Database of the Spanish Inventory of Places of Geological Interest (IELIG) which, in accordance with Law 42/2007, must be drawn up and updated by the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and the Environment, with the collaboration of the Autonomous Communities and scientific institutions. Royal Decree 1274/2011, entrusts the IGME with the completion of this inventory, without prejudice to the actions that the Autonomous Communities, in the use of their powers, carry out to complete it in their respective territor...

The Southern Permian Basin Atlas (SPBA) project is a joint project of the Geological Surveys of the United Kingdom, Belgium, Denmark, the Netherlands, Germany and Poland. It was published in May 2010. It covers the British, Belgium, Dutch, German, Danish and Polish sectors. The atlas addresses the geological evolution and hydrocarbon potential per stratigraphic interval. The paleogeographic and tectonic evolution is covered, from the pre-Cambrian basement to the Holocene. In addition, to hydrocarbon explor...
