| Abstract
|
:
|
This is the first synthesis on the West African Craton (sensu largo) presenting the Precambrian to Late Paleozoic evolution in light of its origin as a part of Gondwanaland. Furthermore, correlations with such Circum-Atlantic orogens as Iberian, Appalachian, Brazilian are eluci- dated. The belts surrounding the late Archean - early Proterozoic West African Craton are described according to their stratigraphy, sedimentology, deformation, metamorphism, magmatism, and recent geochronological data.
