The methodology used for the execution of the above maps and
reports is briefly described in the following paragraphs.
Geology
Initially the following information of previous works is
placed on the 1:250,000 maps: petrographic analysis, geochemical and
chemical analysis, geocronological information, known mineral occurrences
and active mines. Additional information of areas that have a lack of data
are then collected by field work. All the outcroping that lead to the under
standing of the regional geology are described, with samples collected for
petrographic and chemical analysis and radiometric dating. The work aims
mainly at an objective knowledge of the economic geology, augmenting also
the tectonic, structural and stratigraphic knowledge of the region being
surveyed.
Geomorphology
; The geomorphology map contains the information relative to
all the relief forms interpreted on the radar imagery, separated by
different colors for: relative elevation, together with relief and areal
divisions of uniform structural morphology and morphoclimatology. The
legend used qualifies and arranges relief forms conforming to the order
of stream size and force of drainage depth. Special emphasis is placed on
mapped data with aspects relevant to regional planning.
Pedology
The field work conducted for pedological studies were aimed
at soil identification, geographic distribution, cartographic delimitation
