AFR CGMW-BRGM 1:10M Continental Ocean Boundary

This 1:10M-scale geological map of Africa was prepared at the French Geological Survey (BRGM) for the 35th International Geological Congress (2016) using the main documents as follows: “Geology and major ore deposits of Africa at 1:10 M scale” (2004); “Geological map of Africa at 1:5 M scale” (1985-1990); “Tectonic map of Africa at 1:10M scale” (2010); the most recent national geological maps when available; regional syntheses (e.g. Tuareg shield, East African Rift). Note: The outer boundary of the continental margin is still largely imprecise or conjectural and has no legal force in the framework of the United Nations Convention of the law of the seas (UNCLOS).

Printed map is available at CGMW (www.cgmw.org) and BRGM (www.brgm.fr).
