Lokasi penelitian berada di bagian Tengah dan Timur Pulau Bintan Kepulauan
Riau. Secara administrasi termasuk ke dalam 3 kecamatan yaitu kecamatan
Mantang, Gunung Kijang dan Kota Tanjungpinang. Penelitian terfokus kepada 3
lokasi pengambilan sampel yang terletak pada DTA Ganet, DTA Kawal dan DTA
Cidompak. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu untuk mengetahui karakteristik
morfometri dan geokimia dari lapukan granit pada sampel yang di uji. Metode
yang dilakukan secara umum ialah kegiatan lapangan, analisis laboratorium dan
analisis studio. Kegiatan lapangan berupa akuisisi sampel dengan metode
trenching. Analisis laboratorium dilakukan dengan uji XRF dan XRF. Analisis
studio digunakan untuk mengetahui karakteristik morfometri daerah tangkapan
air. Berdasarkan hasil uji analisis XRD dan XRF, terdapat mineral gibbsit dan
kandungan AL2O3 dengan nilai 35% - 47% pada tingkat pelapukan V stasiun 24,
yang menunjukan ciri endapan bauksit mendekati ekonomis dengan morfologi
undulasi dani nilai Hipsometri 0,27 yang mengindikasikan stadium erosi tua.

 ABSTRACT

The research sites are located in the Central and Eastern part of Bintan
Island of Riau Islands Province. Administratively, the research location included
into 3 districts such as Mantang District, Gunung Kijang District and
Tanjungpinang City. The study focused on 3 sampling sites located on watershed
Ganet, watershed Kawal and watershed Cidompak. The purpose of this study, to
determine the characteristics of morphometry and geochemistry from weathered
granite on the sample location. The method conducts on this research including
field observation, laboratory analysis and also studio analysis. Field observation
conducted to retrieve the sample for further laboratorium analysis, acquisition
data using trenching method. Laboratory analysis was done by XRF and XRF test.
Studio analysis is used to determine the morphometric characteristics of
catchment area near the location of sample colected. Based on XRD and XRF
analysis results, there are gibbsite minerals and AL2O3 content of 35% - 47 in
station 24, which shows the characteristics of bauxite deposits. The morphology
near the sample location according to ASTER-DEM is undulating with nearly
plain area to its downstream. Based on hipsometric integral, station 24 has value
of 0,27 which mean the erosional stage is at old phase.
