journal contribution
posted on 2023-05-17, 08:47 authored by Rabinowitz, PD, Mike CoffinMike Coffin, Falvey, DAThe presence of newly discovered diapirs of presumed salt origin is documented for the continental margin of northeastern Kenya and southeastern Somalia. These structures are probably a manifestation of a significant thickness of Lower Jurassic evaporites deposited during the rift and early-drift stages of the separation of Madagascar from the African continent.
