“…Further, he concluded that the granitic masses induced metamorphic changes in sedimentary rocks, with the granites themselves being deformed into gneiss [3] and [4]. Different varieties of gneisses from south Sinai are of Archean age and had been subjected to high degrees of metamorphism [5].…”

“…The southern part of the latter is occupied by the Gulf of Elat (Aqaba). A thick marine Neogene series developed in the Suez Rift attests to its already advanced development in Miocene, and probably in older, times (Hume, 1906;Said, 1962;Robson, 1971). Marine Miocene rocks are also known from the southern tip of the Gulf of Elat (Hume, 1906;Omara, 1959;Bramkamp et ah, 1963;Goldberg, (unpub.…”

Raham Conglomerate – new evidence for Neogene tectonism in the southern part of the Dead Sea Rift

et al. 1974

SummaryA newly discovered, mainly continental, deformed, Neogene formation – the Raham Conglomerate – records the early existence of the southern part of the Dead Sea Rift. The field relations, the predominance of clasts derived from formations which have been virtually completely eroded, and the presence of pebbles of Precambrian rocks, all attest that a considerable structural relief – possibly exceeding 2 km – already existed in the Middle (?) Miocene. Brackish marine fossils indicate that an ancestral Gulf of Elat (Aqaba) also already existed.
