Field Mapping
30. 9. 2020, at 12.21, written by Ines VidmarUnder the supervision of instructor, student will map a small enclosed field area with the approximate size of 3 km2. During the fieldwork, student will maintain field documentation (field notebook, field map, photo documentation) and collect representative rock samples. From the acquired field data, student will prepare a fair copy map of the mapped area ... Read more
