Many craters, interpreted to be of <a href="/wiki/Impact_crater" title="Impact crater">impact origin</a>, display a spectrum of modification styles and degradation states.

The figures for the relative ages of the basins are based on the density of superposed primary impact craters and stratigraphic relations. These results are uncertain, as the crater density of heavily cratered terrain on Mercury ranges from 11.2 to 17.4 × 10–5 km-2 for craters of diameters 20 km or greater (Guest and Gault, 1976). The results obtained are consistent with a qualitative assignment of relative age that is based on position and size of these ancient basins. </p><p>The basins have largely controlled subsequent geologic processes in the map area. Large concentrations of smooth plains deposits are found within the basin boundaries and at the intersections of rings of different basins.

This morphology is similar to that of the lunar basin <a href="/wiki/Grimaldi_(crater)" title="Grimaldi (crater)">Grimaldi</a> and is suggestive of an extended period of structural rejuvenation along the margins of the inner ring.

It consists of three discontinuous rings; ejecta may be mapped as far as 350 km from the outermost ring. The density of superposed craters suggests an age older than the Caloris Basin, either late c1 or early c2. A small unnamed basin at –48°, 136° may also have formed in this time interval, but its age is uncertain due to its partial burial by ejecta from crater <a href="/wiki/Delacroix_(crater)" title="Delacroix (crater)">Delacroix</a> (–44°, 129°). </p><p>The effects of the <a href="/wiki/Caloris_Basin" class="mw-redirect" title="Caloris Basin">Caloris impact</a> on the map area are not immediately apparent. No Caloris ejecta are evident, and most structural trends appear to be unrelated to this impact. However, near the west border of the map are two groups of large, overlapping craters centered at –31°, 183° and –49°, 182°. These groups appear to have formed simultaneously, as no specific stratigraphic sequence is evident. On the basis of crater clusters of similar appearance in the lunar highlands, which have been interpreted as <a href="/wiki/Imbrium_basin" class="mw-redirect" title="Imbrium basin">Imbrium</a> and <a href="/wiki/Orientale_basin" class="mw-redirect" title="Orientale basin">Orientale basin</a> secondaries (Schultz, 1976; Wilhelms, 1976b; Eggleton, 1981), these crater groups are interpreted to be Caloris Basin secondaries. Following the terminology developed by McCauley and others (1981) we have assigned them to the <a href="/wiki/Van_Eyck_Formation" class="mw-redirect" title="Van Eyck Formation">Van Eyck Formation</a>, Secondary-Crater Facies. These secondaries overlie Dostoevskij ejecta and thus confirm that basin as pre-Caloris. We determined a reference crater density for Caloris in the <a href="/wiki/Shakespeare_quadrangle" title="Shakespeare quadrangle">Shakespeare quadrangle</a> in order to correlate basin ages to that stratigraphic datum. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Beethoven_Basin" class="mw-redirect" title="Beethoven Basin">Beethoven Basin</a> (–20°, 124°), partly exposed in the Michelangelo quadrangle, consists of one ring 660 km in diameter. The exact age of Beethoven is uncertain; the density of superposed primary impact craters suggests a post-Caloris, late c3 age, but it may be as old as early c2 age due to the large range of error in the crater age estimate. The ejecta from Beethoven are very extensive east and southeast of the basin rim and are mappable as far as 600 km downrange from the rim. However, ejecta appear to be almost absent on the west side of the basin. The reason for this asymmetry is unclear; possibly Beethoven is the result of an oblique impact that produced an asymmetric ejecta distribution (Gault and Wedekind, 1978), or possibly basin radial texture in the western rim area has been obliterated by ejecta from <a href="/w/index.php?title=Valmiki_(crater)&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Valmiki (crater) (page does not exist)">Valmiki</a>. </p><p>The other basins in the quadrangle are <a href="/wiki/Michelangelo_(crater)" title="Michelangelo (crater)">Michelangelo</a>, <a href="/wiki/V%C4%81lmiki_(crater)" title="Vālmiki (crater)">Valmiki</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Bach_(crater)" title="Bach (crater)">Bach</a>.

It forms planar to gently undulating surfaces and both embays tracts of cratered terrain and fills crater floors. Both upper and lower contacts with other plains units are gradational.

The interpretation favored here is that large parts of these smooth plains are of volcanic origin, because (1) they are distributed regionally and have no obvious source for ballistic deposition; (2) large tracts are confined within basin depositional environments, analogous to the lunar maria; (3) indirect evidence elsewhere on Mercury exists for volcanic modification of impact craters (Schultz, 1977); and (4) possible volcanic collapse craters are associated with plains-filled craters (–61°, 161° and –57°, 102°).

