1 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | The Geology of Phongum Razi Ranges, Putao District, Kachin State | Kachin State is located in the northern part of Myanmar between India to the west and China to the east and north. The present study area covers the northweastern part of Kachin State including Putao Township. The prominent geographic feature of this area is the Mont Phongumrazi which is about (10500) feet height above sea level with snow caps in all seasons. This area is geologically still unknown and systematic geological investigation had never been studied yet. The study area is composed of mostly Igneous and Metamorphic rocks. The igneous rocks are biotite granite, hornblende biotite granite, peridotite and hornblendite. They are frequently cross cut by pegmatite, aplite veins and silica veins in numerous places. Most of these are found as massive and boulder in shape, and their sizes are very large amount to form as elevated mountain ranges distributing Putao township. The metamorphic rocks are intruded by igneous rocks. They are hornblende biotite gneiss, marble and hornblende biotite schist and garnet mica schist. They are shown as south plunging anticline structure in regional scale. The sedimentary rocks are found as Putao gravel and alluvium which are only observed at only Putao and neighbouring area. As economic point of view some Putao Jade (Grossular garnet) occurrence near upper Shangaung village, ruby and sapphire occurrences at Manse Kaung village and small scale placer gold mines are done by local people in numerous streams banks particularly at lower Shangaung areas. Granite are also used for road and construction materials and marble can be applied for raw material of cement industry. | Universities Research Journal, 2008 December, Vol I, No-2 (Pg.1-15) |

2 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | Petrogenetic Interpretation Based on Petrographic Characters of Pelitic Metamorphic Rocks exposed in Pinwe-Mawlu Area, Indaw Township, Sagaing Region | The study area lies in Indaw Township, northeastern part of Sagaing Region. It is situated between Latitude 24° 20ʹ to 24° 35ʹ N and Longitude 96° 10ʹ to 96° 20ʹ E. The present study area is made up chiefly of metamorphic rocks and minor sedimentary rocks. They occupy the entire bulk of the Katha-Gangaw Range. Metamorphic rocks are low to medium grade and mainly exposed in the central and eastern part of the area. Because of the thick soil cover and dense growth of plants, rock units are poorly exposed. Good exposures can be seen along the stream sections and some topmost parts of the hills.The pelitic metamorphic rocks which composed in the study area may be lithologically divided into eight units. They are (i) chlorite schist (ii) biotite schist (iii) muscovite schist (iv) garnet biotite schist (v) garnet muscovite schist (vi) paragonite garnet schist (vii) sillimanite garnet staurolite schist and (viii) garnet kyanite (sillimanite) muscovite schist. Garnet biotite schist is the most abundant metamorphic rock unit and this unit occupies the central and eastern part of the area.On the basic of petrographic analysis, eight representative mineral assemblages are recognized. Petrographic investigation on this rock assemblage reveals that the metamorphic grade of these rocks range from low grade of lower greenschist facies to higher grade of upper amphibolite facies. The sequence of metamorphic facies encountered in the study area could be compared to the medium P/T (intermediate pressure and intermediate temperature) facies series of Barrovian Type. | Monywa University Research Journal, 2016 December, Vol 7, No-1, (Pg.307-320) |

3 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | Estimating P.T condition of Metamorphic Rocks Exposed in Mawlu Area, Indaw Township, Sagaing Region with Isochemical Phase Diagram Sections | The study area lies in Indaw Township, northeastern part of Sagaing Region. It is situated between Latitude 24° 20ʹ to 24° 35ʹ N and Longitude 96° 10ʹ to 96° 20ʹ E. The present study area is chiefly made up of metamorphic rocks and minor sedimentary rocks. They occupy the entire bulk of the Katha-Gangaw Range.On the basis of petrographic analysis, nine representative mineral assemblages are distinctive in various types of schists occurred in the study area (eight in metapilite and one in metabasite). According to mineral assemblages, the metamorphic rocks of the research area indicate lower greenschist facies to upper amphibolites facies. Isochemical pressure-temperature phase-diagram sections portray the theoretical equilibrium distribution of mineral assemblages and mineral compositions for a given bulk-composition. Isochemical sections for garnet-staurolite-sillimanite-muscovite-quartz, garnet-kyanite (sillimanite)-muscovite-quartz of pelitic rocks from sillimanite zone and garnet-actinolite-tschermakite-chlorite-biotite-quartz-epidote of metabasite rocks from garnet zone at Mawlu area, were calculated in the system MnO-Na2O-CaO-K2O-Fe2O3-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2-H2O-TiO2 using bulk compositions derived by X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis. Procedures of calculation methods to produce P-T pseudosection diagrams are used to Perple-X computer program. These sections were constructed in the interval 2-12 kilobars, 400-800°C to cover the P-T conditions. The phase-diagram sections for the XRF derived composition indicates that the garnet zone and sillimanite zone metamorphic rocks occurred at approximately 3 kilobars to12 kilobars at 470-735°C. | Monywa University Research Journal, 2017 December, Vol 8, No-1, (Pg.520-532) |

