Geology

This category includes all geological mapping information and the related geoscience geospatial data including geolithology, mineral, fossils, mining, exploration, and geological features.

  • Faulting

    G2G, G2E
    GF1100

    Large fracture in rock where movement has taken place

  • Geological Lithostratigraphic Unit

    G2G, G2E
    GF5000

    Area of geological rock units classified according to principal stratigraphic categories; which generally conforms to the Law of Superposition and commonly is stratified and tabular in form.

  • Geological Lithodemic Unit

    G2G, G2E
    GF6000

    A lithodemic unit is a body of intrusive, pervasively deformed, or highly metamorphosed rock, generally non-tabular and lacking primary depositional structures, and characterized by lithologic heterogeneity. The unit is defined entirely on the basis of lithogic character. In contrast to lithostratigraphic units, a lithodemic unit generally does not conform to the Law of Superposition.
