Abstract:
Total of two sediment cores were sampled at the Terengganu coastal water within TR
1 (longitude 5°40.4'N and latitude 103°13.0'E) and TR 2 (longitude 5°37.6'N and
latitude 103°26.3 'E) and concentration of heavy metals (Co, Cu, Pb and U), organic
carbon, sedimentation rates and sediment's age were examined in order to determine
the geochemical characteristic of these sediments .. The metal data were normalized to
Li as a conservative element to compensate for the natural textural and mineralogical
variability.
