This book presents the latest advances in mapping the geological structures and modeling the geodynamical and petrological processes in the Hoggar shield and adjacent areas of the northeast West African Craton, which is home to the oldest rocks in Algeria. Its respective chapters discuss the structural geology, geophysical methods, igneous processes, metamorphic petrology and metallogeny.

The mapping and modeling are based on satellite data and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), so the mapping ranges from continental to crystalline scale and the ages range from 3.2 Ga to the recent Cenozoic. Further, various types of commercial and open source software (partially developed by the authors) were used.

Gathering papers by respected experts in the methods applied and the Algerian Precambrian domain, the book offers a valuable reference guide to a range of mapping and modeling methodologies, as well as a geological and geophysical description of the Hoggar shield and the northeast West African Craton.
