Any investigators propose improvements of the methods and some of these have-already been Widely applied, e.~., the examination of a limited grade, and court 300 or more grains per slide. this refinement of the method of excitation may be useful for sedimentary A. studies, ice., an accurate descry ?- Clan of the ~r.ine=~ content, structure and texture of the sediments. The sedimentary petrologist, however, is not so much interested in the exact mineral composition of sediments. He wonts to determine the source, ~;eo ~ra~hical and strati~ra~hical distribution of sedimentary grouts and therefore only needs those characteristics of a sediment which are related to these features.

Exhibi t G . . _ __ 105 _- In1;o~retation of Bea~ tori floral Data . , ~ , ~ Tho main object a sedimentary petrologist must have in anew when he starts to e:~:amine sedim - ~s is to find those characteristics which will serve hum as clues to their source and geograph~ca:t ~d stratigraphic~ distribution. Other particulars in which a petrologist may be interested, viz. ~ cures in the mineralogical composition due to ph,,~rsic~ and ck-=i Cal coalitions during transport, deposition and after deposition, can only be determined ~f ~t ~s knossn: that the sediments in question nave been derived from the same s~ce or sources. Consequently, the first characteristics we have to deter~ni;ae are those related to the origin of the sewing. We know, however, that the mineral composition of ~ sediment Amy bo altered by various physical iOtiU=GBS. The marination of one sample of ~ sodimmiary coral Ox may thus show a somewhat alte:~d picture ~f the che~actoristics of its source.

It must be boxne in mind, however, that even if samples are taken close together' they may be derived froTa diet souroes. This feature has been o~roriookeS by may investigators, generally owing to the fact . that they did not examine Cede on a r~ioml scum. This loaf to the assumption that changes in ~neralogica1 cocnposi~on were generally Mused by differences ~n grain size and by shortcc~mi$~gs of the laboratory methods used. =ter the e~:amination of hundreds of samples derived trom one source, however, we have found mat deviations in the mineralogical colon - sition due to di~e:re:~ces in g;rax~ s~ze and laboratory netbods Jie within narrow baits.

In order to distinguish these "mixed"' sediments, the situation of this slipup of sediments with respect to -their sources and the:mine:ralogical composition of the eolJ.rce materials must be known. This is especially important if heavy minerals are to bee used for correlation of st~ti- graphic zones and we wish to know whether the mineralogical composition of mineral zones =11 remain constant in a certain area or not. Thence fore it must be known wI:other the $edunents present in such a zone have been derived frcm one source (original sediments),. ox from dil'£erent; sources (mixed sediments). In the latter case the Dipteral composition will change ~n tm or more directions, ~r~.,~ ire the direction of each.source separately. In the former case their composition will nof alter towards the ~:'urce a~ in i;he.opposite direction it only =11 change it foreign Interim has been admixed.

For recent edits the ~.i:ne~1 composition of the origi;~a3L materials con easily be detrained, as .sedinonbs can be collected near each source. :,vr Tertiary sediments the sconces and their mineralogical compositions are not known and may samples will delve to be examined frox.n the borders of the basin, before the places cohere original material ontexed the basin arts i'ound.

Hornblende-r~ch associations With lOOfo hornblende and White occur in the ok layers in section I above GO . In the other sections only thin layers have been found. A volcanic area occurring south of section ~ must be the source of the associatiaDrt. After the origin of the original mineral associations has been found, their geographical distribution throughout the basin can be deterr~in- ed ~ Tf, for instance, we take the time ~ntervaI between A and D it is known that staurolite-z' rcon associations were supplied from the South, epidote~riah from the West and andalusite-=ch associations from the North. Zone A-D in secti on II, howovor ~ contains ep~dote-staurol~te associations. The percentage of erudite in succeeding samples varies considerably. As the original opidote association is tree of staurolite, the epidote-staurolito association roust be a mixture of the staurolite- zircon and the ep~dote association. ~ these refixtures may contain varying; proportions of both components Ire different layers, the percentages of epidote, staurolite am Or con will also crazy. At two points in zone AD (section II) pure staurol~te-z~:rcon associations were found, viz.,. near C. These thin pure staurol~te layers represent wedges of the Staurol~te zone of section ~ (:L-D1) which dies out towards the North and Vest. In the St~roli~ zone of section T (4-D1) a few thin layers containing opidote were found. These are wedges of the antidote zone of the western area.

Tile ep~dot¢ percentage Between :D and E varies from 0-60%, which -at be the remit of the refixing of zircon-rich and epidote-~,ch associations in ditterent proportions. Thin layers free of epidote are present and repres~e~t wedges of the zircons rich zone of section T. This again points to an: inte.rti~gerir~ of two mineral zones, this time the Zirco~-.rich and the Antidote zones. . Other "mixed"' sediments occurring in the sections IT And IRIS e.g., in the :E;pidote-andalusite-hor~ler~de zone (above G am Go. respectively) can be e2~\ai~ed in a similar way. This proves the assumption:made above, viz., that near the source pure mineral association (derived from this sa.urce) occur and that fu~- ther inside the basin "mi~:ed" associations consisting of mated don different Sources are present. :F¢rthe~ore, it has beers found float mind zones intert~nger WIth1 each other. . . ~ i, The vertical and horizontal distribution of heavy mineral associa- tions in the :East Java Tertiary is .~i~.t.an ;e;i~:ceptional case.; The same [eaters have been found in every area so far steadied for the heaver Minerals and they are of major importance for the interpretation of heavy mineral data.