4 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | Estimating P-T conditions of Garnet Tschermakite Schist Exposed in Pinwe Area, Indaw Township, Sagaing Region Deduced from Isochemical Phase Diagram | In the Katha-Gangaw Range of the Pinwe-Mawlu area, the unmappable exposure of garnet-tschermakite schist occurs as massive block and is enclosed in garnet-biotite schist. Tschermakite porphyroblasts are pale green to greenish grey in color, hypidioblastic to idioblastic acicular crystals up to 2 mm in length contain inclusions of quartz. Garnet porphyroblasts are hybidioblastic crystals, pale brown to reddish brown color, up to 8 mm in size and filled with flattened quartz. Isochemical pressure-temperature phase-diagram portray the theoretical equilibrium distribution of mineral assemblages and mineral compositions for a given bulk-composition. Isochemical section for garnet-tschermakite schist from the study area is calculated in the system MnO-Na2O-CaO-K2O-FeO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2-H2O-TiO2 using bulk compositions derived by X-ray fluorescence (XRF). On the basis of petrographic analysis, the Grt-Ts-Act-Chl-Pg-Epi-Qtz assemblage of garnet tschermakite schist is equivalent to the amphibolite to eclogite facies transition. The XRF derived bulk rock composition of isochemical section of metamafic rock of the garnet-tschermakite schist is predicted approximately 9 kilobars to 18 kilobars and 520°C to 680°C. | Proceeding (MNCES, 2017), 2017 November, Vol 1, (Pg.475-485) | ||
5 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | Mineralogy and estimating P-T conditions of metamorphic rocks exposed in Hpyu Taung Area, Banmauk Township, Sagaing Region, Myanmar | The study area is situated in Banmauk Township, north-eastern part of the Sagaing Region, Myanmar. It lies between latitude 24°23'-24°26' N and longitude 95°48'-95°51' E in UTM map of sheet No. 2495 15. The investigated area is 3 km long in E-W direction and 2 km wide in N-S direction. The study area is mainly composed of metamorphic rocks and igneous rocks. Their age ranges from Triassic to Cretaceous. The lithologic units exposed in the study area are recognized, in descending order, as follows; the Hpyu Taung metamorphic (middle to late Triassic), granodiorite (late Early Cretaceous), foliated granite (late Cretaceous) and leucogranite (late Cretaceous). The Hpyu Taung metamorphics include quartzite, actinolite-chlorite schist and gneiss. Typical minerals in the study area are actinolite, biotite, chlorite, epidote, garnet, hornblende, K-feldspar, plagioclase, quartz and minor opaque minerals. On the basis of the mineral assemblages, the Hpyu Taung metamorphics belong to greenschist and amphibolite facies. ). For predicting the P-T conditions, Perple-X computer program was used with the bulk rock composition obtained from XRF analysis .The whole P-T ranges of garnet gneiss in the study area is approximately correspond to1.1GPa to 1.2 Gpa at 600-730°C. Actinolite chlorite schist of the study area is predicted from approximately 0.4 GPa to 0.55 GPa and 490°C and 540°C. Therefore, the P-T ranges of the metamorphic rocks (Hpyu Taung Metamorphics) of the study area may be 0.4-1.2 GPa and 490-730°C. | Reserch Journal, 2018 November, Vol 1, (Pg.56-64) | ||
6 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | "Petrography and Petrogenesis of Basalt exposed at Kyaukka, Kyiwin and Taungtalone Taung Area, Ayardaw and Monywa Townships, Sagaing Region | The three localities of basalt exposed in the study areas is underlied by the Peguans and Irrawaddians. The ratio of CaO/Al2O3 (0.873 for samples KK 1-3; 0.965 for samples TT 1-3; 1.048 for samples KW 1-3) suggests that the basalts from the study areas are produced by the smallest extents and lowest pressure of melting. Laboratory data and field works reveal that Kyaukka and Taungtalone basalts would be considered alkaline, approximately whereas the Kyiwin basalt would be subalkaline more or less. This is pointed out that there are two distinct sources of magmas. Therefore, it may be concluded all basalt samples from the study areas are not produced at the same source. It is likely that the Kyaukka, Taungtalone and Kyiwin basalts are products of transitional condition from alkali olivine basalt to tholeiitic basalt type. | Monywa University Research Journal, 2019 February, Vol 9, No-1, (Pg.309-317) |

7 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | "Petrology, mineralogy and P-T conditions of cordierite-biotite-garnet gneisses exposed at Mogok-Monglong area, Mogok Township, Mandalay Region, Myanmar | The Mogok metamorphic belt in Mogok-Monglong area is composed mainly of high–temperature paragneisses, marbles, calc–silicate rocks, and granitoids. The Kabe gneisses exposed in the study area consists of garnet + sillimanite +cordierite + biotite + K-feldspar assemblage is indicative of a low-pressure facies series. Textures record a single metamorphic event involving the crystallization of cordierite at the reaction of almadine garnet, sillimanite and quartz. The pelitic gneisses of the study area suggest metamorphic conditions corresponding to the amphibolites facies. The pressure-temperature range from isochemical diagrams is 300 MPa to 450 MPa and 580°C to 690°C. The cordierite-biotite-garnet gneisses of the investigated area is regionally metamorphosed from pelites at low- to medium-P and high temperature conditions. | Conference Proceedings (3rd SSCOE, 2019), 2019 October, Vol 1, (Pg-144-151) | ||
8 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | "Petrogenetic Studies of Metamorphic Rocks Exposed in Manhlwe-Waba Kaung Area, KathaTownship, Sagaing Region | The study area lies in Katha Township, northeastern part of Sagaing Region. It is situated between Latitude 24° 21ʹ to 24° 25ʹ N and Longitude 96° 17ʹ to 96° 24ʹ E in UTM maps of sheet No.2496 07. The present study area is made up chiefly of metamorphic rocks and minor sedimentary rocks. They occupy the entire bulk of the Katha-Gangaw Range. Metamorphic rocks are low to medium grade and mainly exposed in the central and western part of the area. The metamorphic rocks of the present area belong to Katha Metamorphics and they are subdivided into three informal units: lower Unit I, middle Unit II and upper Unit III. The lower Unit I is chiefly composed of garnet biotite schist and garnet muscovite schist. The middle Unit II is essentially composed of quartzite, micaceous quartzite, graphite mica schist, biotite schist and muscovite schist. The upper Unit III is mainly composed of chlorite schist. The metamorphic rocks of the study area fall in the greenschist to amphibolite facies of medium to high pressure orogenic metamorphism during the Cretaceous to early Eocene time. The Katha Metamorphics of the study area are derived from the pelitic, psammitic rocks with minor chert and mafic rocks of the Ngapyawdaw Chaung Formation of Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous age. | Conference Proceedings (3rd SSCOE, 2019), 2019 October, Vol 1, (Pg.562-572) | ||
9 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | "Petrogenetic Interpretation of Chlorite-Tremolite Schists from Shwedaung Formation exposed at Tatkon-Magyibin Area, Wuntho Township, Sagaing Region, Myanmar" | Chlorite-tremolite schists from Shwedaung Formation exposed at Tatkon-Magyibin area, Wuntho Township were studied to determine their protoliths, metamorphic facies and P-T conditions of metamorphism. The schist units are closely associated with mafic volcanics and felsic plutonic rocks. It is commonly occurred as nearly vertical foliation and sometime thick bedded nature. It is characterized by fine to medium grained, hard and compact. Petrographic studies reveal that the rocks are composed predominantly of chlorite, tremolite, talc and calcite. The bulk rocks composition show that the chlorite-tremolite schists are rich in SiO2, Al2O3, MgO, CaO and Fe2O3 with significant enrichment in Co, Cr and V and slight enrichment in Cu. The other trace elements like Ni, Rb, Sr and Zr are generally low. The chlorite-tremolite schists plotted in the ultrabasic field (picrobasalts) and basic field (basalts) of the SiO2 and Na2O + K2O diagram. The mineral assemblages clearly indicate that the rock develops in metabasite of chlorite zone of greenschist facies. The obtained P-T conditions of the chlorite-tremolite schist of the study area may be 0.1GPa to 0.4 GPa at 300°C to 450°C. | Conference Proceedings (3rd SSCOE, 2019), 2019 October, Vol 1, (Pg.165-174) | ||
10 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | Petrogenetic Studies of Metamorphic Rocks Exposed in Byangyi-Naungpein Area, Katha Township, Sagaing Region | The study area is situated in Katha Township, northeastern part of Sagaing Region. It lies between Latitude 24° 17ʹ to 24° 25ʹ N and Longitude 96° 16ʹ to 96° 24ʹ E. The presence of the distinctive mineral assemblages such as Chl-Ms-Qtz, Bt-Ms-Chl-Qtz and Grt-Ms-Bt-Qtz in metapelite point out that the study area falls within the lower greenschist facies to amphibolites facies. Some textural features and lithologic characters indicate that the metamorphic rocks of the Katha-Gangaw Range (including the study area) may probably be metamorphosed from the mixture of pelitic and psammitic rocks of Late Jurassic to Early Cretaceous age. Three metamorphic zones such as chlorite, biotite and garnet zones are recognized. The chlorite zone is to be in the 350 to 450°C range, biotite zone is 420°C at about 0.35 GPa and the garnet zone is 460-500°C. There is neither precise time of metamorphism nor available radiometric dating for the metamorphic rocks of the study area. The sequence of metamorphic conditions encountered could be compared to the medium P/T facies series of Barrovian Type. | University of Mandalay Research Journal, 2019 December, Vol 10, No-5, (Pg.239-248) | ||
11 | Dr Aung Khin Soe Professor | Tectonic Implication of Pinwe-Mawlu Area, Indaw Township, Sagaing Region | Myanmar is divided into Western Province and Eastern Province separated by Sagaing Fault. Western Province is Myanmar microplate and Eastern Province is a part of Shan-Thai Block. West Myanmar Province separated from Gondwana during Late Triassic to Late Jurassic, accreting to the Sibumasu Block in the Early Cretaceous and Indian Plate started drifting northward. West Myanmar Province collided with the Sibumasu Block in Late Mesozoic. Subduction and collision between Indian Plate and West Myanmar Province began Mid-Eocene and reached its peak in Oligocene. Due to the collision of Indian, Eurasian and Myanmar microplatelet created the Katha-Gangaw Range in the northern Myanmar Plate. The eastern part of west Myanmar Province was the strongest transformation effect in Pliocene due to continuous subduction of Indian Plate. The metamorphic of Katha-Gangaw Range is equivalent of the ophiolite of Indo-Burman Ranges and it is the northern offset continuation of the western Indo-Burman Ranges. Kyanite (sillimanite)-garnet schist of pelitic rocks and garnet-tschermakite schist of basic rocks of the present area have undergone high P-T conditions (~1.8 GPa/735°). The sequence of metamorphic facies encountered in the study area could be compared to the high P facies series of Franciscan Type. As a result of the dextral movement of the Sagaing Fault, the metamorphic rocks of the Kumon Range and Katha-Gangaw Range reached to present position. | Banmaw University Research Journal, 2020 June, Vol 11, No-1, (Pg.387-401) |

