摘要

由于露头岩石单位是了解地球历史和岩石记录的关键,因此有必要保护可以看到这些岩石的地质遗迹,以便将来可以进入。每年都有许多个人、机构和野外考察团前往尼日利亚一些重要的内陆沉积盆地中可进入的经典地质露头进行考察。作为专业人士,我们必须爱护重要的露头,使它们能够在未来继续启迪和教育地球科学家。本研究的目的是清点这些要素(地质特征),以便将它们归类到各种感兴趣的地质地点(构造/结构、地层、地貌、矿物学、岩石学、水文学和古生物学地质群落),从而使它们得到普及和记录,供今后使用。因此,本文介绍了尼日利亚东南部省份的一些典型地质露头(断层和反褶构造、岩性-地层边界、河道填充物、山谷和洞穴、悬崖瀑布、矿化母岩/区域、火成岩露头和索引化石)。重点是对这些引人注目的地质特征进行清点和拍照记录。提出了有助于保护这些地质遗迹的可能的保护政策。此外,还利用实地信息绘制了一张地质图,记录了这些露头的位置。这将成为对地质研究和勘探、地质旅游和娱乐活动感兴趣的个人、机构和公司的实地指南。

Creating a Geosite Inventory for some Classic Outcrops in Nigeria’s Southeastern Province

Since outcropping rock units are key to understanding earth’s history and rock records, there is a need to preserve the geological sites where these rocks are seen for future accessibility. Numerous individuals, institutions and fieldtrip groups visit accessible, classic geologic outcrops every year across some key Nigeria’s inland sedimentary basins. As professionals, we must care for important outcrops so they can continue to enlighten and educate earth scientists well into the future. The aim of this study is to take an inventory of these elements (geological features) with the view of grouping them in various geological sites (tectonic/structural, stratigraphical, geomorphological, mineralogical, petrological, hydrological, and palaeontological geosites) of interests, thereby popularizing and documenting them for future use. Hence, this paper describes some of the classic geologic outcrops (faults and anticlinal fold structures, litho-stratigraphic boundaries, channel fills, valleys and caves, cliffs with plunging waterfalls, mineralized host rocks/zones, igneous emplacements and index fossils) in the southeastern province of Nigeria. Emphasis was on the inventory and photo-documentation of these striking geologic features. Possible preservation policies that could aid in the conservation of these geological sites have been suggested. In addition, a geosite map that captures the location of these outcrops was generated using field information. This will serve as a field guide for individuals, institutions, and companies interested in geological studies and exploration, geotourism and recreational activities.

期刊介绍: The Geoheritage journal is an international journal dedicated to discussing all aspects of our global geoheritage, both in situ and portable. The journal will invite all contributions on the conservation of sites and materials - use, protection and practical heritage management - as well as its interpretation through education, training and tourism. The journal wishes to cover all aspects of geoheritage and its protection. Key topics are: - Identification, characterisation, quantification and management of geoheritage; - Geodiversity and geosites; - On-site science, geological and geomorphological research: - Global scientific heritage - key scientific geosites, GSSPs, stratotype conservation and management; - Scientific research and education, and the promotion of the geosciences thereby; - Conventions, statute and legal instruments, national and international; - Integration of biodiversity and geodiversity in nature conservation and land-use policies; - Geological heritage and Environmental Impact Assessment studies; - Geological heritage, sustainable development, community action, practical initiatives and tourism; - Geoparks: creation, management and outputs; - Conservation in the natural world, Man-made and natural impacts, climate change; - Geotourism definitions, methodologies, and case studies; - International mechanisms for conservation and popularisation - World Heritage Sites, National Parks etc.; - Materials, data and people important in the history of science, museums, collections and all portable geoheritage; - Education and training of geoheritage specialists; - Pedagogical use of geological heritage - publications, teaching media, trails, centres, on-site museums; - Linking the United Nations Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (2005- 2014) with geoconservation.
