Unprecedented growth in demand for the commodities needed for low-carbon-energy technologies requires innovative solutions for mineral production and refinement from unconventional deposits. An enhanced understanding of the materials present in such deposits is needed, not only for projecting material characteristics into all downstream processes,...
The Nampula Block covers over 100,000 km2, making it the largest Mesoproterozoic crustal segment in northern Mozambique and an important component of the Neoproterozoic to Cambrian (Pan-African) East African Orogen. It is bounded in the north by the WSW–ENE trending Lúrio Belt. The oldest rocks (Mocuba Suite) are a polydeformed sequence of upper am...
Describes the geology of sheets FURANCUNGO (1433) and ULONGUE (1434) in NW Mozambique.
Introduction: Granulite-facies metamorphic rocks of diverse compositions occur as several discrete klippen overlying lower-grade amphibo-lite-facies rocks in the Moçambique belt in north central Moçambique. This study presents the results of PT estimates performed by a variety of means on two granulite samples from the Mugeba klippe, which is the m...
The rare element pegmatites of the Alto Ligonha Pegmatite Province of northern Mozambique are famous for their gemstones, rare and unique mineral specimens and as a source for a variety of rare element minerals such as beryllium, tantalum and niobium. The first reports of pegmatite mining around Alto Ligonha date back to around 1926 and is reported...
A considerable amount of the recent of the geological maps (1980-1985) coverage in northern Mozambique is based on remote sensing and aerial photo interpretations, with limited field control, and the maps are therefore inaccurate, outdated and mostly lack continuity of the geological formations from one map to another. To overcome these problems th...
