ABSTRACT: The Kunene Complex (KC) represents a very large Mesoproterozoic igneous body, mainly composed of anorthosites and gabbroic rocks that extends from SW Angola to NW Namibia (outcropping 18,000 km2 , NE-SW trend, and ca. 350 km long and up to 50 km wide). Little is known about its structure at depth. Here, we use recently acquired aerogeophysical data to accurately determine its hidden extent and to unra...
RESUMEN: El Complejo de Cunene (CC) representa un extenso macizo ígneo mesoproterozoico compuesto por rocas anortosíticas, gabroicas y ácidas contemporáneas, que aflora 18.000 km2 en dirección NNE-SSW desde el SW de Angola al NW de Namibia. Se han interpretado y modelizado en 2,5/3D los datos aerogeofísicos obtenidos en el proyecto PLANAGEO para investigar los límites no expuestos del CC, reconstruyendo la estr...

RESUMEN: La cartografía geológica fue la actividad central en la que se basó el Plan Nacional de Geología de Angola (PLANAGEO). Los trabajos de cartografía geológica realizados por el consorcio UTE PLANAGEO (IGME/LNEG/IIA) en el sur de Angola (476.512 km2), desarrollados entre 2016 y 2020, comprendieron 44 cartas a escala 1:250.000, 15 cartas a escala 100.000, 8 mapas de síntesis a escala 1:500.000 y 4 mapas ge...
ABSTRACT: IGEO (Geological Institute of Angola) has developed the sosubprograms was focused on the remote sensing survey of the country. The main objective of the study is the use of satellite Earth Observation data in order to support preliminary geological and regolith mapping. This allows us to obtain a first approximation to cartography 1:250.000. Litho-structural and regolith maps are elaborated over eight...
ABSTRACT: The distribution of the high concentrations of arsenic (As) and fluoride (F-) in groundwater on a Pan-European scale could be explained by the geological European context (lithology and structural faults). To test this hypothesis, seventeen countries and eighteen geological survey organizations (GSOs) have participated in the dataset. The methodology has used the HydroGeoToxicity (HGT) and the Baselin...
