Note on radiometric age determination of samples of peat and wood from tin-bearing Quaternary deposits at Sungei Besi Tin Mines, Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Malaysia
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 May 2009
Summary
A radiometric age determination on wood in tin-bearing alluvium from Selangor gives a result of about 36,000 years B.P. This is consistent with the view that the deposits formed during a period of rejuvenation of river systems during the Pleistocene. Meagre palynological evidence indicates the deposit is late Pliocene or younger.