12 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Facies analysis of the Permian Units exposed in Loikaw area, Kayah State | The Middle Permian sequences are located in the Loikaw plain of Quaternary age dotted with hills. It can be subdivided into 12 lithofacies units distinguished on the basis of their depositional textures that represent on an overall regressive siliciclastic-carbonate sequence. in order of increasing relative water depth, it is reef-reef mound environment for Moulmein Limestone. Based on the paleoecology, sedimentary structures and lithology, three distinct depositional settings can be recognized: supratidal, intertidal and subtidal environments. | Mandalay University Research Journal, 2010, December, Vol. 2, (Pg.159-170) |

13 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | New Evidence of Carboniferous age in the Taungnyo Group at Loikaw area, Kayah State | No other Carboniferous trilobite faunas have been described from Myanmar yet. Early Carboniferous (Late Tournaisian-Early Visean) trilobites in Loikaw area were collected from the Taungnyo Group which consists of the greenish grey, thin-to medium-bedded, argillaceous lime mudstone containing fossiliferous. It is followed by a thick succession of purplish to yellowish grey, thin-to medium-bedded, micaceous and fossiliferous siltstone-shale-calcareous sandstone sequence intercalated with limestone lenses and bands. The uppermost is mainly composed of dark grey, thin-to medium-bedded calcareous and carbonaceous mudstone with thin limestone lenses gradationally changes to yellowish grey, thin-bedded and non-calcareous concretionary siltstone. Four species of trilobites are described: Sulcubole sp., Liobole (Sulcubole) aff. castroi, Phillibole sp., and Geigibole sp. they have a close affinity with Early Carboniferous trilobites from Thailand and Malaysia. | Myanmar Academy of Arts and Sciences, 2012, March, Vol. X, No. 6, (Pg.1-12) |

14 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Facies and depositional environments of Miocene sequence in Nat Son Maw area, Pyawbwe Township, Mandalay Region | Neogene sequences are located in the Pegu Yoma Range, in the eastern part of the Central Myanmar Tertiary Basin. The Moza Formation, part of the Neogene strata, is subdivided into eleven lithofacies that are distinguished on the basis of the associated primary sedimentary structures, faunal contents, biogenic structures, bed sets and bed-based types. Based on the lithology, sedimentary structure and lithofacies, five distinct depositional settings can be recognized: point bar, sand bar, mixed flat, upper sand flat, and shoal. Deposition of Moza sediments took place during the Middle Miocene in a tide-dominated estuary environment. | Myingyan Degree College Research Journal, 2012, June, Vol. 3, No. 1, (Pg.49-62) |

15 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Middle Permian faunas from Loikaw area, Kayah State and its paleobiogeographical implications | Permian rocks are widely distributed throughout Myanmar. Because of the tropical-equatorial climate, the rocks are commonly deeply weathered and covered by dense vegetation over much of the region. The temporal increase of the generic diversity can be explained by the northward drift of the Cimmerian Continent during Permian time. The scarce occurrence or total absence of these essentially Tethys-indicating fusulinoideans in the Sibumasu Block suggests that the eastern Cimmerian Continent was still far from the equatoro-tropical Cathaysian domain and was probably in a warm temperate or subtropical zone until the end of the Permian. the eastern Cimmerian areas finally migrated into a tropical zone by Late Triassic judging in the Kamawkala Limestone of Loikaw area in the Sibumasu Block. | Universities Research Journal, 2012, December, Vol.5, No.6, (Pg.339-354) |

