That has nothing to do with cartography. That's geology.
Geology often uses cartography to display data and various spatial analysis methods to analyze data, but what you're describing is purely geology.
Sorry if I sound snippy... But as a geologist, we get a bit annoyed when one of the major discoveries of our field is attributed to "those darn geographers"! :)
