FAULT-RELATED DOLOMITIZATION WITH HYDROTHERMAL WALL-ROCK ALTERATION IN KINTA VALLEY, PERAK, MALAYSIA.

Thick Devonian-Permian carbonates were deposited on a shallow marine before being uplifted by granitic intrusion during Triassic. These dolomite bodies are commonly found in Kinta Limestone. After the granite intrusion near the Kinta Valley, the residual fluid rose upward through the structure forme...
