摘要

In the Lower Congo region, the Ediacaran Schisto-Calcaire Subgroup consists of five carbonate-dominated formations (Cl to C5). They record tectono-eustatic sea-level fluctuations controlled by several short-time extensional tectonic events occurred in the whole basin, followed by the development of the Aracuai-West Congo Orogen between 630 Ma and 560 Ma. The uppermost units of the C2 Formation, i.e. C2d and C2e members, consist of open marine to peritidal/sabkha cycles of 1-4 m in thickness formed during in a Highstand Systems Tract (HST). The unexposed transition between the C2 and C3 formations is interpreted as a 'final' HSTphase which initiated the burial of the carbonate ramp by prograding siliciclastics or an early Transgressive Systems Tract (TST) phase. The carbonates of the C3 Formation represent open marine shallowing-upward cycles of 3-8 m in thickness, with deposition at the top of massive oolitic barrier shoals during a TST which flooded the entire the Neoproterozoic West Congo Basin. During the highstand, contributions of river water and land-derived material inputs occured, intermittently according to the semi-arid to arid conditions that prevailed in the restricted inner ramp and in the sabkha facies belts.
