The Elogo complex is a greenstone belt portion located on the Eastern edge of the Archean Congo craton at the junction with the Paleoproterozoic to Neoproterozoic Sembe Ouesso basin. This study was carried out on this...
This study focuses on the metabasite rocks of the Nemba Complex of the Mayombe belt, an African segment of Araçuaï-West Congo Orogen (A-WCO) extending from the southwest of Gabon to the northwest of Angola. ...
The Gabon geology offered favorable and natural environments for the formation of various types of mineralization. The Etéké gold district, aim of this study, is located in the Ngounié province (southern Gabon) on ...

The Nyasirori gold deposit,located in the middle-western end of the Musoma-Mara Archean greenstone belt in Tanzania,is a tectonic altered rock type gold deposit controlled by shear tectonic zone.This work conducted hi...
The granite-greenstone terranes nested in Archean cratonic nuclei of continents over the world are composed of variably metamorphosed igneous and sedimentary remnants of ancient ocean basins.These rocks preserve disti...
