The Limpopo Belt is located in South Africa, runs E-NE, and separates the Rhodesian and Transvaal massifs. The Limpopo Belt joins the Kaapvaal craton to the south with the Zimbabwe craton to the north. The belt is of high-grade metamorphic rocks that have undergone a long cycle of metamorphism and deformation that ended 2.0 billion years ago, after the stabilisation of the adjacent massifs.
