Did the Benue Trough connect the Gulf of Guinea with the Tethys Ocean in the Cenomanian? New evidence from the palynostratigraphy of the Yola Sub-basin

Musa B. Usman et al.

Summary: This study combines field observations and palynostratigraphy to refine the stratigraphy of Upper Cretaceous deposits in the Yola Sub-basin, revealing the presence of five palynozones and indicating intercontinental water body mixing during the Cenomanian stage.

Provenance, palaeoweathering and depositional environment of the cretaceous deposits from the Babouri-Figuil and Mayo Oulo-Lere basins (North-Cameroon) during the Southern Atlantic opening: Geochemical constraints

Milan Stafford Tchouatcha et al.

Summary: The Babouri-Figuil and Mayo Oulo-Lere basins are intra-continental basins linked to the opening of the Southern Atlantic Ocean. Sediments from these basins consist of Fe-shales and Fe-sands derived from intermediate to felsic rocks with subordinate mafic rocks. The geochemical analysis suggests a lacustrine or swampy environment with cool to semi-arid climate during deposition, and a tectonic setting related to arc-collisional processes from Pan-African basement rocks.
