Gold and tin mineralization in Peninsular Malaysia occur as several juxtaposed and overlapping belts (Fig. 2), including the Western Tin Belt, the Central Gold Belt, and the Eastern Tin Belt (Rajah et al. 1977; Schwartz et al. 1995; Yeap 1993, 2000; Ariffin and Hewson 2007). Mineralization in Central Belt is dominated by gold.
The Central Gold Belt of Malaysia's gold mineralisation is assumed to be genetically related to the suture . The unit consists of cherts interspersed with a few sandstone layers and cut by quartz veins. The radiolarian occurrences in the black bedded cherts date back to the Late Devonian period . North of the BRSZ Unit 2 is the Karak ...

The Ulu Sokor gold deposit is one of the most famous and largest gold deposits in Malaysia and is located in the Central Gold Belt. This deposit consists of three major orebodies that are related ...
Based on stratigraphical, geochemical, geochronological and structural differences, Peninsular Malaysia is divided into three geological belts (see Fig. 1): the Western Tin Belt; the Central Gold Belt; and the Eastern Tin Belt, that are bounded by major fault zones (Hutchison, 1989; Khoo & Tan, 1983). The BRSZ is an important …

Results indicate that main faults strike along 340° to 350° that are intersected by many shear or lateral fault zones are a high potential zone for gold mineralization in the Central Gold...
The Central Gold Belt is a 20km wide, a major N-S trend of gold mining districts that shows the important role of hydrothermal fluids in the development of gold in Peninsular Malaysia, especially in the North Pahang and Kelantan area (Ariffin & Hewson, 2007; Yeap,
The Tersang, Selinsing, and Penjom gold deposits are located at the east of the Bentong-Raub Suture Zone in the State of Pahang, Central Malaysia. The Tersang gold deposit is hosted in sandstone, breccia and felsic rhyolite of probably Triassic in age. LA ICP-MS U-Pb zircon dating of the host sandstone at Tersang indicates a possible age that ranges from …
The Central Gold Belt is a highly prospective region for gold with a variety of mineralization types and has a long history of widespread small-scale alluvial gold mining throughout Peninsular ...

Figure 1. Gold occurrences in the Central Belt of Peninsular Malaysia. From the nature of the occurrences gold mineralzations in the Central Belt can be divided into three main types: 1) Gold in quartz veins, 2) Gold in massive-sulphide, and 3) Gold in skarn. Gold in quartz veins is the most widespread,
tral Gold Belt, and Western Tin Belt that are bounded by major fault zones (Hutchison, 1975; Khoo and Tan, 1983)(Fig. 1). The Central Belt of the Peninsular Malaysia is well-known as the Gold Belt (Scrivenor, 1931; Yeap, 1993). The Central Gold Belt (CGB) consists mainly of Permo-Triassic,low-grademetasediments,deeptoshallowmarineclas-
Many gold mines and prospects in the Peninsular Malaysia are located in the Central Gold Belt (CGB) (Arif fi n, 2012; Arif fi n and Hewson, 2007; Scrivenor, 1931; Yeap, 1993). Gold mineralization ...
The Bentong‐Raub Suture Zone (BRSZ) of Peninsular Malaysia is one of the major structural zones in Sundaland, Southeast Asia. It forms the boundary between the Gondwana‐derived Sibumasu terrane in the west and Sukhothai Arc in the east. The BRSZ is genetically related to the sediment‐hosted/orogenic gold deposits associated with the …
Geological Survey of Malaysia, Tiger Lane, Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia Abstract: The Malay Peninsula can be divided into three distinct mineral belts, viz. the Western Tin Belt, the Central Gold and Base Metal Belt, and the Eastern Tin Belt. The major granitoid bodies are concentrated in these belts, especially the Western and Eastern Belts.
