Geologic map of E Coprates Chasma

Geologic map of E Coprates Chasma

Figure 20: This unit map is simplified from the Witbeck et al. (1991) map, but uses the same notation, for more information see the original map. The following units are defined on that map: As - Slide material, Hcc - Chasma chaotic material, Avfs - Smooth floor material, Avfr - Rough floor material, Hpl3 - Smooth unit, Npl2 - Subdued cratered unit, Hf - Younger fractured material, Hr - Ridged plains, HNu - Undivided material. The black line and circle denote a fault that was identified by Witbeck et al. (1991) and is discussed in this study. Furthermore, the flat-topped areas along the top of the massif are marked as younger fractured material (Hf), but this study indicates that they are underlain by the same layered stack.
