Seismic refraction method image and map earth subsurface including fault region. The method able to full fill target that required in engineering application, mining, oil and gas sector and many other without damaging environment and habitat. The study was to map earth subsurface to identify center uplift at impact site of Bukit Bunuh, Lenggong Valley. Meteorite impact area gives a huge difference in the sense of landscape that could lead to huge boost for tourism. It is important to register
more » ... nggong Valley (survey site) as one of the few countries in the world that impact by meteorite millions year ago. Seismic refraction method correlated with borehole data to achieve a better accuracy of findings. On the other hand, faults that occur on the bedrock give some hint about ring of crater and boundary of impact area.
