Geological Synthesis of the Province of Valencia at scale 1:200.000

Map showing the geological units classified according to chronostratigraphic and lithological criteria from the point of view of mineral resources. Each cartographic unit has an associated description and geological age. The geological and tectonic structure is represented by faults, thrusting and folding structures. This map, which covers the entire province of Valencia, has been drawn up by the Geological Survey of Spain as part of the "Basic Master Plan for the Natural Mineral Resources of the Valencian Community", the result of the Singularised Collaboration Agreement between the Department of Industry and Commerce of the Valencian Regional Government and the IGME in the field of research and management of the natural mineral resources of the Valencian Community. The agreement was signed in 2000, and work began that same year. The geological mapping of the province of Valencia was completed in 2002. It was carried out using the existing geological cartography of the Geological Map of Spain at a scale of 1:50,000, MAGNA, and the available geological cartography at a scale of 1:200,000. The information is in coverage format (ESRI) and is made up of a file with the cartographic units, contacts and faults, a file with the folding structures, a file with the lithostratigraphic legend and a file with the conventional geological symbols. The geological description, the geological age and the representation codes of the geological units can be found in three tables.本地图展示了从矿产资源勘查视角出发，依据年代地层学与岩石学标准划分的地质单元。每个制图单元均附带相关描述信息与地质时代标注。 地质与构造结构通过断层、逆冲构造与褶皱构造进行表征。 本地图覆盖瓦伦西亚全省全域，由西班牙地质调查局（Geological Survey of Spain，简称IGME）编制，属于《瓦伦西亚自治区天然矿产资源基础总体规划》的组成部分；该规划源于瓦伦西亚自治区工业与商务部与IGME签署的专项合作协议，协议聚焦瓦伦西亚自治区天然矿产资源的研究与管理领域。 该协议于2000年正式签署，同年启动项目工作，瓦伦西亚全省地质填图任务于2002年完成。本次制图依托现有1:5万比例尺西班牙地质图（MAGNA）的地质制图资料，以及公开可用的1:20万比例尺地质制图成果。 数据集采用ESRI Coverage数据格式存储，包含四类数据文件：分别为制图单元、接触界线与断层数据文件、褶皱构造数据文件、岩石地层图例数据文件，以及常规地质符号数据文件。地质单元的地质描述、地质时代及制图编码规则可通过三张数据表查阅获取。
