Indoneisa consists of part of Laurasia (Sumatra, Borneo,
Java) and part of Gondwana (SE Sulawesi, Banggai
Sula, Maluku, Timor, Papua)

Formation of the Indonesia Archipelago starting
from Late Jurassic :
Part of Indonesia consist of Sumatra (Laurasia) and
Sula, New Guinea, Argo Block, Banda (Gondwana).
![Page 11: GENERAL PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM … PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM INTRUSIVE DEPOSITS IN BANGGAI-SULA ... Formation of the Indonesia Archipelago starting ... Philippine.

Banda and Argo blocks apart from Australia and
moved to the north .

Banda Block (South West Banda) and Argo Block (East Java and
West Sulawesi) had moved far enough to the north separated
from Australia
![Page 13: GENERAL PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM … PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM INTRUSIVE DEPOSITS IN BANGGAI-SULA ... Formation of the Indonesia Archipelago starting ... Philippine. North Sulawesi Arm](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030421/5aa851fb7f8b9a8b188b66d2/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
SWB (South West Banda) and EJWS (East
Java West Sulawesi) move to the north and
getting closer to SE Asia
![Page 14: GENERAL PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM … PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM INTRUSIVE DEPOSITS IN BANGGAI-SULA ... Formation of the Indonesia Archipelago starting ... Philippine. North Sulawesi Arm](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030421/5aa851fb7f8b9a8b188b66d2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SWB and EJWS joined to Southeast Asia, forming an area called Sunda land.
Java and Borneo appear as a result of this merger .
Banda block ( SWB ) disappear and formed Borneo, while block Argo
( EJWS ) also disappear and formed Java, West Sulawesi and South Sulawesi .
Banda block ( SWB ) is missing and formed Kalimantan , while block Argo ( EJWS ) is also missing and formed Java , West Sulawesi and South Sulawesi .

India move rapidly to the north and its position was almost
pounding ASIA. Australia move to the north and Philippines arise
from the east. Borneo almost complete and North Sulawesi Arm
appear because of this interaction.
![Page 16: GENERAL PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM … PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM INTRUSIVE DEPOSITS IN BANGGAI-SULA ... Formation of the Indonesia Archipelago starting ... Philippine.

Islands around Philippines and
South China Sea arise cause of
complex interaction in
Philippine. North Sulawesi Arm
move to the West Sulawesi
Arm.
The movement of Australia ,
India and oceanic plate to the
north resulted in a change of
the position of Sundaland , the
rotation of Java , Sulawesi and
Kalimantan .

India continues move to the north,
crashed into Asia.
Australia move to the north and
then attached to the Sunda land.

Formed in this periods .

Situation 5 million years ago,
similar to now .
Since 5 million years ago until now, it seems not many major
changes occur . Of course there are small changes such as
formation of new islands or loss of old islands , formation of
new fault , and so on .

GENERAL PROCPECTING IN BANGGAI SULA MICRO CONTINENT
![Page 21: GENERAL PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM … PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM INTRUSIVE DEPOSITS IN BANGGAI-SULA ... Formation of the Indonesia Archipelago starting ... Philippine. North Sulawesi Arm](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030421/5aa851fb7f8b9a8b188b66d2/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The Banggai-Sula Microcontinent is interpreted as being a fragment of the Australia - New Guinea Continent that became detached during late Mesozoic times.
This is the result of collisions with subduction system along the eastern boundary of the Sunda Shelf that produce tectonic framework of Eastern Indonesia.
The island is believed to have originated from the northern boundary of the Australian Continent separated at the end of the Mesozoic or until Paleogene, and pushed along the Great Fault Sorong caused by the movement of the Philippine Sea Plate.
The basement of BANGGAI SULA MICRO CONTINENT is Carboniferous metamorphic rocks, intruded by Permian-Triassic Banggai granites associated with acid volcanic rocks of similar age.
The Permian-Triassic Banggai granites is a part of Tasmania granites Line so it is considered a potential for uranium intrusive deposits.

Purpose
• General prospecting has been done in Banggai-Sula Micro Continents by using radiometric and geochemical mapping. The purpose is to localize the possibilities of uranium occurrences related to the intrusive rocks of the Permian to Triassic granites which are located in Banggai Sula micro continents but do not closed the opportunities of other deposits.

Location of Radiometric and Geochemical Anomalies
![Page 34: GENERAL PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM … PROSPECTING FOR URANIUM INTRUSIVE DEPOSITS IN BANGGAI-SULA ... Formation of the Indonesia Archipelago starting ... Philippine.

DISCUSSION
• Result of general prospecting obtained 8 locations anomalies that consists of 2 anomalies located in metamorphic rocks complex, 1 anomaly in Volcanic Rocks and 5 anomalies in granites.
• Two anomalies in metamorphic rocks consists of radiometric anomaly in gneiss (400 c/s) and U content in Quartzite (28.14 ppm).
• One anomaly in volcanic rocks is radiometric anomaly in tuff (270 c/s).
• Five anomalies in Granites consists of radiometric, U content in granite, U content in stream sediment and U content in heavy minerals.
• One of five anomalies (ANO.6) in granite is interpreted to be related to the intrusive uranium deposits. Radiometric reading more than 1000 c/s SPP 2NF in the rocks usually give indication occurrences of uranium mineralization like in Sumatra and Borneo island.

CONCLUSION
• Result of the general prospecting in Banggai Sula, It was found 8 radiometric and geochemical anomalies, located in complex metamorphic rocks, Banggai granites and Mangole Volcanic Rocks. One anomaly in Banggai granite (ANO.6) are interpreted to be related to the intrusive uranium deposits.
• To know more clearly the occurrences of uranium deposits in these area, it was needed detail geological, radiometric and geochemical mapping especially in several anomalies areas.
