In 2004, the Sociedad Geológica Mexicana (Geological Society of México) celebrated its first centenary. To mark this milestone, the society published (in Spanish) a collection of papers that present the state of the art in some areas of Mexican geology. The geological community will find in this English-language version of the volume valuable information on diverse topics related to the Mexican territory. This Special Paper focuses on three subjects: reviews of some of the geological provinces, major faults that constitute tectonic borders, and ore deposits. Papers are of general or regional character but provide a deep treatment of the themes and bring together useful information for researchers, students, technicians, and others interested in México. |
