The mining exploration project for tin at Klian Intan, Perak, focused on identifying and evaluating potential tin deposits within the region, known for its rich mining history. The project involved extensive fieldwork, including geological mapping, soil and sediment sampling, as well as panning and trenching activities to locate primary and secondary tin sources. A multidisciplinary team of geologists and technicians conducted site assessments in dense tropical terrain, where they examined mineralized zones and collected data on lithology and geomorphology. The use of traditional panning techniques in streams and riverbeds played a crucial role in detecting cassiterite—the primary ore of tin—while modern tools assisted in mapping and documenting the area. The outcome of this exploration provided valuable insights into the viability of sustainable tin mining operations in Klian Intan, contributing to the potential revitalization of the region’s mining industry
