Summary: | A study was carried out to characterize the 20.3 ha of ex-mining land at Kg. Kepayang Baru,
Ipoh. The study shows that the ex-mining land can be classified into three groups i. e., sandy, clayey
and a mixture of sandy and clayey deposits. The bases, organic carbon, phosphorus and nitrogen contents
are very low. The cation exchange capacity is low, but pH is very high. The dominant minerals
in the clay fraction are kaolinite, mica and chlorite. |
