4 GEOLOGY AND MINERALISATION<br />

4.1 Regional Economic Geology<br />

Almost two thirds of <strong>Mozambique</strong> is covered by Precambrian rocks (Archaean to<br />

Neoproterozoic) which occur mostly in the north and northwest of the country.<br />

Phanerozoic terrains comprise the remaining one third of the rocks and generally occur<br />

south of the Zambezi valley and along the coastal belt in the northeast (Figure 4-1).<br />
