Answer:

Geological maps

Explanation:

A geological map is usually defined as a map that is commonly used to show distinct geological features such as the intrusive bodies, faults, folds and also shows the distribution of the mineral deposits in a particular area.

This type of map provides an idea about how the minerals are oriented and up to what extent they are present in any particular direction. And also helps in understanding the location of the faults that are associated with these mineral deposits. These mineral deposits include copper, zinc, iron, and other types of mineral deposits.

By the use of these maps, the geologists decide which method to be implemented in order to extract these mineral resources.

If a rock is metamorphosed but does not contain foliation or lineation, what has probably happened to the rock?

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

One of the first scenario is that the rock might not contain minerals that would result in the formation of foliations and lineations in the rock.

The bulk of a rock fabric depends on mineral orientations and their unique properties. This is why platy minerals play very important roles in defining the fabric of a rock.

Another scenario is that, the rock might have exceeded the extreme of metamorphism where melting is approached. All fabrics will eventually fan out and be destroyed.

Tropic of Cancer- This is also known as "Northern Tropic." It is said that at the time of its naming, the sun was positioned in the Cancer constellation (one of the constellations of the zodiac). It is located at 23.5 degrees north of the equator and runs through the regions mentioned above.

Tropic of Capricorn- This is also known as "Southern Tropic." It is said that at the time of its naming, the sun was positioned in the Capricorn constellation. It lies at 23.5 degrees south of the equator and runs through the regions mentioned above.
