This basin, about 1300 km in diameter, is surrounded by a discontinuous annulus of ejecta deposits of the Caloris Group (units cm, cn, co, cvl, and cvs) that are embayed and covered by broad expanses of smooth plains (unit ps). The southeast half of the quadrangle is dominated by ancient crater deposits (units cl , c2 , and c3 ), by nondescript rolling to hummocky plains materials (unit pi) between individual craters, and by isolated patches of nondescript plains (units pi-ps). Purpose: Supplemental_Information: The ancient and degraded Tolstoj multiring basin, about 350 km in diameter, is in the south-central part of the quadrangle The large, well-preserved crater Mozart (285 km diameter) is a prominent feature in the western part of the area; its extensive ejecta blanket and secondary crater field are superposed on the smooth plains (unit ps) surrounding Caloris.
