- •
South America’s clockwise rotation controlled rifting, LIP, carbonates, and salt.
- •
Rotation opened the rift, compressed the Solimões Basin, and dislocated West Africa.
- •
Rotation controlled three long dike swarms transversal to the rift.
- •
Igneous activity created the endorheic basin and lasted until salt deposition.
- •
Supergiant oil fields occur where flood basalts and non-marine carbonates overlap.
