| Abstract | The rock units in the study area are sub-horizontal clastic sediments in four lithostratigraphic units of Sao Khua Formation. The rocks are reddish brown to purplish grey siltstones, mudstones with calcrete nodules and bioturbation burrows, conglomeratic to very finegrained reddish brown to greyish white well sorted sandstones showing many sedimentary structures such as graded bedding, cross-bedding, and cross-lamination. Petrographic studies indicate that the sandstones in the study area are sublitharenite and subarkose. The depositional environment indicated is meandering rivers in semi-arid to arid paleoclimate. |
