	<br>The Central African Shear Zone (CASZ) (or Shear System) is a wrench fault system extending in an ENE ~~direction~~ from the Gulf of Guinea ~~through~~ Cameroon into Sudan. The structure ~~is not~~ well understood. The shear zone dates to at the ~~very~~ least 640 Ma (million years in the past). Motion occurred alongside the zone ~~during~~ the break-up of Gondwanaland within the Jurassic and Cretaceous ~~durations~~. ~~Some~~ of the faults ~~within~~ the zone ~~have~~ been rejuvenated ~~greater~~ than ~~as soon as before~~ and ~~in the course of~~ the opening of the South Atlantic in the Cretaceous period. It has been proposed that the Pernambuco fault in Brazil is a continuation of the shear zone to the west. In Cameroon, the CASZ cuts ~~throughout~~ the Adamawa uplift, a post-Cretaeous formation. The Benue Trough lies to the north, and the Foumban Shear Zone to the south.
