Mineralogy and rocks |
| Mountain |
- over 800 m |
- deep valleys between 400-500 m |
- strong tilt surfaces prevail (slopes) |
- made of strong rocks (metamorphic, magmatic, pleated sedimentary) |
| Hill |
- 300-800 m |
- deep valleys over 100 m |
- strong tilt surfaces prevail (slopes) to the plate areas (interfluves) |
- made of soft rocks (un-pleated sedimentary: sand, gravel, clay) |
| Plateau |
- over 300 m |
- deep valleys over 100 m |
- large interfluves prevail |
- made of soft rocks (un-pleated sedimentary: sand, gravel, clay), as well as string rocks (metamorphic, magmatic, pleated sedimentary) |
| Field |
- under 300 m |
- deep valleys under 100 m |
- the plate areas prevail (interfluves) |
- made of soft rocks un-pleated sedimentary, sand) |
