Sedimentology and Structural Geology of Ayer Hitam area, Johor

Geological study has been conducted at Ayer Hitam area, Johor which is mentioned before as the Gemas Formation from the previous studies by the geologist. However, there’s a claimed by Kamal Roslan (1990, 1996) who categorized that Ayer Hitam rock distribution is the same formation as Semantan Forma...
