摘要: A reconstruction of the tectonic history part Benue Trough is made from a study marine transgressions and regressions in SE Nigeria. Two periods deformation involving essentially interaction continental plates are suggested. The oceanic crust produced by crustal attenuation rift very minimal. Unstable conditions may have created for development an evaporite sequence.
