Stratigraphic Lexicon: The Sedimentary Formations of The Republic of Niger, Africa. By Jacques LeBlanc (2022), Colnes Publishing (Tallin, Estonia), 365 pp.

The current knowledge of the stratigraphy of Niger benefitted greatly from the mining, hydrocarbon, hydrogeological, and paleontological sciences. Exploration by early explorers and studies of the aquifers initially sparked our understanding of the surface and shallow formations.
By 2010, these same hydrocarbon companies finally allowed some geologists to share their knowledge of the sub-surface in relevant publications. It is from all these studies that the present Lexicon draws its content. It provides the historical background of all described geological units in Niger and summarizes each unit's lithological and paleontological knowledge in an easy-to-search format.
