Facies Heterogeneity and Lobe Facies Multiscale Analysis of Deep-Marine Sand-Shale Complexity in the West Crocker Formation of Sabah Basin, NW Borneo [PDF]
Deepwater lobes constitute a significant volume of submarine fans and are primarily believed to exhibit a simple sheet geometry. However, recent studies interpret the geometries of these deep-marine lobes as distinct with respect to the complexity of the

Paleomagnetism of the Crocker Formation, northwest Borneo: Implications for late Cenozoic tectonics [PDF]
Tectonic models for Borneo’s Cenozoic evolution differ in several aspects, particularly in the extent to which they include paleomagnetic data suggestive of strong counterclockwise rotation between 30 and 10 Ma. Key areas are undersampled. We present the results of a paleomagnetic study of Eocene to Early Miocene sandstones from northwest Sabah ...

Facies Analysis Of The Late Eocene Deep-Marine Middle- To Outer-Fan Sequence Of The Crocker Formation In Tenom District, Sabah, Malaysia [PDF]
The Crocker Formation, Late Eocene to Middle Miocene in age, was deposited in a deep-marine environment by a turbidity current. Most of the facies identified in the field are related to the sedimentary bed-form structures belonging to Bouma sequences. These prominently include unit divisions such as Ta referring to grading sand, Tb for parallel laminae,

Deep-Sea Trace Fossils In The West Crocker Formation, Sabah (Malaysia), And Their Palaeoenvironmental Significance [PDF]
In the “flysch” series of the West Crocker Formation (Eocene–Oligocene), Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, trace fossils are fairly common although not ubiquitous. The trace fossils commonly occur as hypichnial semi- or full-reliefs on the sole of thin turbiditic sandstone beds (mainly Bouma Tc division) in the thinly bedded heterolithic sandstone-mudstone facies ...
