This paper aims to present the results obtained by the integration and analysis of geophysical data and Digital Elevation Model (DEM) images as an important tool in geological mapping in an area located in the Rio Maria Granite-Greenstone Terrane (RMGGT), in the Central Amazonian Province (Tassinari & Macambira, 2004) or Carajás Province (Santos, 2003), southeastern Amazonian Craton, Xinguara area, southeastern Pará. The aerogammaspectrometric and aeromagnetometric data used for this study were acquired by the Brazil-Canada Geophysical Project (PGBC) and the digital elevation images by the Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM). The integration and analysis of these data showed to be very useful for geological mapping, specially to distinguish the different lithologies and help to select key areas for more detailed verification during the field mapping. At the end of this study, it was elaborated a geological map for the selected area.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