16 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | "Late Tournaisian conodonts from the Taungnyo Group near Loi Kaw, Myanmar (Burma): Implications for Shan Plateau stratigraphy and evolution of the Gondwana-derived Sibumasu Terrane (dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.gr.2013.09.004)" | Carboniferous conodonts are reported for the first time from Myanmar (Burma). Conodont faunas representative of the Scailognathus anchoralis and Gnathodus typicus-Protognathodus cordiformis conodont zones date the sampled Taungnyo Group south of Loi Kaw, Kayah State as late Tournaisian confirming a Mississippian (Lower Carboniferous) age for the sampled part of this stratigraphic unit. The dated strata are stratigraphically just below the Tournaisian-Visean (T-V) boundary. Tournaisian strata are thus for the first time unequivocally demonstrated in the Shan Plateau region of Myanmar. Similar conodont faunas from the T-V boundary interval in SE Asia indicate a complete stratigraphic sequence at this level in shallow-marine sequences on intra-Tethyan Cathaysian tectonic blocks (South China) and in deep-marine Paleao-Tethyan sediments (cherts of the Inthanon suture zone, Thailand). However, in shallow-marine sequences on the Sibumasu Block, located on the NE margin of Gondwana in the Carboniferous, they demonstrate a non-sequence or unconformity at this level, also seen elsewhere in Gondwana. Biogeographic links between upper Tournaisian and early Visean conodonts on the Sibumasu Terrane and Laurentia and Eastern Australian Gondwana support a NW Australian Gondwana margin position for Sibumasu in the Late Palaeozoic. | Gondwana Research, 2014, January, Vol.26, (Pg.1159-1172) |

17 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Depositional environment and diagenetic patterns of oolites from Pan Laung Formation, Myitha township, Mandalay Region | The oolitic limestones from Pan Laung Formation exposed along the western part of Pan Laung Fault between Seinye and Lungyaw villages, Myittha Township are investigated to describe their petrofabric and diagenetic processes that occurred in these units. The Pan Laung Formation is compared essentially of medium-to thick-bedded siltstone, sandstone, and sandy oolitic limestone with parallel lamination and small-scale cross-bedding. On the basis of their internal structures, the Pan Laung ooids are classified into five types, viz, ooids with fine concentric cortices, ooids with medium concentric cortices, ooids with coarse concentric cortices, ooids with radial laminae, and ooids with mixed radial and concentric laminae. The major diagenetic processes observed in the oolitic limestone of Pan Laung Formation are cementation, dissolution, compaction, microbial micritization, and neomorphism. The probable depositional environment for Pan Laung oolites is a shoal environment with high to moderately agitated water such as tidal bars. | Loikaw University Research Journal, 2014, November, Vol.5, (Pg.57-77) |

It can be subdivided into eleven microfacies units distinguished on the basis of their depositional textures that represent an overall transgressive carbonate sequence. five major depositional environments are identified in Early Devonian deposits on the basis of grain type, sedimentary structure, fossil and vertical and lateral facies relationships. In order of increasing relative water depths, they are deeper shelf, snad-shoal (platform margin), shelf lagoon, open-marine to restricted shallow-water and peritidal (platform interior). The presence of quartzose sandstone unit on the top of this formation is indicative of a final shallow marine deposition. | Universities Research Journal, 2015, February, Vol.7, No.4, (Pg391-105) |

20 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | "The “Panghkawkwo graptolite bed” (Llandovery, Silurian), Myanmar and the location of the Sibumasu (or Sibuma) Terrane in the Silurian (dx.doi.org/ 10.1016/j.palaeo.2016.12.028)" | The "Panghkawkwo graptolite bed" is shown to comprise several graptolitic horizons extending through the Aeronian (middle Llandovery) and into the lower Telychian (upper Lkandovery). Graptolite assemblages are diverse indicating an outer shelf (or deeper) depositional environment. They are similar to those of Bohemia and Saudi Arabia (peri-Gondwanan Europe and core Gondwana respectively), but include also taxa (Agetograptus and species of Metaclimacograptus) not known from these regions, but which characterize lower latitude Llandovery graptolite assemblages. The evidence for the Silurian location of the Sibuma(su) Terrane is discussed. The presence of Monograptus belophorus and Cyrtograptus rigidus in the lower Sheinwoodian (Wenlock) of western Yunnan suggests a non-equatorial palaeolatitude.

21 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Diagenetic Patterns of Oolites from Sitha Formation in the Dattaw Valley, Pyin Oo Lwin Township, Mandalay Region, Myanmar | The oolitic limestones from Sith Formation are well exposed at the foot slope of Dattaw Vallley, Pyin Oo Lwin Township. The Sith Formation consists of well-bedded, bluish grey limestone with irregular silt partings, locally crystalline limestone and oolitic limestone. On the basis of their internal structures, the Sitha ooids are classified into three types, viz., ooids with radial laminae, ooids with concentric cortices, and ooids with radial laminae and external cortices. The oolites from Sitha Formation may be deposited in low energy quiet water with lightly agitated condition (supratidal). The diagenetic processes taken place include cementation, dissolution, compaction, dolomitization and neomorphism. Petrographic studies show that diagenesis took place in wide diagenetic environments including freshwater phreatic zone, vadose zone and deep burial zone. | The First Myanmar National Conference on Earth Sciences MNCES, 2017, 2017, November 27-28 Monywa University, (Pg.158-168) |

22 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Early Permian (Cisuralian) brachiopod fauna from the Yinyaw Beds in the Yinyaw area, Pekon Township, Southern Shan State, Myanmar | The Yinyaw Beds are well exposed near the Yinyaw village, 37 km west of Moebye, Pekon Township in the Southern Shan State. They contain very abundant brachiopod fossils. After a preliminary examination, we identified the brachiopods: Retimarginifera alata, Neospirifer fasciger, Spinomartinia prolifica, Phricodothyris sp., ?Derbyia sp., Stereochia koyaoensis, Stenoscisma qasimultabilis, Transennatia sp., Martiniopsis sp., Spiriferella salteri. Costatumulus? sp. Based on these brachiopods; the present fauna probably indicates that the Yinyaw Beds may be of late Early Permian age. Of the brachiopods, Spinomartinia prolifica, Retimarginifera alata, Stereochia sp., etc are also present in the Lebyin Group at Ngayanchaung of the Lebyin area and the Taungnyo Group in the Kya In Taung, northern part of Zwekabin range, thus it is clear that the Yiyaw Beds are equivalent to the upper part of the Lebyin and Taungnyo groups. | Journal of Myanmar Geosciences society (MGS), 2018, June, Vol 8, No.1, (Pg.1-8) |

The Hirnantian at this site is conformably underlying by the Katian (Upper Ordovician) and overlain by the Rhuddanian (Lower Silurian), all of which are very fossiliferous. The newly observed fauna consists of Dalmanella sp., Dalmanella testudinaria, Hirnantia sp., Hirnantia sagittifera, Kinnella medlicotti, Kinnella kinelane, Paromalomena sp., Plectothyrella crassicesta, Onniella? sp., Dysprorthis sp., Dysprosorthis cf. sinensis, Leptaena sp., Paracraniops sp., Fardenia sp. and Aeginomena? sp. indicating a Hirnantian age. The presence of the Hirnantia fauna at this new level indicates a significant cooling and eustatic fall in the sea level resulting in a shallow subtidal environment. According to the brachiopods and other related shelly fossils, the Myanmar fauna mentioned above shares a very close relationship with those south Thailand and South China, all of which belong toperi-Gondwanan paleoplate, i.e., the Sibumasu. | 2018, AugustThe Second Myanmar National Conference on Earth Sciences (MNCES, 2018), 2018, November 29-30 Hinthada University, (Pg.692-700) |

