Abstract
Continental rifting and the Early Cretaceous opening of the South Atlantic formed<br>the passive, volcanic margin off Namibia. Just prior to the onset of sea floor<br>spreading a Large Igneous Province emplaced including voluminous extrusives,<br>continental flood basalts and subvolcanic ring complexes. Multichannel seismic<br>reflection and wide-angle data were collected to explore the deep structure of the<br>entire continent-ocean transition. This contribution presents preliminary results<br>from P-velocity modelling and inversion.
