Igue Oke is located in the SW of Igarra Auchi sheet 266 SW, southwest basement complex of Nigeria. The rock types are made up of meta-sediments which includes marbles, migmatitic schists, meta-conglomerates, amphibolites, calc-silicate rocks which have undergone several deformati...
The small-scale structural features identified in the field are original sedimentary structures. They were formed as direct results of sedimentation processes and are clearly preserved. The size, shape, and sorting of sedimentary structures within rocks may provide clues to the d...
