A New Lost Continent Zealandia Founds

Have you know about the Zealandia . A new hidden lost continent discovered by a team of 32 scientists from 12 countries with the study of nine week near South Pacific near somewhere Australia .

A hidden continent Zealandia discovered in past all read the whole world made up of 7 continents now after the discovery of a new continent in the future you will see 8 continents on the world map, your text book and government survey everywhere map all thing will change dramatically. Continents who survived 80 million years back. Many scientists thinking hidden continents are one of the parts of India that were obstructed a million years ago .

In million year ago Zealandia was a big part of current one of 7 continent India . Million years back ago earth surface divided into two crust first is continental and the other was oceanic and into 14 major tectonic plates. With the diffusion of crust the one big part of the Asia continent to understand and investigate earth history many scientists are regular research about the processes going over the period and evolution of the earth .

Zealandia also is known as the New Zealand continent due to its very near to New Zealand. That sinks and away from Australia 60-85 million years ago. The name and concept for Zealandia were proposed by Bruce Luyendyk in 1995.

Lost Continent Zealandia Found

Already you may be known about the Dinosaurs and Many Other Creatures extinct and died out of 66 million years ago that time many big continents there not broke into smaller continents. Everything going according to going time many unexpected real things goes hidden or lost in the world .

After many years of research about geological era many scientists finding the facts that part of huge land or a continent loss during earth crust dividing into the much smaller part .

Zealandia one of them who lost from the world and hidden from all now revealed by a team of 32 scientists comes from 12 countries after study of south pacific and water surrounding near new Zealand scientist discovered a hidden continent that is lost and sunken on seawater .

It is the world’s largest micro-continent, more than twice the size of the next largest micro-continent and more than half of the Australian Continent. All this happen due to change in tectonic plates of earth and global climate changes .

Zealandia nearby southwest pacific ocean is made up of continental crust. The region has elevated bathymetry relative to surrounding oceanic crust, diverse and silica-rich rocks, and relatively thick and low-velocity crustal structure.

Its isolation from Australia and large area support its definition as a continent—Zealandia. Zealandia was formerly part of Gondwana. Today it is 94% submerged, mainly as a result of widespread Late Cretaceous crustal thinning preceding supercontinent breakup and consequent isostatic balance.
