What is Facies and Architectural Element Analysis of Braided Fluvial Succession: The Tertiary Sawah tambang Sandstone, Sawahlunto, Indonesia about?

## Abstract The Sawahtambang Sandstone Formation of Sawahlunto, Indonesia has hitherto never been studied in detail to ascertain its depositional processes and its palaeoenvironment. The Sawahtambang Sandstone has more than 394 m thickness which consists of conglomeratic sandstone, sandstone, and clay-silt intercalation within which six lithofacies types (St, Sp, Sh, Ss, Fl, and Fm) appear creating iterated fining upward sequence. Herewith, this paper aims to replenish the avantgarde sedimentological interpretation of the Sawahtambang Sandstone in the intermontane basin of Indonesia based on outcrops along the Trans-Sumatra Highway. The study is attained through facies identification based on stratigraphic measuring section or outcrop profile, studio analysis consists of log analysis and superposition reconstruction, and architectural element delineation according to facies association. Structures in clay-silt facies consist of lamination and fissile whereas in the sand grained include planar and trough cross-bedding, planar lamination and granule lag, which depicts a lower-flow-regime sand channel. The architectural elements that made from facies association are identified into fi
