Abstract


ABSTRAK Penemuan bongkah-bongkah vuggy quartz di sekitar Desa Pojok, daerah Gunung Budheg, Tulungagung, Jawa Timur, mengindikasikan adanya proses endapan mineral di daerah tersebut. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk membahas lebih detail karakteristik alterasi dan mineralisasi serta tipe endapan mineral di daerah penelitian. Metode penelitian berupa pengamatan lapangan dilengkapi dengan analisis laboratorium petrografi, X-ray Difraction (XRD) dan mineragrafi. Satuan batuan di daerah penelitian tersusun atas enam satuan litologi yaitu satuan intrusi dasit, satuan lava andesit, satuan breksi andesit, satuan breksi polimik, satuan batugamping terumbu dan aluvium. Tipe alterasi di daerah penelitian adalah alterasi profilitik, argilik, argilik lanjut, dan silisifikasi. Alterasi profilitik dicirikan oleh melimpahnya mineral klorit. Alterasi argilik dicirikan dengan melimpahnya mineral kaolin, sementara argilik lanjut dicirikan oleh hadirnya mineral kaolinit dan alunit. Alterasi silisifikasi yang dicirikan oleh melimpahnya mineral kuarsa. Mineral logam yang ditemukan di daerah penelitian didominasi oleh kelompok mineral sulfida seperti kovelit, kalkosit, enargit, kalkopirit, pirit,  dan jarosit. Emas native ditemukan berasosiasi dengan enargit. Sistem endapan mineral pada daerah penelitian merupakan sistem epitermal sulfidasi tinggi dicirikan oleh kuarsa berongga (vuggy quartz) yang termineralisasi dan kehadiran mineral kaolin sebagai mineral hasil alterasi.

ABSTRACT The discovery of vuggy quartz boulders around Pojok Village, Gunung Budheg area, Tulungagung, East Java, indicates the presence of mineral deposits process in this area. This study aims to discuss detailed characteristics of alteration and mineralization as well as mineral deposits type in the study area. The research methods are field observations completed with petrography, X-ray Diffraction (XRD), and mineragraphy laboratory analysis. The rock unit in the study area consists of six lithology units, a dacitic intrusion, andesitic lava, andesitic breccia, poly-mix breccia, reef limestone, and alluvium. The study area's alteration types are profilitic alteration, argillic alteration, advanced argillic, and silicification alteration. The profilitic alteration characterized by the abundance of chlorite minerals. The argillic alteration characterized by the abundance of kaolin minerals, while the advanced argillic alteration by the presence of kaolinite and alunite minerals. The silicification alteration characterized by abundance quartz minerals. The metallic minerals dominated in the area are sulfide minerals such as covellite, chalcocite, enargite, chalcopyrite, pyrite, and jarosite. The native gold found in an association with enargite. The study area's mineral deposit system is an epithermal high sulfidation system characterized by mineralized vuggy quartz and the presence of kaolinite mineral as an alteration mineral.
