World Map - Tectonic Plates (1999) (Map) Black Coffee Mug

World Map - Tectonic Plates (1999) (Map) The "World Map - Tectonic Plates" is a geological map published in 1999. This map offers an illustrative representation of Earth's tectonic plates, which are the large, rigid segments that make up the lithosphere and float on the asthenosphere (the upper layer of the mantle). The map serves as a valuable educational tool for understanding plate boundaries, movements, and the geological phenomena associated with them, such as earthquakes and volcanic activities. This map provides a clear, comprehensive view of the tectonic plates globally.
