Figure 57: White and Blue Nile drainage networks with detailed map of area between Esh Shawal and Khartoum. Numbers in parentheses = modern Sr isotope ratios; solid triangles = fossil localities (Talbot et al. 2000: 343). literature for this region because of researchers’ interest in the unique geology of the Kenya and Ethiopian rift valleys. Rogers et al. (2000) investigated the geology of the Kenya rift system which has a basement composed of three zones: the Archaean Tanzanian craton (TC), the late Proterozoic Pan-african Mozambique mobile belt (MB) and a zone of craton margin reactivated (remobalized) during the Pan-african orogeny (RCM) (see Figure 59 for map of these zones). These basalts located along the axial regions of the Kenya Rift have Sr ratios of 0.7030 to 0.7055. Specifically, the TC and RCM have values ranging from 0.7035-0.7056 (or >0.7035), and the MB yields ratios from 0.7030-0.7035 (or
Figure 58: Schematic diagram along Upper Nile-White Nile from headwater lakes to Khartoum, summarizing Sr isotope composition of main components of drainage system. Water analyses are open stars, numbers are sample ages in 14C ka BP, long arrows are main water courses. End member values are for two principal types of catchment geology: Precambrian-lower Paleozoic crystalline basement and Cenozoic-Holocene volcanic rocks (Talbot et al. 2000: 344, figure 2). 146
