2. Developed work, Observations
Developed work
• Georeferencing and composing of four maps with Geographic Coordinates
of Reservoirs and Mineral Occurrences - Scale 1:1 000 000.
• Geographic Coordinate System: GCS_WGS_1984
• Datum: D_WGS_1984 in Geographic Information System
• Example of creating a database of Mineral Occurrences in GIS for the
province of Niassa.
• Creating a database of Potential Areas in GIS for the province of Niassa
• Creating a database of current Title licenses in GIS for the province of
Niassa
• Overlap of the database created from Mining Titles, Potential Areas and
Mineral Occurrences Map of the Reservoirs and Mineral Occurrences of the
Province of Niassa (Scale 1: 1,000,000) based on the edge of the
provinces.
• Developing a provisional map for consideration and subject to change, in
TIFF format for Niassa Province where they represent Mining Titles
(Licences), Mineral Occurrences and Potential Areas on the Map of
Reservoirs and Mineral Occurrences of the Province of Niassa (Scale 1:
1000 000). Joao Mendes 2011

7. Complete work
• Created a database of Mineral Occurrences in
GIS for all provinces of Mozambique.
• Created a database of Potential Areas for
mineral occurences in GIS for all provinces of
Mozambique.
• Creating a database of current licenses in GIS
for all the provinces in Mozambique on a
Geological setting.