J. Trask (McCauley and others, 1981). This method assumes that (1) all craters of a given size range initially resemble fresh craters and (2) degrees of impact erosion are constant for all craters within a morphologically defined sequence. Although these conditions hold generally, degradation may be accelerated locally by adjacent impact events and flooding by plains materials and, rarely, may be decelerated by structural rejuvenation of topographic elements of craters. Thus, the stratigraphic significance of crater morphology is only approximate. By analogy with lunar materials, all mapped crater materials are thought to be of impact origin. Only craters larger than 30 km in diameter are mapped. </p><p>The large basins of the Michelangelo quadrangle have been dated relatively by counting the cumulative density of superposed primary impact craters that have diameters greater than 20 km. This technique has proven to be of great value in dating lunar basins (Wilhelms, in press), where obvious superposition relations do not exist. Results of these crater counts indicate that Dostoevskij, presumed to be of c3 age (McCauley and others, 1981), is actually one of the oldest basins in the map area (early c1). Thus, strict morphological determination of stratigraphic age may be significantly in error. </p><p>Throughout the map area are crater clusters and chains that are satellitic to both craters and basins, but the host crater may not be identifiable everywhere. This material is interpreted to be from secondary impact craters of a wide variety of ages. Many mercurian secondaries are well preserved and have sharp, unrounded rims. This morphology is probably a consequence of the stronger mercurian gravity, relative to the Moon, that produces higher impact velocities for crater ejecta on the mercurian surface (Scott, 1977).<sup id="cite_ref-Gault1975_8-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Gault1975-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Structure">Structure</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Michelangelo_quadrangle&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Structure"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The rings associated with the four ancient basins are the oldest structures within the mapped area and have to some degree controlled the structural trends of subsequent <a href="/wiki/Tectonism" class="mw-redirect" title="Tectonism">tectonism</a>.

These lobate ridges appear to be of compressive tectonic origin and, although global in distribution, may be deflected locally by the presence of preexisting, basin-related structure. Additional effects of these ancient basin rings may be seen where the rim of Dostoevskij intersects the Barma-Vincente rings (for example, the <a href="/wiki/Horst_(geology)" title="Horst (geology)">horst</a> at –40°, 174°); parts of the Dostoevskij rim appear to have been structurally accented by this intersection. These relations are similar to those associated with highly degraded, ancient basins on Mars (Chicarro and others, 1983). The smooth plains material displays numerous ridges that generally resemble lunar mare ridges and also are considered to be of tectonic origin. The mercurian ridges are probably related to minor compressive stresses that postdate smooth plains emplacement. Numerous lineaments are associated with basin rim material, but most of these lineaments are probably related to ejecta deposition. A few may be faults, particularly where they occur close to preexisting basin rings. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Geologic_history">Geologic history</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Michelangelo_quadrangle&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Geologic history"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The interpretable geologic history of the Michelangelo quadrangle begins with the formation of the four ancient, multiring basins. From oldest to youngest, they are: Barma-Vincente, Bartok-Ives, Hawthorne-Riemenschneider, and Eitoku-Milton. These basins presumably formed during the period of heavy bombardment inferred from lunar history (Wilhelms, in press). Contemporaneous with their formation and shortly afterward, was the deposition of the intercrater plains material. This unit has a complex history of deposition; it was reworked in place and probably includes <a href="/wiki/Breccia" title="Breccia">brecciated</a> <a href="/wiki/Plutonic" class="mw-redirect" title="Plutonic">plutonic</a> rocks and possibly ancient volcanic flows. Deposition of the intercrater plains material was waning as the next oldest basins (Dostoevskij, Tolstoj) were formed. Partly overlapping their formation was the deposition of the intermediate plains material, probably emplaced partly as distal basin ejecta and partly as volcanic flows. Regional deformation of these plains units by compressive tectonics, forming scarps, was contemporaneous with their deposition. </p><p>The Caloris impact occurred during the time of formation of the intermediate plains material. In the map area, Caloris ejecta may be present at depth or may have been reworked locally by adjacent impacts. Two groups of Caloris secondary craters are evident. Shortly after the Caloris impact, extensive smooth plains material, probably of volcanic origin, was deposited. During this period of deposition occurred the impacts of the last of the major basins (Beethoven, Michelangelo, Valmiki, and Bach). Minor tectonic activity continued as scarps and lunar mare-type <a href="/wiki/Wrinkle_ridge" title="Wrinkle ridge">wrinkle ridges</a> developed within the smooth plains materials. </p><p>The cratering rate declined rapidly as the c3, c4 and c5 craters were produced. <a href="/wiki/Regolith" title="Regolith">Regolith</a> production continues to the present day on all units. If the geologic history of the Moon is a guide, most of the events discussed were essentially complete within the first 1.5 to 2.0 billion years of Mercury's history (Murray and others, 1975).
