The Geology of Egypt
The Geology of Egypt[electronic resource] /edited by Zakaria Hamimi, Ahmed El-Barkooky, Jesús Martínez Frías, Harald Fritz, Yasser Abd El-Rahman. - 1st ed. 2020. - XXVI, 711 p. 382 illus., 352 illus. in color.online resource. - Regional Geology Reviews,2364-6438. - Regional Geology Reviews,.

History of the Geological Research in Egypt -- Precambrian Geology of Egypt -- Structural and tectonic framework of Neoproterozoic basement of Egypt: from gneiss domes to transpression belts -- Crustal Evolution of the Precambrian rocks of Egypt -- The Precambrian metamorphic belts of Egypt -- Tectonics and Structural Evolution of Egypt -- Red Sea Tectonics -- Paleozoic Geology of Egypt -- Mesozoic Geology of Egypt -- Paleogene Geology of Egypt -- Neogene Geology of Egypt -- Quaternary Geology of Egypt -- Egyptian Vertebrate Paleontology -- Egyptian Impact Crater(s) and Meteorites -- Mineral Resources in Egypt (I): Metallic Ore Depoists -- Mineral Resources in Egypt (II): Non-Metallic Ore Depoists -- Hydrocarbon Resources in Egypt -- Water Resources in Egypt -- Seismicity, Seismotectonics and Neotectonics.

This richly illustrated book offers a concise overview of the geology of Egypt in the context of the geology of the Arab Region and Northeast Africa. An introductory chapter on history of geological research in Egypt sheds much light on the stages before and after the establishment of Egyptian Geological Survey (the second oldest geological survey worldwide), Hume's book and Said's 1962, 1990 books. The book starts with the Precambrian geology of Egypt, in terms of lithostratigraphy and classifications, structural and tectonic framework, crustal evolution and metamorphic belts. A dedicated chapter discusses the Paleozoic-Mesozoic-Cenozoic tectonics and structural evolution of Egypt. A chapter highlights the Red Sea tectonics and the Gulf of Suez and Gulf of Aqaba Rifts. Subsequent chapters address the Phanerozoic geology from Paleozoic to Quaternary. The Egyptian Impact Crater(s) and Meteorites are dealt with in a separate chapter. The Earth resources in Egypt, including metallic and non-metallic ore deposits, hydrocarbon and water resources, are given much more attention throughout four chapters. The last chapter addresses the seismicity, seismotectonics and neotectonics of Egypt.
