Abstract

The main objective of this work is to study the geology of Amuro and its environs near Afikpo, Ebonyi state and produce a geologic map of the study area. Amuro area offers a unique opportunity to study and understand the deformational processes and to determine the tectonic stresses active in the southern Benue Trough as the highly indurated nature of the sediments allow for an abundance of outcrops that is unmatched anywhere else in the region. Its coordinate is N005057 and E007052 with elevation of 31 metres. The work was done in the field making observations, taking measurements using the GPS, Compass, hammer and other field equipments, and as well taking down recordings of data gotten from the field. Laboratory analysis were also carried out on the samples from the field, Grain size, Petrographic and Biostratigraphic analysis were done on the samples. The results from this analysis helped us to determine the age of the sample in order to compare with the determined regional age of the area by earlier workers.
