Mantle gases detected: High helium isotope ratios in Kafue Rift hot springs show a direct mantle connection, confirming active rifting. Potential continental split: If development continues, the rift ...
Earth’s mantle appears to be leaking a little along Central Africa. If this continues to develop, this rift could grow into a new tectonic plate boundary—splitting the African continent in half. In a ...
Deep beneath the Central African Plateau, something vast is stirring. In Zambia's remote Kafue Rift, hot springs are ...
A groundbreaking study reveals that Africa may be undergoing a monumental geological transformation, as researchers identify a potential new tectonic plate boundary forming in Zambia. By looking at ...
• Due to a lack of data, the studies available so far underestimated the seismic and tsunami risk of these large faults. A new study led by the Institut de Ciències del Mar (ICM-CSIC) in Barcelona and ...
