The east-west Guinea fracture zone is situated off Sierra Leone, West Africa. The estimated topographic left lateral displacement is about 230 kilometers. This fracture zone is the eastern analog of the Vema fracture zone, with its associated troughs, and of the Barracuda Fault. The Guinea fracture zone marks the northern boundary on the African coast of a wide zone of left lateral shear in the equatorial Atlantic.
东西向几内亚断裂带位于西非塞拉利昂近海。据估计,其地形左旋位移约为 230 公里。这条断裂带是维马断裂带及其相关海槽以及大梭鱼断层在东侧的对应物。几内亚断裂带标志着赤道大西洋中一个宽阔的左旋剪切带在非洲海岸的北界。
