Kyaukka Taung area is situated 7 miles east of Monywa, Monywa Township, Sagaing Region. It is situated exactly in the eastern trough of the Central Myanmar Tertiary Basin, Shwebo-Monywa plain province. The peculiarly-shaped mound of the Kyaukka Taung is in the form of a flow that capped on the Pegu strata. Macroscopically, the basalt at Kyaukka taung is compact, fine-grained, and dark-green, dark-grey, reddish-grey in color, some of which are quite vesicular.
