- Available TMR / TGA detailed photogeologic-geomorphic
coverage is indicated in green on the index above. This mapping
offers an inexpensive and unique source of information to the
explorationist, resource analysis, and anyone seeking oil/gas/mineral
prospects in the region.
Photography
- Most of this mapping was conducted utilizing special purpose
RC-9 photography taken with a 3.5-inch lens. This photography
offered a high 6-6.6x vertical exaggeration (one-degree of dip is
exaggerated in stereoscopic view to 61/2 degrees) to allow
identification of subtle folding and geomorphic expression. This
type of photography enabled the photogeologist to reliably map attitudes
in very low dip areas. Detailed analysis and interpretations were
completed on the aerial photos.
Interpretation
- An intensive and comprehensive reference search was carried
out, prior to each study, to provide the necessary background for the
analysis. Standard photogeologic methods were supplemented with detailed
geomorphic and structural analysis. Geologic information interpreted and
mapped during the studies included contacts, key beds, strikes and dips,
anticlines and synclines, and faults. Geomorphic aspects of the studies
included the analysis of drainage, erosional, tonal, and vegetative
patterns. Once norms were established for the relationships between
known geology and these patterns, subtle geologic information became
more apparent and anomalies in the patterns were easily identified and
mapped.
Results
- TMR / TGA mapped numerous geologic and geomorphic features
throughout the detailed studies. Detailed analysis of the information
presented on these maps provide numerous clues to subsurface features
and the development of subtle trends and prospective areas for the
entrapment of hydrocarbons and mineralized zones.
- Price is dependent on size and contiguous nature of the
purchase, in addition, cost depends on
