4 GEOTECTONIC UNITS:
- Congo Craton (5 blocks)
- Block NE (Lunda)
- Block NW (Congo)
- Block Center-W
- Block Center-E (Cassinga)
- Block SW (Namibe)
- Mobile Belts
- Eburnean Cycle
- Pan-African/Brasilian cycle
- Sedimentary
Continental Basins
- Karoo
- Kalahari
- Perioceanic Basins
- Congo
- Kuanza
- Namibe
Main guidelines for geological surveying
of ancient terrains – a) CONGO CRATON
The 5 cratonic Blocs were amalgamated during
the Eburnean cycle (2 Gy) to form the
CONGO CRATON.
b) MOBILE OROGENIC BELTS
The history behind the Eburnenan cycle has to
be sought - isotope studies, tectonics and
petrology of the ancient tectono-thermic
complexes:
- Charnoquits of Dybaia (Lunda) – 2,82 Gy
- Quilombo granites and granitoids – 2,6 Gy
- Moxico and Lunda-S gneisses and migmatites – 2,8 Gy
- Idem of Cariango, Andulo and SW – 2,5 GY
Magmatic Arch
Distribution
of Karoo
Basins
THE PERIOCEANIC BASINS
These OCEANIC BASINS were formed during the opening of the
South Atlantic:
- Congo
- Kwanza
- Namibe
Kalahari