25 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Lithostratigraphy of the Lower Paleozoic Units exposed in the Panglong Area, Southern Shan State | The investigated area lies in the Panglong Basin, are elongated elliptical area, 10 miles long and about 4 miles that distance in maximum width. It is trending NNW-SSE and passing northward into the Nawnglai valley. The stratigraphic units from ascending order are: Lokepyin Formation (Early Ordovician), Wunbye Formation (Middle Ordovician), Nan-on Formation (Late Ordovician), Linwe Formation (Silurian) and lacustrine deposits. The present work also pointed out that the stratigraphic units in the Panglong area. The exposures of lacustrine deposits are infrequent but these deposits are best found either in natural stream sections, which are uncommon, or in road cutting at a point half a mile NE of Panglong University. The beds of lignite are sometimes found in the old lake basin of southern Shan State. | Taunggyi University Research Journal, 2019 June, Vol.10, No.2, (Pg-251-262) |

26 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Lower Permian Unit exposed in the northwestern part of Zwekabin Range,Hpa-an Township, Kayin State: its paleographic implication | The Lower Permian unit is well exposed in the Kya Inn Taung located in the northwestern part of Zwekabin Range. The unit consists of a sequence of siliciclastic sediments and lime mudstone with abundant brachiopods, bryozoan and conodonts, etc. The present fauna (Stenoscisma quasimutabilis, Spiriferella salteri, Spinomartinia prolifica, Martinia sp., Phricodothyris asiatica, Vediproductus punctatiformis, Retimarginifera alata, Urushtenoidea sp., Stereochia kayaoensi, Spiriferellina sp.) indicate late Early Permian age (Kungurian). This fossiliferous Lower Permian unit is strongly confirmed that it is the transitional part between the Taungnyo Group and Moulmein Limestone. It may be correlated with Yinyaw beds of southern Shan State and the fossiliferous unit from Lebyin area. Although the new data are still continually being obtained, the fauna from Kya Inn Taung have been used to establish the climatic conditions and reconstructing the palaeogeography during Permian time.

27 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | The Latest Ordovician Hirnantian brachiopod fauna of Myanmar: Significance of new data from the Mandalay Region | A new, latest Ordovician brachiopod fauna is systematically described from the Hwe Mawng Purple Shale Member (Hirnantian) of the Naungkangyi Group of the Pa-thin area, Mandalay Region, Myanmar, revealing one of the most diverse representatives of the typical Hirnantia Fauna. Rhynchonelliformean, craniiformean and linguliformean brachiopods studied belong to 23 genera and a few indeterminate taxa, among which the most abundant genus Kinnella, along with the four common genera (Paromalomena, Pseudopholidops, Fardenia, and Dalmanella), and other genera (such as Cliftonia, Draborthis, Hindella, Hirnantia, Leptacena, Mirorthis, Plectothyrella, Skenidioides, and Xenocrania) are recorded for the first time. This high diversity Hirnantia Fauna represents an ecological differentiation within the benthos of the Sibumasu Terrane during the end Ordovician global crisis. The palaeoeco-unit named herein as the Kinnella-Paromalomena Association is assigned to lower BA3. This paper includes a taxonomic revision with the following conclusions: 1) Sinomena Zing et al. and Yichangomena Zing et al. are treated as junior synonyms of Eostropheodonta Bancroft; 2) Hubeinomena Zing et al. is regarded as a juvenile form of Coolinia Bancroft; 3) Paramirorthis Zeng et al. is considered an immature growth stage of Mirorthis Zeng; 4) Shanomena Cocks and Fortey is treated as a junior synonym of Paromalomena Rong; 5) Scenidium? medlicotti Reed is redesignated as the tye species of Kinnella Bergstrom to replace Hirnantia? kielanae Temple. The distribution of the Hirnantia Fauna in Myanmar, Thailand and western Yunnan of the Sibumasu Terrane highlights the distinctive nature of the Mandalay fauna, and the analyses of the Hirnantia Fauna and others of Sibumasu shows that Sibumasu was not located far from the South China and Lhasa palaeoplates during late Middle and Late Ordovician. | Palaeoworld doi.org/10.1016/j.pal wor.2019. 07.002, 2020, 29, (Pg.1-30) | ||
28 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Latest Ordovician graptolites from the Mandalay Region, Myanmar | The graptolite fauna of the Mandalay Region, Myanmar, is poorly known. In this paper, 13 species in the genera Aviograptus, Korenograptus, Metabolograptus, Neodiplograptus and Normalograptus are described from the uppermost Ordovician strata of the area. Two of these species, Korenograptus selectus X. Chen n. sp. and Neodiplograptus mandalayensis X. Chen n. sp., are new. On the basis of the graptolite faunas, a biostratigraphic scheme for the uppermost Ordovician (Hirnantian: Metabolograptus extraordinarius Biozone and Metabolograptus? persculptus Biozone?) strata in this area is erected. | Palaeoworld doi.org/10.1016 / j.palwor. 2019.09.003, 2020, 29, (Pg.108-116) | ||
29 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | First record of Cisuralian- Guadalupian plant fossils from the Shan Plateau, eastern Myanmar | Permian plant fossils have never been reported from the Shan Plateau is eastern Myanmar. Recently, a black to gray carbonaceous mudstone unit containing abundant plant fossils was discovered just below the lowest part of Thitspin Limestone Formation from the Linwe Area, eastern Myanmar. Although only five taxa were identified, the plant assemblage provides the first evidence of the occurrence of Cathaysian elements in eastern Myanmar and potentially indicates the presence of a highly diverse Permian flora. Among the five species, Cordaites principalis and Annularia mucronata were cosmopolitan species; while Callipteridum cf. koraiense, Taeniopteris crassinervis Mo and Phipidopsis lobata were mostly recorded in the Cathaysis Flora. Therefore, the present assemblage generally indicates a palaeobiogeographical affinity to the Cathaysian Province. Stratigraphically, Callipteridum cf. koraiense was mainly reported from Cisuralian to Wordian; wheras Taeniopteris crassnervis Mo and Rhipidopsis lobata were recorded from Capitanian to Changhsingian, which suggests a general Permian age based on the plant assemblage itself only. However, the carbonaceous mudstone at the outcrop is overlain by the Thitspin Limestone Formation containing middle Guadalupian fusulinids. Based on previous faunal analyses, the Sibumasu terrane contains typical Gondwanan cold-water faunas during the early Cisuralian, warm-water faunas occurred after Sakmarian. Thus, age of the fossil-plant-containing carbonaceous mudstone is very likely between late Cisuralian and early Guadalupian as constrained by its overlying fusulinids and its warm Cathaysian palaeobiogeographical affinity. | Palaeoworld doi.org/10.1016/j.pal wor.2019. 05.016, 2020, 29, (Pg.108-116) |

