Abstract

The study was conducted at three different localities in Batu Gading area near a small
town of Long Lama in 4th Division, Sarawak. The area is located at the latitude of 3°
45' to 3° 50' N and the longitude of 114° 30' E. The Batu Gading limestone is
considered as part from the Nummulitic Limestone and the Melinau Limestone which
were previously dated as Late Eocene and Early Miocene, respectively. The
Nummulitic Limestone has a total thickness of 28m and is conformably underlain by
the highly folded turbidite clastic sequence of the Kelalan Formation (?Late
Cretaceous) and overlain by 50m of the Fossilifereous Limestone (Early Miocene).
This limestone is disconformably overlain by clastic sequence of Setap Shale
equivalent.
