Coastal Cartography of the quaternary deposits between Punta Arenas and Rio Quema Angusta – Peninsula Brunswick. Tierra del Fuego – Strait of Magellan – Chile
The 6th map of the Coastal Atlas of the Strait of Magellan is presented (1:50,000 scale). The map refers to sheets 84 and 101 of the Chilean I.G.M., and was made using the peliminary cartography by E.NA.P. (Empresa Nacional de Petroleo) and the Chilean I.G.M., aerial photos by S.A.F. (Servicio Aerof...
