Former Continent Discovered

Did you see the news this week that scientists have identified a former continent under Mauritius island, which is in the Indian Ocean to the east of Madagascar?

Remember that, in my geological theory of "The Continental Asteroids And Lines Of Emergence Hypothesis", the first of two Continental Asteroids landed and was centered in what is now the undersea ridge structure, known as the Mascarene Ridge. Islands like Mauritius, Reunion and, the Seychelles are where the ridge pokes above the surface of the water.

The continent formed by this First Continental Asteroid has long since been split apart by lines of emergence that formed beneath it. Those lines formed the ridges of the Mascarene Ridge. The central portion of the Second Continental Asteroid is still at it's impact site, it is the continent of Antarctica.

There are two separate reviews of this geology theory on this blog, "Summary Of Geological Theory Of Continental Asteroids" and "The Continental Asteroids And The Lines Of Emergence Hypothesis Made Really Simple".

The posting on this blog, "The First Antarctica And The First Original Impact Line", details where the fragments of this First Continental Asteroid can be seen now.
