Ancient Lost Continent Discovered in Indian Ocean 25/02/2013
This article is about a new continent discovered in the Indian Ocean near Madagascar, that is called Mauritius. Scientists think that this continent is about 9 million years old and it was made by underwater volcanos that released there lava; New studies say that the island located in southeastern has some minerals in the beaches that are older that the island there for; the studies of the island showed that when the land separated Madagascar, india and Mauritius where together even before the Indian Ocean was created. This island is a quarter of Madagascar's size and when it separated from India and Madagascar it drowned. After a while this Island where the minerals are found came up to the surface again. People thing that there is evidence messing to make sure this microcontinent is real, but most people think this is true.
This article is very interesting because it shows something totally new something know one have heart about and some people in the article even call this microcontinent as Atlantis thats why I find it really interesting.
I connect this article in to my real life because people always say that everything humans need to know are already discovered and this article proves wrong and makes me want to discover something with a big inportant like this microcontinent.
The Area of Interaction of this article is Human Ingenuity because they show in the article the technology that scientist use to analyze this minerals and rocks to compare it with underwater sand form this microcontinent and probably in the next years people will find some big discoveries like this more often.
