Overall Aim
To provide the community relevant territorial information in environmental and economic terms. To generate the product Sediment geochemistry of the El Salvador sheet in the standardized format of the Geochemical Unit, using the geological and geochemical obtained data.
Specific objectives
- To generate a geochemical database with the standardized format of the Geochemistry Unit.
- To generate a report complementary to the geochemical database, with the standardized format of the Geochemical Unit, including methodology and quality control aspects.
- To generate the needed annexed information for this kind of product, including an Annex of field Photographs.
Expected products
Geochemical Database
Project foundation
This product will allow the public to have geochemical and geological complementary information, obtained by the Geochemical Unit for the El Salvador sheet. This information is relevant for the following aspects:
- To evaluate the environmental quality of the El Salvador sheet, to determine potential contamination sources, and to design monitoring plans;
- To evaluate the presence of new prospective zones in the El Salvador sheet and along the metallogenic belts from the North of Chile.
