RESUMEN: El Plan Nacional de Geología de Angola (PLANAGEO) ha sido uno de los proyectos geotemáticos
internacionales más importantes de las últimas décadas. El proyecto fue lanzado por Gobierno de la
República de Angola e implementado por el Instituto Geológico de Angola (IGEO), bajo la supervisión del Ministerio de Recursos Minerales, Petróleos y Gas (MIREMPET). Los principales objetivos de PLANAGEO fueron: a) profundizar en el conocimiento de los recursos geológicos; b) fomentar la diversificación de la economía; y, c) atraer inversión extranjera para promover el desarrollo socioeconómico del país. Tras licitación internacional, el IGEO otorgó al consorcio UTE PLANAGEO, formado por el Instituto Geológico y Minero de España (IGME), el Laboratorio Nacional de Energía y Geología de Portugal (LNEG) y la empresa Impulso Industrial Alternativo (IIA) la ejecución del proyecto en la zona sur de Angola, en un área aproximada de 480.000 km2. El contrato se firmó en octubre de 2013, por un importe de 115.312.500 USD, y los trabajos cartográficos fueron realizados entre 2014 y 2022. El proyecto incluyó el levantamiento aerogeofísico regional (mag/rad) y la cartografía geológica a escala 1:250.000 de todo el país, junto con otras cartografías de detalle a escala 1:100.000, y síntesis a escalas 1:500.000 y 1:1.000.000. Fueron realizadas campañas de prospección geoquímica a escala 1:250.000, y otros estudios específicos a escala 1:50.000, que incluyeron Mapas de Recursos Minerales Metálicos (CRMMA) y Mapas de Rocas y Minerales Industriales (CARMINA) en zonas de especial interés, así como estudios hidrogeológicos en la cuenca del Kalahari.
ABSTRACT: The National Geological Plan of Angola (PLANAGEO) has been one of the most significant international geothematic projects of recent decades. The project was launched by the Government of the Republic of Angola and implemented by the Geological Survey of Angola (IGEO), under the supervision of the Angolan Ministry of Mineral Resources, Petroleum and Gas (MIREMPET). The main objectives of PLANAGEO were to deepen the knowledge of geological resources, foster the diversification of the economy, and attract foreign investment to promote the socio-economic development of the country. The UTE PLANAGEO consortium, consisting of the Geological Survey of Spain (IGME), the National Laboratory of Energy and Geology of Portugal (LNEG), and the company Impulso Industrial Alternativo (IIA), was awarded to execute the project in southern Angola, covering an area of ca. 480,000 km2. The contract, worth USD 115,312,500, was signed in October 2013 following an international call for tenders by IGEO. The work was carried out between July 2014 and the end of 2022. The project involved a regional aerogeophysical survey (mag/rad) and geological mapping at a scale of 1:250,000, along with other detailed mapping at a scale of 1:100,000 and synthesis maps at scales of 1:500,000 and 1:1,000,000. Geochemical campaigns were conducted at a scale of 1:250,000, and other specific studies were made at a scale of 1:50,000, including Metallic Minerals Maps (CRMMA) and Rock and Industrial Minerals Maps (CARMINA) in areas of special interest, as well as hydrogeological studies in the Kalahari basin.