30 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Sequence Stratigraphic Interpretation of the Permian Carbonates in Loikaw Area, Kayah State | Seventeen depositional sequences are present in the Middle Permian Moulmein Limestone. Different lithofacies forming shallowing upward cycles are frequently separated by bedding planes that, when viewed in a sequence stratigraphic context, are interpreted as transgressive surface (TS), maximum flooding surfaces (mfs) or cycle boundary (CB). This allows the recognition of transgressive system tract (TST) and highstand systems tract (HST) in the cyclic units. Features formed during the transgression, such as hardground, are more prominent at most cycle boundaries than are those features related to subaerial exposure. All sequences have maximum flooding surfaces with aggradational stacking rather than discrete maximum flooding zones. Although parasequences from equivalent depositional environments can be recognized, their facies compositions completely change. The regional correlation of the lithofacies within the different depositional systems has led to a high-resolution stratigraphic framework, with seventeen fourth-order depositional sequences. Sea-level changes with varying frequencies have been revealed by a meter-scale sedimentological analysis carried out on the Lwetamu hill and Taunggwe-Thittabin-Myagalat range. | Taunggyi University Research Journal (TGI UJ), 2019, December, Vol.11, No.2, (Pg.287-298) |

31 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Depositional Environment of the Silurian Units Exposed in the Pa-Thin Area, Pyin Oo Lwin Township, Mandalay Region | The present area which forms part of the Eastern Highland is situated about 4 miles southeast of Pyin Oo Lwin, Mandalay Region. On the basis of lithologic characters, faunal contents and stratigraphic relationship, theses Silurian units can be subdivided into the lower shale member (Panghsa-pye Formation) and the upper phacoidal micritic limestone member (Nyaungbaw Formation). The Panghsa-pye Formation mainly consists of thin-to medium-bedded, variegated color, silty shale-marl sequence which is characterized by the present of abundant graptolites. The Nyaungbaw Formation is mainly composed of medium-to thick-bedded, reddish brown, purple to greenish grey, phacoidal or nodular micritic limestone. Ten lithofacies for these Silurian units are distinguished on the basis of their depositional textures that represent an overall mixed siliciclastic carbonate sequence. Based on the paleoecology, sedimentary structure and lithology, carbonate ramp depositional setting can be recognized: peritidal (inner ramp) through the deeper ramp (outer ramp) for Pa-Thin units. | Universities Research Journal (URJ), 2019, August, Vol.11, No.11, (Pg.299-311) |

32 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Permian Unit Exposed in the Hopang Area, Wa Self-Administered Division, Northern Shan State, Myanmar | The investigated area is situated in Hopang Township, Wa Self-Administered Division, northern Shan State, Myanmar. The Plateau Limestone of the study area mainly consisted of medium-to thick-bedded, light grey to grey limestone. Most fossils found are fragmentary; complete fossils are rare or absent. The lithology is not much changed except fossils become more complete than the lower. They contain crinoid stems and unidentifiable shells of gastropod, fragments of bryozoan, Syringopora, and solitary corals. It is followed by medium-bedded limestone with more fossil fragments appear in the fusuline horizon composed of gastropods, crinoid stems, corals and a small number of chert nodules. The abundant Cancellina species were found in the Hopang limestone. The associating genera include Pseudofusulina, Parafusulina, Nankinella and Toriyamaia. The dominance of Cancellina and absence of both Misellina and Neoschwagerina indicate a Kubergandian (Late Kungurian) age. | Myanmar Academy of Arts and Sciences (MAAS), 2019 August, Vol. XVII, No. 5, (Pg.67-79) | ||
33 | Dr Kyi Pyar Aung Professor | Occurrence of Permian Giant Bivalve (Alatoconchidae) from Pindaya Range, Shan State (south), Myanmar | Alatoconchidae, a unique bivalve family from the Permian, was found in the Guadalupian (Middle Permian) shallow marine limestone in the Pindaya Range of the southern Shan Plateau, for the first time in Myanmar. This bivalve family is characterized by a giant body size, by unusual shell form with wing-like flanges, and by coarse-grained prismatic outer layer with rugose corals (Lophophyllidium, Ipcyphyllum etc) and bryozoans. Palaeogeographically, they are restricted to low-latitude Tethyan and Panthalassan regions.

The topographic map of this area are 84 L/6 and 84 O/4.This research paper is mainly described the river terraces, low denudational hill, denudational plain, recent fluvial deposits of sand bars and other distinctive geomorphological features on in this area. The research area is constituted of a small segment of the western margin of the Central Belt of Myanmar and it comprises on almost complete Cenozoic succession. The study area is composed of sedimentary rocks belonging to the Irrawaddy Formation (Miocene-Pliocene) and Alluvium of Quaternary deposits (Pleistocene-Holocene). The topographic features of the study area are characterized by mostly flat valley plain and some of rolling-hills. Myathalum hill and Paryit Taung are the most conspicuous physiographic features of the study area. Irrawaddy Formation consists of fine to medium-grained, massive, and white to buff coloured, loosely consolidated with beds of grey clay and various type of conglomerates. Cross-bedding, calcareous concretion and silicified fossil woods are common. The Quaternary deposits of Plateau Gravel is composed of quartz pebbles and they are loosely aggregated in the deep-red ferruginous sand. The Landforms of the present study area are figured by fluvio and glacio denudational processes. They are small to medium sized low denudational hills are distributed on the denudational plain. The hill is associated with distinct gully erosion on the slope and less eroded on gentle slope of covered by grass and sparse natural vegetation and bad-land topography. There are five terrace levels are also developed within the study area (T1 to T5). Higher level channel bar (Cb1) is covered by cultivated land during the dry season and lower level channel bars (Cb2) are really active flood plain composed of loose sand and silt. | Banmaw University Research Journal, 2019 June, Vol.10 No.1, (Pg.287-299) | ||

