IPOH, Feb 8 — The three limestone hills – Gunung Terundum, Gunung Rapat and Gunung Lanno – in Batu Gajah, where quarrying activities have been going on, have been gazetted as the Mineral/Rock Basic Industry Economic Zone in the Batu Gajah District Council Local Plan 2025.

Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Saarani Mohamad said most of the caves located in the three hills were on the property of quarry operators and were not listed in the Kinta Valley Geopark which has 18 geosites and all of them are not located within the quarrying activities.
