Abstract

Magnetic survey was conducted at Sungai Batu area, with the aim of identify an ancient river boundary in a non destructive manner. The survey performed using G-856 proton precession magnetometer; the magnetic data was processed by utilizing Microsoft Excels and Surfer8 software. Magnetic residual value of <0 nT indicated as marine alluvium and >0 nT indicated as original land. The ancient river was indicated by marine alluvium and flows from north-west to east. © ejge.
