Description
Summary:Indonesia is known as a volcanic country because Indonesia is located in the Pacific Ring of the fire zone so there are many volcanoes. One of the volcanic areas in Indonesia is the Tengger Volcanic Complex located in East Java. Inside the Tengger Volcanic Complex, there is Mount Bromo and mountains or hills that are no longer active, such as Segarawedi and Widodaren. Volcanic ash produced from the eruption of the Bromo volcano and the tuff layers in Segarawedi and Widodaren have rocks that have magnetic properties. Magnetic minerals are measured to obtain their magnetic properties and also the coercivity of the rock. One method to get the rock coercivity value is by unmixing method. The digitization method is useful for literature-based research if the research sample is not available. The MAX UnMix program was used in this study to carry out the unmixing process of sample data. Based on the results of unmixing the Bromo volcanic ash sample and the Segarawedi and Widodaren tuff samples, the coercivity data for each magnetic component ranged from 0.81 mT - 202.29 mT. Based on the unmixing results, 3 components were obtained in each sample of Bromo volcanic ash, Segarawedi tuff sample, and Widodaren tuff. It is known that component 1 is the component with the highest coercivity value compared to component 2 and component 3. In components 2 and 3 there is a big difference between the Bromo volcanic ash sample and the Segarawedi tuff and Widodaren tuff samples. The results of unmixing samples of Segarawedi tuff and Widodaren tuff have uniform coercivity values, while for Bromo volcanic ash samples have various coercivity values. This was caused by the injection of new magma during the Bromo eruption in 2010.
