书目名称 | Geology and Resource Potential of the Congo Basin | 编辑 | Maarten J. de Wit,François Guillocheau,Michiel C. | 视频video | | 概述 | Unique book as there is NO other synthesis of geology and resources of this region.Area under scrutiny by many exploration companies and academic institutions; new and unpublished data made available | 丛书名称 | Regional Geology Reviews | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | .This book summarizes the geomorphology, geology, geochronology, geophysics and mineral resources of the Congo Basin, one of the world’s most enigmatic and poorly understood major intra-continental sedimentary basins, and its flanking areas of Central Africa. It provides an up to date analysis of the large region’s origin and evolution. The book’s nineteen chapters take the reader through the entire basement history, as well as the Basin’s ca. 700 million years of cover sequences. Starting from its Archean cratons and Proterozoic mobile belts, and proceeding through the Phanerozoic sequences, including the most recent Cenozoic successions, the book also explores the present drainage systems and the subtle but complex topography of the Congo Basin. It also presents and evaluates new basin models and related dynamic processes, as well as revised correlation schemes with its Gondwana counterparts in South America, all of which provide key insights into its rich diamond deposits and other mineral wealth, which are documented in the final chapters. .A specific feature of this book is its synthesis, performed by teams of active experts, of a vast amount of geoscientific data previously o | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | 关键词 | African Geology; Congo Basin; Congo River Basin; Economic Geology Congo; Intra-Continental Basins; Minera | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-29482-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-662-50951-7 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-29482-2Series ISSN 2364-6438 Series E-ISSN 2364-6446 | issn_series | 2364-6438 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2015 |
