Abstract
A new Bouguer gravity anomaly map compiled for western Africa adds data for Ghana, Guinea, and Liberia. The new data add detail to a key part of the Eburnean shield and assist in the development of a model of rifting at the time of the Eburnean orogeny, 2000 million years ago. This model includes a framework for the deposition of the region’s mineral deposits. The model and existing field data can be used to guide future minerals exploration in the region.Keywords
