TRANSCRIPT
Ethiopian Ministry of MinesGeological Survey of Ethiopia
Geology of EthiopiaEthiopia has a complex geological history represented in three
major geological terrains. Late Palaeozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic
continental and marine sediments occur mainly in the eastern
part of Ethiopia. Also Cenozoic volcanic and sedimentary rocks
occur, including those of the East African Rift Valley transecting
the country from south to north.
The most important terrain for gold exploration and exploitation
is the Proterozoic basement constituting about 18% of the
country. The basement hosts nearly all known gold occurrences.
The entire country is covered by this 1:2 000 000 scale geological
map, which was first published in 1973 and edited in 1996, while
the compilation of 1:250 000 scale maps is still ongoing. At
present 51% of the country is covered by 1:250 000 scale maps
and full coverage is expected before 2016. These maps are
available both in hard copy print and soft copy.
Geochemical surveys on different scales have been conducted in
different parts of the country with particular emphasis on the
assessment of the mineral potential of the Precambrian rocks. To
date c. 20% of the country has been covered by 1:100 000 scale
maps and for selected areas more detailed maps have been
compiled. From 2009 systematic geochemical mapping on a scale
of 1:250 000 integrated with geological and geophysical mapping
was started and coverage of 50% is expected before 2016. Further
the compilation of a 1:2 000 000 scale geochemical map and
metallogenic map has been initiated.
A considerable part of the greenstone belts in the Proterozoic
basement has been covered by airborne geophysical surveys. The
Ethiopian Government has approved a five-year strategic plan
(2011-2015) to cover the country by low–medium resolution,
airborne geophysical surveys, to compile a 1:500 000 scale gravity
map of Ethiopia and increase the coverage of the 1:250 000 scale
gravity map to around 50% of the country.
