The evaluation of the age status of Venusian coronae is based on detailed mapping of small areas of the surface that include coronae using Magellan imagery. The mapping allowed to construct local stratigraphic columns for areas including both coronae and regional geological units that are part of the accepted stratigraphic guidelines. The result made it possible to demonstrate that the population of coronae was formed throughout the geologic history of the Venusian plains. The age position of the coronae indicates that planetary activity continued after the period of the most intensive tessera-forming deformations for at least another 20 to 30 percent of the observed history on an area of about 10 percent of the Venusian surface.
