This companion volume to the author's Geological Evolution of South East Asia (1989) is the first and only book to give an analysis of the oil, gas, and mineral deposits of Southeast Asia, including its economic geology. The stratigraphy, structure, hydrocarbon and coal deposits of the major Tertiary basins are described, and regional similarities and differences are analyzed. Among the areas featured are the copper and gold-silver deposits of the Philippines and Indonesia; the Sundaland peninsular core, considered the foremost source of tungsten and tin; and the declining tin mines of Malaysia and Thailand. This comprehensive survey will interest both the economic geologist and researcher of oil and mineral deposits.

Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
`Because of the emphasis on description, the book will retain its value as various geotectonic theories and process-focused hypotheses wax and wane. The author's personal opinions are clear, something which I found refreshing and entertaining, not least because he has a very long and extensive practical experience of the region with a broad range of interests. The book provides an extremely useful introduction to South-East Asia and is notably much more readable than its earlier companion volume... the author is to be congratulated on a valuable achievement.'
