Each individual sedimentary bed has its own unique assemblage and occurs in a stratigraphic succession which allows for close stratigraphic correlations to be made within the Tertiary of Mae Moh Group. The ESR spectra of sediments confined within the basin at the stratigraphic depth between 100 m and 800 m were carried out. The ESR spectra corresponding to Fe3+, Mn2+, SO-3, SO-2, CO-2, CO-3 and E’1 were observed. This result indicated that the sediment consisted of iron oxide (Fe2O3), quartz and calcite (CaCO3).}, journal = {American Journal of Applied Sciences}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
