Abstract

Bogor Trough in the West Java are typified by turbidity deposits with the source are mostly characterized by volcanoclastic materials from the southern area. The Trough actually receipt the sediment from both volcanoclastic materials from the south and continental source from the north. But, the discussions of sediments in term of composition and   temporal variation are rare to be reported, especially the sediments from the north. This manuscript intends to discuss the temporal variation in detrital compositional and depositional facies of the Neogene sediments that delivered from the north (i.e., Sundaland) into the Bogor Trough, which is represented by Miocene Jatiluhur Formation.

A total of 36 selected samples have been taken for identifying the minerals using a polarization microscope. Modal analysis of the Gazzi-Dickinson method was applied for this provenance study of sandstones samples, which are consisting largely of quartz and feldspar, then sedimentary rock and volcanic rock fragments, glaucony, mud chips and skeletal fragments.

Sundaland, a continental block highland area in the north, is interpreted to have been the provenance of sediments of the Jatiluhur Formation, which is also considered to be the source area for the Paleogene sediments. Granitic igneous rocks are interpreted as the source of dominance of monocrystalline quartz grains, or the product of long-distance transport of polycrystalline quartz from metamorphic rocks

But, however late Miocene samples (upper part of formation) represent that the size and amount of glauconite grains are increasing, and texturally mud supported. Volcanic rocks materials are also observed. The upper part of Jatiluhur Formation records the starvation of sediment discharge into the basin, which has been also promoted for development of carbonate reef Klapanunggal Formation in the self-margin setting, and suggesting that the basin have directly received or indirectly some contemporaneous volcanic provenances sediment from the southern area.
