Descrição

This study aims to understand the relationship between the geological and morphological characteristics of the inselbergs located in the Ribáuè-Malema sector of Nampula (Mozambique). The detailed characterization of this particular type of landscape will contribute to develop further studies focused in geoheritage and environmental conservation topics. The study area comprises part of the Malema, Ribáué and Lalaua districts. The studied inselbergs were characterized according to their lithological and morphological attributes, using the information provided by the geological maps and by digital terrain models made in ArcGIS 10.8.2. In the classified resistant landforms, the predominant lithologies are granites, gneisses and migmatites.
