Abstract: The Bongor Basin is located in southwestern Chad, on the north side of the middle section of CASZ. It is a Meso-Cenozoic intracontinental rift basin developed on Precambrian–basement and affected by the strike-slip of CASZ. It is WNW-trending, about 300 km long, 40–80 km wide, and covers an area of approximately 1.8 × 104 km2. The basin has many similarities with other basins in CARS, such as basement age, regional structure, Lower Cretaceous strata, sedimentary characteristics, etc. It also has unique features.