The study area is situated nearly south of the Banmaw plain. The study area, Theinlin Village, is mainly composed of Quaternary alluvial sediments. The alluvium sediments are sandy clay and silty clay. Most of the farms are cultivated on this alluvium plain. The water samples were collected from different four sources to know the water qualities related with health. Samples (1, 3 and 4) are satisfactory, to use as drinking water. But sample 2 is not clean and safe due to the presence of high content of turbidity and conductivity.The common disease in villager are Hypertension, Diabetes and other complication such as Malaria. Therefore the most common disease found in villagers were not related to geology condition of the study area. But I would like to suggest the villagers that be careful not to birth mosquitoes, waste should be properly disposed of and the construction of drainage channels, ponds and wells are provided with a shelter and insulated with water from contamination, avoid foods that are too salty, too sweet, and food should be eaten in a balanced way. | Banmaw University Research Journal, 2020 June, Vol.11 No.1, (Pg.413-421) | ||
38 | Dr Win Khant Associate Professor | Report On the Study of Geological Structures around Naungcho Area, Northern Shan State | Structurally, the whole area is generally affected by a regular pattern of nearly N-S trending longitudinal faults and nearly E-W trending cross-fault. In the study area, two anticlines (Kyaukkyan anticline and Goktwin anticlines) and one syncline (Letpengon syncline) are present. In the present area, there are two main types of fault: longitudinal faults (Kyaukkyan faults F1, F2) and three major cross faults (Nam Panse Chaung Fault F3, Goktwin Fault F4 and F5-F5). The main force directions interpreted from the joint rose diagram (Lower and Upper Paleozoic units). In the lower Paleozoic units (Kyaingtaung and Nyaungbaw Formation) the longitudinal joints generally run N50ºE - S50ºW and the cross joints in the N40ºW – S40ºE direction. In the Upper Paleozoic units (Zebingyi Formation, Maymyo Dolomite Formation and Thitsipin Formation), the longitudinal joints are generally trending N30ºE – S30ºW and cross joints N60ºW - S60ºE direction. The central part of the Shan Massif was uplift and erosional process was taken due to Hercynian orogeny. At the end of Paleozoic Era, a gentle tectonic movement with little considerable metamorphism caused an uplift of the Eastern Highland and fracturing of brittle Maymyo Dolomite. The famous Kyaukkyan fault is terminated in this area. A sudden movement along the Kyaukkyan fault had caused the strongest Myanmar earthquake (with R.M.8) felt on 23, May, 1912. | Banmaw University Research Journal, 2009 December, ol.1 No.1, (Pg.120-132) | ||
39 | Dr Win Khant Associate Professor | Ore mineralogy & Mineral Chemistry of pyrite, Galena, &Sphalerite at Soripiesa Prospect Area, Sumbawa Island, Indonesia | The Soripesa prospect area is located at Maria village, Wawo district, Bima region in the East Sumbawa Island, Indonesia. Lithology is dominantly composed of a lithic-crystal tuff of andesitic and dacitic composition and bedded limestone. The polymetallic epithermal quartz veins are hosted by andesitic volcaniclastic rocks. Within these veins, multiphases, colloform-crustiform, bedding to massive textures with pyrite, sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite, chalcocite, azurite, and malachite are observed. Selected samples were analyzed by using ore microscopy and SEM-EDX. Ore minerals show replacement, ex-solution, colloform, and zonal textures. The paragenesis diagram was made from a careful study of polished sections and thin sections. Textures of ore minerals such as banded, exsolution, replacement, and zone, have been interpreted to correspond to the order of deposition. In pyrite, the average content of Co (0.45 wt%) is higher than Ni content (0.14 wt%) and it means that their origin may be hydrothermal origin. Average content ratio, Co:Ni is 2.81. Galena shows a low Ag content of 0.07 % in average. But they show a high Au content of 1.48% in average. Sphalerite shows a low Fe content of 1.04 % in average and occasionally chalcopyrite inclusion/disease also occurred. Ga and Ge contents are also high in sphalerite. Co>Ni in pyrite, low content of Ag in Galena, low content of Fe and mole% FeS in sphalerite, high content of Ga and Ge, and log (Ga/Ge) in sphalerite, show that pyrite, galena, and sphalerite from Soripesa prospect area were formed under low temperature condition of hydrothermal fluid. | Journal of Southeast Asian Applied Geology, 2012, January-June, Vol.4(1), (Pg.1-14) | ||

This area is a part of Cenozoic Calc-alkaline volcanic inner Banda-Sunda Arc. The dominant lithology of Soripesa prospect area are a lithic-crystal tuff of andesitic and dacitic composition and bedded limestone. There have five main polymetallic epithermal quartz veins in the Soripesa prospect area, namely, Rini vein, Jambu air vein, Dollah vein, Merpati vein, and Arif vein. Those quartz veins are hosted mainly in andesitic volcaniclastic rocks. Fluid inclusion study on those quartz veins is vey important to know the condition of hydrothermal fluids and their origin. Fluid inclusion study is conducted at the laboratory of Earth Resources Engineering Department, Kyushu University, Japan. Homogenization temperature, freeze temperature, eutectic temperature, and melting temperature can be known from fluid inclusion study. Based on fluid inclusion study, formation temperatures of all veins are between 250°C-260°C. Melting temperature is between -0.2 to -3°C. Based on the melting temperature, salinity (wt% NaCl equiv.) of fluid inclusions is calculated by using Bodnar’s equation. Paleodepth of formations and pressure of trapping are also estimated by using formation temperature and salinity. Based on Hass (1971) diagram, estimated paleodepths of formations are 270 m for Merpati vein, 400 m for Dollah vein, 480 m for Rini vein, 570 m for Arif vein, and 680 m for Jambu Air vein, respectively. Pressure of trapping can also be estimated from depth of formation, density of lithostatic overburden, and gravity; 72 bars for Merpati vein, 106 bars for Dollah vein, 127 bars for Rini vein, 151 bars for Arif vien, and 180 bars for Jambu Air vein, respectively. | Journal of Southeast Asian Applied Geology, 2012, July-December, Vol.4(2), (Pg.77-89) | ||

43 | Dr Win Khant Associate Professor | Alteration of Mineral and Quartz Textures of Epithermal Quartz Veins at Soripesa Prospect Area, Indonesia | The Soripesa prospect area is located at Maria village, Wawo district, Bima regency, West Nusa Tenggara Province, Sumbawa Island, Indonesia. This area is mainly occupied by andesitic volcaniclastic rocks, dacitic volcaniclastic rocks, bedded and fossiliferous limestone, and Quaternary volcanic rocks. Representative samples, collected from near five quartz veins were selected to make thin sections. Thin sections were analyzed using a polarizing light microscope. Selected nine samples were used to identify the quantitative mineralogy. XRD data were obtained by using a Rigaku RINT 2100 at the Earth Resources Engineering Department, Kyushu University, Japan. The primary minerals of host rocks of the veins are quartz, orthoclase, plagioclase, pyroxene, amphibole minerals, mica and other mafic minerals. The common alteration minerals in this prospect area are quartz, epidote, chlorite, pyrite, illite, and smiectite. Minor amount of other alteration minerals are kaolinite, alunite, rutile, and anatase. Propyllitic alteration (epidote + chlorite) occurs in most host rocks of the veins. Most common quartz textures of those veins in the research area are primary textures (comb, colloform bands, and crustiform bands, zonal, cockade, and moss). Alteration mineral are altered under in terms of interaction of near-neutral chloride fluids and are crucial in distinguishing low-sulphidation types of epithermal systems. Quartz textures in this research belong to typical characters of low-sulphidation epithermal system and they can help to identify the morphology of veins such as face-controlled and parallel-controlled. Quartz textures indicate that the epithermal quartz veins in the Soripesa prospect area are formed at the near surface. | Shwebo University Research Journal, 2014 November, Vol.5 No.1, (Pg.79-88) | ||

