ABSTRAK
Di Selangor, sumber air bawah
tanah dijadikan sumber bekalan air alternatif bukan sahaja oleh
pelbagai jenis industri malah untuk kegiatan kuari. Kebanyakan telaga
abstraksi ini adalah di dalam akuifer batuan teretak sama ada di
dalam batuan metasedimen ataupun batuan granit. Memandangkan terdapat
pertambahan penggunaan air bawah tanah dari semasa ke semasa, adalah
penting untuk mengetahui cirian akuifer batuan teretak terutamanya
dalam batuan granit ini. Oleh itu, satu kajian telah dijalankan
untuk mencirikan sifat akuifer dalam batuan granit di Selangor.
Kaedah kajian melibatkan cerapan lapangan di kuari IJM Sungai
Buloh dan analisis data lubang gerudi, ujian pengepaman dan analisis
kimia air bagi semua telaga dalam batuan granit di Selangor. Hasil
kajian menunjukkan bahawa kawasan kajian terdiri daripada akuifer
retak terkekang hingga separa terkekang. Log telaga merekodkan kehadiran
lapisan tanah baki yang terdiri daripada lempung berpasir hingga
lempung keras dengan ketebalan sehingga 50 m. Lapisan bawah pula
dilapisi oleh batuan granit teretak yang bertindak sebagai lapisan
pengandung air. Kekar ditemui pada kedalaman 18 hingga 145 m. Analisis
lineamen menunjukkan korelasi positif dengan analisis ketakselanjaran
di lapangan; berarah timur laut - barat daya dan barat laut - tenggara,
selaras dengan zon sesar Kuala Lumpur dan Bukit Tinggi. Nilai keterusan
berjulat 2.6 hingga 36.1 m2/hari manakala julat kekonduksian hidraulik adalah 0.06
hingga 4.6 m/hari. Kadar luahan telaga adalah <10 m3/jam.
Jumlah pepejal terlarutnya adalah rendah (<372 mg/L). Kehadiran
retakan di dalam batuan granit akuifer ini telah membantu meningkatkan
keupayaannya sebagai akuifer. Analisis kimia menunjukkan ada telaga
yang berpotensi mengalami pencemaran.

ABSTRACT
In Selangor, groundwater is
used as an alternative water source in manufacturing industry and
also for quarry activity. These abstraction wells are located in
either fractured metasediment or granitic rock aquifer. It is important
to understand the characteristic of fractured rock aquifer especially
in granite due to its increasing demands. Therefore, this study
aimed on characterizing the aquifer behavior in fractured granite
in Selangor. The study methods used include detailed mapping at
IJM Quarry at Sungai Buloh and analysis
of well logs, pumping test analysis and well water chemistry for
wells in granite in Selangor. The results showed that the aquifer
type is confined to semi-confined aquifer. Well log indicates the
presence of residual soil layers comprises of sandy clay to hard
clay with thickness up to 50 m. The bottom layer is underlained
by fractured granite which acts as water bearing layer. The fractures
are observed at 18.27 to 144.9 m depth. Lineament analysis in study
area shows a positive correlation with discontinuity analysis in
the field in the direction of northeast-southwest and northwest-southeast,
which is in line with Kuala Lumpur and Bukit Tinggi fault zone.
Transmissivity values range from 2.6 to 36.1 m2/day while hydraulic conductivity values
from 0.06 to 4.6 m/day. Well discharge rate is <10 m3/h.
Total dissolved solids values are low (<372 mg/L). The fractures
in granite have increased its capability as an aquifer. Chemistry
analysis showed that there are possibility of few localized wells
being polluted.
