Abstract

Two main types of passive margins known as volcanic and non-volcanic rifted margins, based on the extent of volcanic activity associated with their formation, are widely recognised. Volcanic rifted margins have now been identified along the edges of many continents (Coffin & Eldholm, 1992) and cannot any longer be considered as rare exceptions to 'normal' (non-volcanic) continental break-up.