In a strat~graphical or `3eographica1 sequence of sediments the following changes in the mineral Composition can be distinguish~L: `) Chance Vari ations ~ ~ _.__ Owen to physical and chemical conditions during transportation and deposition, no sediment cantultil the ideal of beers entirelyhomo~ geneous and deviations front the average composition will Ways be found. The larger such deviations are, the less frequently they are encountered. The observations made, therefore, approximate to the average. The more sables are coned Britain a certain area or stratigraphic~ section, the better the cause of such deviations con be judged. These variations anal those due to the counting method have . . . been called "Chance Variations". These changes of the percentages lie within narrow limits, as can easily be seen from fig. 1, egg., SOCtiQl1 I, G~-~, section lI, BEG and above H. and section III, D2-~2. B) Pro~ncia:L Alterations latest changes in mineral content are preserve in areas which are situated at the [border of two or more sedimentary Metrological provi:n¢es. During the deposition the area in mention fell repeatedly within the spheres of intlum¢e of two or more supplies of ~neralog' ca;Lly different material, wretch resulted in an intert~ngering of the heavy :mane~als from the two zones. The changes in the minemlogica~ c=~posi- tion (provir~cial alternations) of this type are ~llustrat;ed in Fig. 1, e.~., in section II between ~ and :E. ~ These ~ in mineral content co~ohly coincide with c:ha:ng;es in grain so.

We latter variations, however, Ball under Chance variations", as they remain Ashen narrow fits. Here it must be mentioned that mechanical analysis without preceding mineral examination of the sediments cannot have much value for comparative sedimentary studies. First the mineralogical: examination must decide whether the source of the sediments is the same or not and whether the sediments represent original or mixed material, before charges in grain size regencies can be understood.

The percentages of the non-opaque mineral species are noted in the tatlLe behind the opaque percentage. Ibis is done, because in several sediments more than 50% Of opaque Inertly is found. The opague percentage f~rther- more can seldom be used for co~l;?arison or correlation and when it shows a useful variation, the percont~e of certain non-opaque minerals gives a much chewer picture, of the change of the mir~eral content.

In Borne areas were it was e,~pected that the percentage of, for instance, biotito and apatite night be important for correlation and in which only few calcareous sediments were present, the sediments free of ca~careous material were not treated with acids. The percentage of the opag.ue minerals, Woolite, apatite, siderite, etc. was detrained by courting lOO grains, whereupon 100 insoluble non-opaque grains were counted in order to obtain the percentage of the ordinary non-opaque minerals.

The percentage of the :heavy fraction with respect to the entire sand fraction can be added as a percentage by weight, or the determination of the light fraction minerals -can be based on the material not separated in bromoform, the heavy mineral percentage being determined by counting. The latter method Is better. After the variations of the mineral percentages in a section or series have been studied =~ the mineral tables, it is nearly always found that certain mineral species are present ~n all Bangles, e.g., zircon, tou~aline, rude. These are called non-diagnostic minerals. The percentages of the other mineral Species (diagnostic minerals) are plotted graphically in ~ petrographical section.

The aim of this paper is to show that the doubt still exist- ing in the minds of may sedimentary petrologists concerning laboratory method and interpretation of heavy mineral work is not justified. The examples given in this paper have been selected from many others all givi:E~g similar results. From the examination of 60,000 sales of many stratigraphical sections in d~feren-t parts of the world it may be concluded that: l. Percentages of minerals determined by the line counting method are more in accordance with percentages by volume or weight and less sub ject to the human element then those obtained by counting minerals prese::~t in fields.

The distinction between t'orig~al" (pure) and ~m~xedt' mineral Lesson ations ( sediments) is of primary importmce for the interpretation of the mineral results. This distinct' on can easily- be made when the sedimentary-petrological investigation is made on a removal scale. 8, The distinction of "original" and 'nixed' mineral associa- tions present in ~ certain area and the acknowledge of the proportion of the originalmineral associations present in the "mixed" associations in different pits of the area (variations in the percentages of the minerals) leads to the final conclusion, wall ch comprises: the localities of the sources of the "orig~r~al" mineral assoc~aticns, the geographical and stratigraphical distribution of each association and of their mixtures and of the relation lbetv~een the different mineral provinces. 9. The heavy mineral fraction of only one grade is investigated in order to avoi d variations in the mineral percentages. As these variations are very important for the ~nterpretat~n of the results, this manner of investigation is not justified. The mineral ~nvestiga- t~on of different grades of one sediment complicates the interpretation considerably. . . . . . 10. Heavy mineral studies should always be made first on a regional scale. The examination of fear Apples over a large area or . . . . . . . strat~graph~1 period discloses the presence of different sedimentary metrological pro~nces~ax~d zones. More detailed work done afterwards . . . . gives the exact bo~nd~ies between these p=wnces and zones. 11. Comparison of the results of mechanical analysis of sediments should always be preceded by ~ mineral examination, as chances in the grain size frequencies, due to different origin or to mixing of met eria1 from different sources in various proportions, Carl at present only be found by mineral examination.
