 31, July 1992; pp. 67-83 Significance of radiolarian' cherts from the Chert-Spilite Formation, Telupid, Sabah BASIR JASIN Jabatan Geologi Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Abstract: , Ch~rt in Telupid area is found associated with basalt, serpentinite and peridotite. This rock association may represent a part of the ophiolite sequence. The chert occurs as thinly bedded chert interbeds with siliceous shale. The chert is red to reddish brown in colour. The chert contains abundant skeletons of radiolaria. The radiolaria were retrieved, from their siliceous matrix by leaching with hydrofluoric acid. Several species of radiolaria were identified and their age was determined. Geochemical analysis of bedded radiolarian chert exhibits very high percentage of silica (more than 75%). Most of the chert consists of biogenic silica., The low content of AI.Os and CaO suggests that the chert was deposited very far away from sources of terigenous detritus and below the calcite compensation depth.

The predominant rocks in the study area are peridotite, serpentinite, gabbro, basalt, pillow basalt and reddish-brown chert. The aim of the research is to establish the age and environment of deposition of radiolarian chert. Eighteen chert samples were collected from two new outcrops along the Kunak-Semporna road. Fifty six species of radiolarians were indentified and 40 species are used for age determinations. The radiolarians are divided into three assemblages. Assemblage I (Aptian to Albian) is characterized by the occurrence of Sticomitra simplex, Crucella bossoensis, Xitus clava, Dictyomitra communis, Hiscocapsa asseni, Obeliscoites vinassai, Rhopalosyringium fossile, Paronaella grapevinensis, Stichomitra communis, Xitus spicularius, Phangalites perpicuus, Triactoma cellulosa and Becus horridus.

    PT Foundation (www.pffmalaysia.org) MSM Poz Programme (www.msmpoz.com) View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Repository@USM Preliminary Research Findings from Trade Ceramic Archaeological Sites in Sabah *Nurulnatasha Azman and Jeffrey Abdullah *Centre for Global Archaeological Research, Universiti Sains Malaysia Abstract Ceramics is one of the most important merchandise in the past. In Sabah, many trade ceramic wares were found in archaeological sites. The study of trade ceramics in Sabah and its distribution enables the types of ceramic wares were identified and their distribution by region in Sabah. Therefore, in order to achieve this objective, whole sites with the imported ceramic in Sabah has been divided into the following four main areas including east, west, north and interior of Sabah. Results from the analysis showed that most of ceramics that were found came from China, Europe, Netherlands, Vietnam and Thailand. While the age of ceramics is from the Song dynasty (10-13 century AD), Yuan (13-14 century AD), Ming (14 -17 century AD) and Ching (17-20 century AD), Thailand (14-15 century AD), Vietnam (14-15 century AD), Europe and the Netherlands (19-20 century AD). All of this discovery shows that the distribution of the ceramic sites may have been connected with other countries via trading activities especially in the coastal areas in Sabah Keyword: Sabah, trade, ceramic 1. Introduction Reviews archaeological sites, especially by researchers such as Harrison and Harrison (1971), Baszley and Bilcher Bala, (2009) and Sabah Museum has found many archaeological sites in the state.
