The Kibara belt is an intracontinental mobile belt formed between 1400 and 900 Ma within a craton of Lower Proterozoic age. The belt's evolution started by early rifting at about 1400 …
In previous literature, the “Kibara belt” has often been portrayed as a Mesoproterozoic belt trending NE over 1300km across the Central African Congo craton, from the Angola-Zambia …
This study presents a general model for the evaluation of Rayleigh fractional crystallisation as the principal differentiation mechanism in the formation of regionally zoned common and …

Abstract The Mesoproterozoic Kibara belt in Central Africa has recently been redefined and subdivided into the Karagwe–Ankole belt (KAB) and the Kibara belt (KIB), separated by …
Field geology, petrography and texturally controlled compositional studies were carried out on cassiterite from the Karagwe Ankole Belt (KAB) in Rwanda, to understand the tin (Sn) ore …
Mineral resources take a leading economic role in Rwanda where geological structures play a key role in the exploration of mineral deposits. In this study, we used the newly developed …
