The Karoo and Ferrar Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) are two large igneous provinces in Southern Africa and Antarctica respectively, collectively known as the Karoo-Ferrar, Gondwana, or Southeast African LIP, associated with the initial break-up of the Gondwana supercontinent at c. 183 Ma.Its flood basalt mostly covers South Africa and Antarctica but portions extend further into southern Africa and into South America, India, Australia and New Zealand. The Ferrar LIP is notable for long distance transport and the Karoo LIP for its large volume and chemical diversity.

  • Karoo-Ferrar est le nom de deux grandes provinces ignées d'Afrique australe et de l'Antarctique, associées à la rupture initiale du supercontinent Gondwana. Ses dépôts de roches basaltiques (trapps) couvrent principalement l'Afrique du Sud et l'Antarctique, mais certaines parties s'étendent plus loin en Afrique australe et en Amérique du Sud, en Inde, en Australie et en Nouvelle-Zélande. * Portail du volcanisme * Portail de l’Afrique * Portail de l’Antarctique (fr)
  • La Karoo e la Ferrar sono due grandi province ignee rispettivamente dell'Africa australe e dell'Antartide, che considerate assieme vengono chiamate grandi province ignee del Karoo-Ferrar, Gondwana, o sudest africana, associate alla frammentazione iniziale del supercontinente Gondwana avvenuta circa 183 milioni di anni fa.Il suo flusso basaltico ricopre principalmente il Sudafrica e l'Antartide, ma alcune porzioni si estendono in altre zone dell'Africa meridionale oltre che in Sud America, India, Australia e Nuova Zelanda.

  • Die Karoo-Ferrar-Magmaprovinzen sind zwei große, weitgehend geographisch getrennte kontinentale magmatische Großprovinzen, die jedoch zeitlich und geodynamisch in engem Zusammenhang stehen. Es wird vermutet, dass die Ursache mit großvolumigen Mantelkonvektionen und/oder dem Aufsteigen eines Mantelplumes während der seinerzeit herrschenden instabilen plattentektonischen Verhältnisse und Grabenbruchbildungen zusammenhängt. Die Karoo-Magmaprovinz entstand im Süden Proto-Afrikas, während sich die Ferrar-Magmaprovinz hauptsächlich im Westen Proto-Ostantarktikas entwickelte. Die ausgetretenen Magmen bedeckten in einem Zeitraum von 204 bis 175 mya (Millionen Jahren) eine Fläche von ca. 3 Millionen Quadratkilometer. Das aufgestiegene Magmavolumen betrug geschätzt ca. 2,5 Millionen Kubikkilometer. Als Folge der großen Magmafreisetzungen traten nachhaltige Schädigungen der Ökologie auf, die mit zum großen Massenaussterben an der Trias-Jura-Grenze führten. (de)

  • The Karoo and Ferrar Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) are two large igneous provinces in Southern Africa and Antarctica respectively, collectively known as the Karoo-Ferrar, Gondwana, or Southeast African LIP, associated with the initial break-up of the Gondwana supercontinent at c. 183 Ma.Its flood basalt mostly covers South Africa and Antarctica but portions extend further into southern Africa and into South America, India, Australia and New Zealand. Karoo-Ferrar formed just prior to the breakup of Gondwana in the Lower Jurassic epoch, about 183 million years ago; this timing corresponds to the early Toarcian anoxic event and the Pliensbachian-Toarcian extinction. It covered about 3 x 106 km2. The total original volume of the flow, which extends over a distance in excess of 6000 km (4000 km in Antarctica alone), was in excess of 2.5 x 106 km³ (2.5 million cubic kilometres). The Ferrar LIP is notable for long distance transport and the Karoo LIP for its large volume and chemical diversity. The igneous activity of the Karoo LIP began c. 204 Ma at the northern margin of the province. The long-lasting Chon-Aike Province in Patagonia, the Antarctic Peninsula, and Ellsworth Land was activated c. 190 Ma in an unstable tectonic environment in which both extension and subduction occurred. Chon-Aike had a peak between 183 to 173 Ma but produced continued magmatism between 168 to 141 Ma. By 184 to 175 Ma the Karoo magmatism had spread to Namibia, Lesotho, Lebombo, and the Ferrar province in Antarctica. The Karoo LIP ended 145 Ma with peripheral eruptions in Patagonia, the Antarctica Peninsula, northern South Africa, Kerala in India, and southeast Australia. The Karoo Province uplifted southern Africa c. 1.5 km (0.93 mi) and broke East Gondwana (India, Antarctica, and Australia) away from West Gondwana (South America and Africa) beginning in the opening of the Weddell Sea. In the Cretaceous, some 15 million years after the last Karoo eruption, renewed magmatism was initiated between Mary Byrd Land in Antarctica and New Zealand from where it spread along Gondwana's southern margin, from eastern Australia to the Antarctic Peninsula. Isotopic dating suggests a series of igneous events at 133–131, 124–119, and 113–107 Ma in Australia; 110–99 Ma in Mary Byrd Land; 114-109 and 82 Ma in New Zealand; and 141 and 127 Ma in the Antarctic Peninsula. This phase of magmatism resulted in extension and rift between Australia and Antarctica, Australia and Lord Howe Rise, and Mary Byrd Land and New Zealand. (en)
