The geology and geomorphology of Gua Setir, Jeli, Kelantan

Gua Setir limestone hill's form thin ridges that elongates from north to south direction. It is upright throughoutly except for its north tip where it is shown to be leaning to the west. This limestone hill covers the length of 1300m, mean width of 80m, and highest peak of 100m. The study area...
