Note:
All information on soils were from the Land Resource Study 20 series of books
(Volumes 1 to 5), published by the Land Resources Division, Ministry of Overseas
Development , UK.
The
Table Association occurs:
 |
in
the Semporna Peninsula to the north of Tawau, |
 |
in
the Quoin Hill area, and |
 |
at
Mostyn. |
North
of Tawau, the association occurs on basalt lava flows, with pronounced terrace
features, which are believed to mark the original edges of successive flows. At
Mostyn, the lavas occupy an extensive plateau area and basalt boulders form
low knolls (mounds). In general, the lava are weathered to depths exceeding 20
ft.
