Mineral
A mineral is a naturally occurring solid chemical substance that is formed through geological
processes and that has a characteristic chemical composition, a highly ordered atomic
structure, and specific physical properties. By comparison, a rock is an aggregate of minerals and does not have a specific chemical
composition.

BATUAN (ROCKS)
DEFINISI BATUAN (ROCK) menurut Rekayasa Sipil (Teknik Sipil):
Material yang keras (hard) dan tahan lama (durable)
Material yang tidak dapat digali kecuali dengan menggunakan bahan peledak (blasting)
JENIS BATUAN BERDASARKAN ASAL USUL PEMBENTUKANNYA:

Batuan Sedimen (Sedimentary Rocks)
SIKLUS PEMBENTUKAN BATUAN

BATUAN BEKU (Igneous Rocks):
Batuan yang berasal dari magma cair, lahar yang membeku karena penurunan suhu.
Intrusive igneous rocks: diorite, gabbro, granite and
pegmatite that solidify below Earth's surface;
Extrusive igneous rocks such as andesite, basalt,
obsidian, pumice, rhyolite and scoria that solidify on or above Earth's surface.
CONTOH BATUAN BEKU
Coarse-grained: Granite, Syenite, Gabbro,
Diorite
21
Granite is a coarse-grained, light colored, intrusive igneous rock that contains mainly quartz and feldspar minerals.
CONTOH BATUAN BEKU
Fine-grained: Rhyolite, Trachyte, Basalt,
Andesite
Andesite is a fine-grained, extrusive igneous rock composed mainly of plagioclase with other minerals such as hornblende, pyroxene and biotite.
CONTOH BATUAN BEKU
Obsidian (high-silica glass)
23
Obsidian is a dark-colored volcanic glass that forms from the very rapid cooling of molten rock material. It cools so rapidly that crystals do not form.
CONTOH BATUAN BEKU
Pumice is a light-colored vesicular igneous rock. It forms through very rapid solidification of a melt. The vesicular texture is a result of gas trapped in the melt at the time of solidification.
CONTOH BATUAN BEKU
25
Welded Tuff is a rock that is composed of materials that were ejected from a volcano, fell to Earth, and then lithified into a rock. It is usually composed mainly of volcanic ash and sometimes contains larger size particles such as cinders (pyroclastic material similar to pumice).

BATUAN SEDIMEN
(SEDIMENTARY ROCKS)
29
Sedimentary rocks are formed by the accumulation of sediments.
Types of sedimentary rocks:
1) detrital sedimentary rocks such as breccia,
conglomerate, sandstone and shale, that are formed from solid particles derived from physical and chemical
weathering of rock, transported, deposited, compacted, and cemented into rocks
2) chemical sedimentary rocks such as rock salt and some limestones, that form when dissolved materials precipitate from solution; and,
3) organic sedimentary rocks such as coal and some
limestones which form from the accumulation of plant or animal debris.
BATUAN SEDIMEN

95% bagian terluar kerak bumi (16 km) adalah

75% batuan yang tersingkap di permukaan

99% dari batuan sedimen adalah: shale
Detrital Sedimentary Rocks
Sedimen Ukuran Batuan Sedimen
Gravel >2mm Conglomerate (partikel bulat)

