Abstract:

Highlights in the geological research of central East Africa. The present paper offers a general view of the geological history of central East Africa. It is meant to inform persons involved in all kinds of African research about the physical background of this enormous continent. As the text is intended for people with no specific training in the earth sciences, an extensive introductory part has been dedicated to the general principles and methods of historical geology. The principle of superposition and the meaning of a major unconformity are shortly explained. Also the significance of foss

Abstract:

AbstractWe present a statistical approach to data mining and quantitatively evaluating detrital age spectra for sedimentary provenance analyses and palaeogeographic reconstructions. Multidimensional scaling coupled with density-based clustering allows the objective identification of provenance end-member populations and sedimentary mixing processes for a composite crust. We compiled 58 601 detrital zircon U–Pb ages from 770 Precambrian to Lower Palaeozoic shelf sedimentary rocks from 160 publications and applied statistical provenance analysis for the Peri-Gondwanan crust north of Africa and t

Abstract:

Until recently, East Africa, with its complex geology and seemingly limited prospects, was the poor relation of the hydrocarbon provinces of West Africa. Since 2010, however, a string of successful exploration has resulted in offshore Kenya, Tanzania, and Mozambique, culminating in significant mergers and acquisitions and farming activities. Peter Coleman of Woodside described it as a potential game changer and a significant threat to the Australian LNG market. This extended abstract provides an overview of the basins and the discoveries, concentrating on the two most promising countries: Moza

Abstract:

AbstractThe Gondwana–Laurussia convergence process can be explored by studying the Middle Mississippian (Viséan) palynoflora of northwest Africa. Statistical analysis of the Viséan miospore assemblages reported from Morocco defines two populations, one with clear Laurussian affinity from the northern margin of the Western Meseta, and the other, more Gondwanan in composition, from the southern part of the Western Meseta and Anti-Atlas. Moreover, no transitional assemblages have been described from the region. These palynofloral variations are a consequence of the complex palaeogeography of the

Abstract:

The presence of ophiolite complexes in NE and E Africa has been documented using Landsat, field and geochemical studies. This has led to the recognition of five ophiolite belts. These ophiolite belts represent sutures marking the position of island arcs and could be traced to Saudi Arabia on a pre-Red Sea drift reconstruction. Most of the ophiolites are dismembered, their mode of occurrence varies widely resulting in different structural relationships. The Yubdo complex in Western Ethiopia is formed of harzburgite which grades into dunites and pyroxenitic units, a cumulate sequence of ultramaf

Abstract:

The East African coastal basin of Tanzania, which is characterised by an extensional tectonic style, is located along the passive continental margin of the western Indian Ocean. The present study is concerned with the Mafia Island and the Mafia Channel which together form a subbasin within the north-south elongated coastal sedimentary basin of Tanzania. In the time interval from late Paleozoic to Recent, the passive margin of the region was subjected to a three-fold geological development, namely the Karoo rifting phase (1) which is characterised by extensional tectonics, the Gondwana break-up

Abstract:

Tectonics plays an important role in the genesis and subsequent mlnlng development of the Kwaggashoek East ore body. Lithological key units control the effectiveness of the ore forming processes, affecting the in situ ore reserve, The Kwaggashoek East deposit is the product of primary and secondary processes. A genetic model focussed on the source, migration and deposition of iron suggests a possible original source of iron as the product of very dilute hydrothermal input into deep ocean waters, with subsequent migration through structural conduits. Supergene processes account for the upgradin

The composition of volcanic products can provide critical information about the source and the conditions of melting. This information is used to highlight differences in melting environments from volcanic regions around the globe. Volcanic lavas and other products from the Rungwe Volcanic Province, in southwest Tanzania (9.13S,33.67E), were collected and studied to test a number of lingering questions about the role of magmatism in a continental rift tectonic environment. The Rungwe Volcanic Province is the only region in this portion of the East African Rift (EAR) system with apparent magmat

ABSTRACT We have reprocessed, re-imaged, and interpreted 10000+ km of legacy 2D seismic data in the Seychelles, particularly in the western part of the Plateau. Seychelles data have been difficult to image, particularly for the Mesozoic section: volcanics are a major attenuator of low frequency signal, and a hard water bottom contributes to signal problems. Enhanced low frequency techniques were applied to improve the signal fidelity in the 4 to 20 Hz range, and to remove spectral notches of shallow geologic origin. These efforts have allowed a reasonable view of the structure of the Plateau t

These unconventionals do often occur onshore in places, where there is no conventional hydrocarbon production, thus enabling the local government or companies to have a new energy source, which is especially valid in Onshor