This area is mainly composed of alluvial sediments, trachyte, dacite and andesite igneous rocks. 7 samples are collected, cut and polished to make thin-sections. Thin-sections are investigated under polarized microscope to know the detailed mineral compositions and their descriptions. This area belongs to copper-gold mineralization belt. This research area is not so far from famous gold mine (Kyaukpahtoe). Although gold occurrence of these area are under control by hydrothermal system, host rocks and mineralization style is different. Ever (Htawara) Mine company is producing gold at about 8 miles from Kawlin-Wuntho to Pinlebu. Gold bearing quartz veins are hosted in Andesite at this research area. Mineralization are found under lithologic control and structural controls. Weak to moderate clay-pyrite alteration intensively developed in these volcanic rocks. Mineralization is characterized by stock work quartz veins in Mawgyi andesite units. Mineralization style is epithermal to mesothermal hydrothermal deposit types. Columnar joints are found in trachyte on the top of Natshin taung. Columnar diameter is about 3 to 5 feet in plan view and side view is about 20 feet in outcrop. column diameter is dependent on the cooling rate (T/t) with narrow columns signifying faster cooling and wide columns signifying slower cooling.

The Sumbawa Island forms as a part of the west-east trending Cenozoic calc-alkaline volcanic inner Sunda-Banda magmatic Arc. Soripesa prospect area is mainly occupied by lava and breccia of andesitic and basaltic composition, bedded fossiliferous limestone, dacitic lava and breccias. The main quartz veins are Jambu Air vein, Arif vein, Rini vein, Dollah vein, and Merpati vein. Those quartz veins are hosted in andeisitic volcaniclastic rock unit. SEM-EDX, XRD, and fluid inclusion studies are used in this research. Based on the Fe mole %, sulfur activity (a_(s_2 )) is a little higher and between 10-10 – 10-11. Ga/Ge ratios of sphalerites indicate that the formation temperatures of sphalerite are between 180°C and 240°C. Sulfur activity and formation temperature plots show the intermediate sulphidation state of epithermal system. Fluid inclusions data show that Plots of Th and salinity of quartz vein, generally, show the trends of boiling processes. Estimated paleodepth of formation of quartz veins are around 270 to 550 m based on formation temperature and salinity using boiling curve point. Fluid flow direction can be assumed from Jambu Air vein to Merpati vein. Jambu Air vein is formed at the lower part of vein system and Merpati vein formed at the upper part of system. | Banmaw University Research Journal, 2020, June, Vol.11, No.1, (Pg.422-431) | ||
46 | Dr Win Khant Associate Professor | Sphalerites Composition and Sulphidation Stateofpolymetallic Epithermal Quartz Veins at Soripesaprospect Area, Sumbawa Island, Indonesia | The Soripesa prospect area is located at Maria village, Wawo district, Bima region in the eastern part of Sumbawa Island, Indonesia. This area is related with Cenozoic Calc-alkaline volcanic inner Banda-Sunda Arc. There have five main polymetallic epithermal quartz veins in the Soripesa prospect area, namely, Rini vein, Jambu air vein, Dollah vein, Merpati vein, and Arif vein. The dominant lithology is a lithic-crystal tuff of andesitic and dacitic composition and bedded limestone. Elemental compositions of sphalerites were analysed using Scanning Electron Microscope with energy-dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX) method to identify their environment of ore deposition. Detected elements in sphalerite are Zn (63.48 wt.%), S (33.3 wt.%), Fe (1.04 wt.%), Ga (0.7 wt.%), Ge (0.54 wt.%), Cd (0.7 wt.%), and Ag (0.2 wt.%). Au content is below detection limit in all sphalerite. Ga/Ge ratios of sphalerites geothermometry indicate that the formation temperatures of sphalerite are between 180°C and 240°C. Based on the Fe mole %, sulfur activity ( ) is a little higher and between 10-10 – 10-11. Sphalerite are found in pyritic ore fields and low temperature condition. Sulfur activity and formation temperature plots show that ore-forming processes are formed under intermediate sulphidation state of epithermal system. | Myanmar Academy of Arts and Sciences (MAAS), 2020, July, Vol. XVIII.

47 | Daw Khaing Mar Oo Lecturer | Petrography and Petrogenesis of Metamorphic Rocks exposed in the Thetkegyin Area, Patheingyi Township, Mandalay Region | The study area is situated about 12 km north-east of Patheingyi Township, Mandalay Region. The area under the present investigation forms part of the highly deformed metamorphic rocks of so called Mogok Metamorphic Belt (MMB). The research work focused on the petrography and petrogenesis of metamorphic rock of the study area. The main rock units are phlogopite marble,diopside-phlogopite marble, calc-silicate rock, staurolite schist,quartzite, sillimanite schist, and garnet schist. These rocks mainly show granoblastic texture, porphyroblastic texture and schistose texture. According to the occurrence of the mineral assemblages, lower- to upper- amphibolite facies and medium to high grade regional metamorphism are observed. The age of the metamorphic rocks of the study area is assumed to be contemporaneous with the Mogok Metamorphic Belt on the basis of lateral continuity and lithologic similarities and presented here confirm the early Paleozoic age. | Banmaw University Research Journal, 2020, June, Vol.11, No.1, (Pg.432-440) | ||
48 | Daw Shwe Nan Wai Lecturer | Petrogenetic Study of Late Tertiary Igneous Rocks in Mogok Metamorphic Belt, Nweyon Area, Singu Township, Mandalay Region | The investigated area is situated in the northern part of Singu Township and southern part of the Thabeikkyin Township which is about 59 miles north of Mandalay. It lies between Shan highland to the east and the Sagaing fault to the west. It is a part of the Central granitoid belt of Myanmar and mainly composed of the rocks of Mogok Metamorphic Belt. The Late Tertiary igneous rockof syenite, leucogranite, biotite microgranite, pegmatite, aplite and alkali basalt areintrudedinto the metamorphic units of Mogok Metamorphic Belt. The nepheline syenite and associated alkaline syenite represent the limestone syntaxis, in the form of local desilication of granitic magma by limestone. The depth of emplacement of these granitic rocks is considered to be epizonal to mesozonal and the age of the igneous activity in the research area might have been formed during Tertiary period, especially at Miocene in contemporaneous with the emplacement of Kabaing granite. Singu basalt is within plate alkali basalt of Pleistocene in age. Dykes and veins of pegmatite and aplite most probably represent the late-stage differentiates of the later. | Banmaw University Research Journal, 2020, June, Vol.11, No.2, (Pg.464-477) | ||
