Presentation<br />
The government of the State of Tocantins has been able to account<br />
for environment in public policies planning and management. Through the Ecological<br />
and Economic Zoning Programme, considered our strategic point in order to make<br />
it possible to go further into economic development with environmental protection<br />
and conservation, SEPLAN has efficiently generated products that support Tocantins<br />
land management.<br />
Seeking to increase the list of products made available to society<br />
and municipal, state and federal agencies through the Ecologic and Economic Zoning<br />
Programme, I present now the work “Geology Sheet <strong>SB.23</strong>-V-C (<strong>Imperatriz</strong>)”, which<br />
was obtained after financial efforts from the State Treasure, the G7 Pilot Programme<br />
to conserve the Brazilian Rain Forest (PPG-7), through Environment Ministry and<br />
the World Bank.<br />
The study of Geology, <strong>do</strong>ne at low cost, had as main instruments<br />
satellite imagery, SEPLAN´s data base and cartographic products from CPRM and<br />
RADAMBRASIL, completed with field work. The main objective of this study was to<br />
generate information that had enough quality and the necessary quantity to achieve<br />
the Ecological and Economic Zoning of Bico <strong>do</strong> Papagaio. The geological units<br />
were described as to understand the history of the geologic evolution of the<br />
environment where the referred unit stands, the grade of rock cohesion and weathering<br />
and information about the present use and economic geologic potential. Furthermost,<br />
the present study supplies momentarily the gap of Programa Levantamentos<br />
Geológicos Básicos <strong>do</strong> Brasil – Brazil´s Basic Geological Surveys Programme<br />
surveys at scale 1:250.000, being a contribution given by this SEPLAN towards a<br />
better understanding of natural resources of State of Tocantins.<br />
