Summary: | Bandung is a basin surrounded by a series of volcanoes that developed in the era of middleend quaternary and has a fault with a length of about 22 km in the West-East direction called
the Lembang fault. This fault is located about 10 km north of Bandung City. This makes the
geology of Bandung quite unique so that a method is needed to describe the structure under
the surface of Bandung.One method that is quite good at describing subsurface structures is
the gravity method. Gravity method is a passive geophysical method that measures the
difference in the Earth's gravitational field in an area. In describing the subsurface, the gravity
method utilizes rock density contrast. The subsurface model is made from a complete Bouguer
anomaly print map Bandung, then digitized to obtain a complete digital Bouguer anomaly map.
Furthermore, on the digital anomaly map, the separation of regional and residual anomalies
is done using the moving average method. From the separation of the anomaly, a 2.5D
modeling was carried out using background density of 2.67 g / cc. The modeling results show
that Tangkuban Parahu has basaltic magma chamber at 870 meters, Lembang fault is a normal
fault and the subsurface structure of Bandung consists of a layer of limestone which is the
formation of Cilanang, a layer of breccia and a mixture of unclear old volcanic products,
pumice tuff layers and tuff layers of sand and lake sediments. |
