The isle consists of a 700 m thick pile of basalt lava flows and scarce pyroclastics crossed by several families of dikes. The structure of the island could correspond to the remaining fragment of a primitive large shield volcano. The main hypothetical emission centre could once be situated between the present islands of Santa Luzia and Branco}, publisher = {Sociedad Geológica de España}, title = {Geología de la isla de Branco (Cabo Verde)}, title = {Geology of Branco island (Cape Verde)}, author = {Ancochea, Eumenio and Brändle, José Luis and Hernán, Francisco and Huertas, María José}, }
