Bacino dell'Angola

Il bacino dell'Angola o bacino angolano è situato lungo il margine dell'Atlantico meridionale al largo della costa dell'Africa occidentale e si estende dal Camerun all'Angola.[1]

Caratteristiche

Il bacino angolano è caratterizzato come un margine passivo che ha iniziato ad espandersi a sud per continuare in seguito verso l'alto attraverso tutto il bacino.[2]

Il bacino si formò in seguito alla frammentazione iniziale del supercontinente Pangea, nel corso del Cretacico inferiore, crando l'Oceano Atlantico e i bacini dell'Angola, del Capo e dell'Argentina.[3]

Viene spesso suddiviso in due sezioni: il bacino del basso Congo, che si trova nella regione settentrionale e il bacino di Kwanza che si trova nella parte meridionale del margine dell'Angola.[4]

Il bacino dell'Angola è conosciuto per i suoi bacini salati dell'Aptiano, uno spesso strato di evaporite che ha influenzato la topografia del bacino fin dal tempo della sua deposizione e agisce da importante riserva di petrolio.[5]
