abstract = "The study area is located in the north-central part of the State
of Roraima, Brazilian Amazon. The region has a tropical climate
with precipition varying from 1,750 to 2,000 mm. The Serra
Tepequem, comprised by Middle proterozoic sedimentary rocks,
constitutes an isolated plateau bounded by abrupt sloping erosion
scarps, standing up to 1,000 meters above the surrounding
metavolcanic country rocks. Mainly open grass fields constitute
the vegetation cover in the plateau, wheras the surrounding area
is covered by a tropical rain forest.Over the past years the
region has been severely exploited by independent miners
(garimpeiros).",