Silt 1/16 – 1/256 mm Siltstone (shale)
Clay < 1/256 mm Claystone (shale)
Silt and clay Shale
Contoh Batuan Sedimen
Breccia is a clastic sedimentary rock that is composed of large (over two millimeter diameter) angular fragments. The spaces between the large fragments can be filled with a matrix of smaller particles or a mineral cement which binds the rock together.
Contoh Batuan Sedimen
33
Conglomerate is a clastic sedimentary rock that contains large (greater then two millimeters in diameter) rounded particles. The space between the pebbles is generally filled with smaller particles and/or a chemical cement that binds the rock together.
Contoh Batuan Sedimen
Sandstone is a clastic sedimentary rock made up mainly of sand-size (1/16 to 2 millimeter diameter) weathering debris. Environments where large amounts of sand can accumulate include beaches, deserts, flood plains and deltas.
Contoh Batuan Sedimen
35
Shale is a clastic sedimentary rock that is made up of clay-size (less then 1/256 millimeter in diameter) weathering debris. It typically breaks into thin flat pieces.
Contoh Batuan Sedimen
Coal is an organic sedimentary rock that forms mainly from plant debris. The plant debris usually accumulates in a swamp environment. Coal is combustible and is often mined for use as a fuel.
CHEMICAL SEDIMENTARY ROCKS
Carbonates:
Limestone (Mineral calcite: CaCO3)
Dolomite [Mineral dolomite: CaMg(CO3)2]
Evaporites:
Gypsum (CaSO4.2H2O) Rock Salt (NaCl)
Fossil Rocks:
Fossiliferous Limestone (Calcite fosil berukuran
pasir atau lebih besar)
Limestone is a rock that is composed primarily of calcium carbonate. It can form organically from the accumulation of shell, coral, algal and fecal debris. It can also form chemically from the precipitation of calcium carbonate from lake or ocean water. Limestone is used in many ways. Some of the most common are:
39
Rock Salt is a chemical sedimentary rock that forms from the evaporation of ocean or saline lake waters. It is also known by the mineral name "halite". It is rarely found at Earth's surface, except in areas of very arid climate. It is often mined for use in the chemical industry or for use as a winter highway treatment. Some halite is processed for use as a seasoning for food.

Batuan Metamorf
43
Metamorphic rocks have been modified by heat, pressure and chemical process usually while buried deep below Earth's surface. Exposure to these extreme conditions has altered the mineralogy, texture and chemical composition of the rocks.
There are two basic types of metamorphic rocks:
1) foliated metamorphic rocks such as gneiss, phyllite, schist and slate which have a layered or banded
appearance that is produced by exposure to heat and directed pressure; and,
2) non-foliated metamorphic rocks such as marble and quartzite which do not have a layered or banded
appearance.
Batuan Metamorf
Terbentuk akibat berubahnya komposisi
kimiawi dan tekstur dari batuan, perubahan ini disebabkan oleh panas dan tekanan
Selama proses batuan asal tidak mencair Terjadi kristalisasi mineral and perubahan
struktur komposisi mineral yang membentuk mineral baru
45
Gneiss is foliated metamorphic rock that has a banded appearance and is made up of granular mineral grains. It typically contains abundant quartz or feldspar minerals.
Quartzite is a non-foliated metamorphic rock that is produced by the metamorphism of sandstone. It is composed primarily of quartz.
47
Slate is a foliated metamorphic rock that is formed through the metamorphism of shale. It is a low grade metamorphic rock that splits into thin pieces.
JENIS BATUAN METAMORF

Phyllite: memiliki komposisi yang hampir

53
Transportasi Hasil Pelapukan Batuan
Residual Soil
a) top soil and colluvium
c) young residual soil b) mature residual soil
Alluvial soils (transportasi oleh air)
55
ALLUVIAL soil is formed when a soil carrying stream gradually loses its carrying capacity with decreasing velocity. In slowing down,
a river does not have sufficient power to keep the large particles of soil suspended; these particles settle to the riverbed. Further decrease in velocity causes smaller particles to settle. As the river becomes slow and sluggish (as in the lowlands where its gradient becomes small), it holds only the extremely fine particles in suspension. These particles are deposited, finally, at the mouth of the river, where they form DELTAS of fine-grained soil
Lacustrine soils (pengendapan di danau)
Freshwater lake deposits are called LACUSTRINE soils. They are fine grained soils resulting from material
brought into freshwater lakes by streams or rivers.
Aeolian soils (transportasi oleh angin)
57
Colluvial soils (transportasi oleh gravitasi)
COLLUVIAL soil consists of mixed deposits of rock fragments and soil materials accumulated at the bases of steep slopes through the influence of gravity.
