19. GUNUNG KUBING
The metamorphic changes in the Sharp Formation are due to granite intrusions that penetrated previously deposited sedimentary rocks (Kelapa Kampit & Sharp Formation) during the Paleozoic era. The area's predominantly hilly terrain, marked by kerangas forest vegetation, is essential for local habitat preservation and water recharge.
External geological processes, particularly erosion along river flows in Gunung Kubing, have created pits on sedimentary rock surfaces, showcasing the dynamic interplay of natural forces. Batu Lake, a significant feature of the Gunung Kubing geosite, is interpreted by the local community as evidence of past geological activities in the region.
