Abstract
Regional geology is the link between global continental geology and local geology. Modern regional geology seeks to synthesis the work of early explorers all the way to modern surveys by governments, academic scientists and earth scientists involved in exploration and exploitation of ores, coal, hydrocarbon and water resources. In recent years, the information required for a complete appreciation of regional geology includes a large variety of geochemical and geophysical observations. Paramount among these are 2D and 3D seismic surveys that provide key insights that particularly in crustal domains greatly supplement information obtained from surface geological maps and wells. This introductory chapter is supplemented by the set of global maps presented in chapter 69.
