Geologic maps

Figure 1.72. Generalized geological map of the Seigoshi-Ugusu area (Shikazono, 1985a).

Geology of the province is composed of Paleozoic basements. Tertiary altered submarine volcanic and sedimentary rocks (Green tuff) and Quaternary volcanic rocks. The basements are shale, tuff, limestone and chert of unknown ages. A simplified geologic map is shown in Fig. 1.148.

Figure 1.168. Geologic map of the Ashio mining area, showing the mineral zoning in the Ashio rhyolitic body and the location of the Kajika deposits (after Ashio mine, partly revised) (Nakamura, 1970).

The test drillings will define the stratigraphical units in the area while the geophysics and geological mapping are used for extrapolation of the layers and for definition of geometry, see Figure 43.

Geologic maps constitute a familiar class of models. To map a sedimentary section, a geologist collects data at certain outcrops. He casts his observations in terms of the local stratigraphy, which is itself a model that simplifies reality by allowing groups of sediments to be lumped together into formations. He then interpolates among his data points (and projects beneath them) to infer positions for formation contacts, faults, and so on across his field area.

A miniaturized MB spectrometer MIMOS II was developed for the robotic exploration of Mars, where it provided fundamental information about mineralogical composition and alteration processes, helped to classify rocks and soils, aided geologic mapping, was instrumental in assessing habitability of past and present environments, and identified potential construction resources for future human explorers. The applicability of the instrument as a process monitor for oxygen production and prospecting tool for lunar ISRU has been demonstrated. The characterization of air pollution sources and the study of mixed-valence materials as a function of depth in soil are examples of terrestrial in situ applications. MIMOS lla with additional XRF capability will open up new applications.
