Geological map of Triton, with some major surface features labelled in the upper map. This is a list of named geological features on Triton. Catenae (crater chains)
The geology of Triton encompasses the physical characteristics of the surface, internal structure, and geological history of Neptune's largest moon Triton. With a mean density of 2.061 g/cm 3 , [ 1 ] Triton is roughly 15-35% water ice by mass; Triton is a differentiated body, with an icy solid crust atop a probable subsurface ocean and a rocky ...
Ohio produces three billion dollars worth of natural gas and $844 million of oil annually. Coal deposits were first recognized in the 1740s by early settlers and were mapped as early as 1752. Decreased demand due to increased natural gas production has reduced coal mining in the 2010s, although one underground mine and three surface mines ...

A geologic map or geological map is a special-purpose map made to show various geological features. Rock units or geologic strata are shown by color or symbols. Bedding planes and structural features such as faults , folds , are shown with strike and dip or trend and plunge symbols which give three-dimensional orientations features.
The geologic layers that make up the Cincinnati Arch are most easily viewed at roadcuts. Roadcuts are common along highways throughout the arch's range and are often studied by geologists and paleontologists alike.
Slidr Sulci is a major tectonic fault on Neptune's largest moon Triton. It crosses a wide variety of terrains on Triton, most prominently the cantaloupe terrain, an unusually-textured region resembling the skin of a North American cantaloupe. The fault is named after the River Sliðr of Norse mythology, whose waters in Hel are filled with swords.
The Permian Dunkard Group (Pd) is an area of rock, Early Permian in age, in the south of Ohio, southwestern Pennsylvania, West Virginia and the hilltops of the Georges Creek Basin of Maryland. [2] In Ohio, it is found primarily in Washington County. It is notable for being one of the few areas of Permian sediment east of the Mississippi River ...
