The Mid-Atlantic Ridge is a mid-ocean ridge. (The mid ocean ridge systems are the largest geological features on the planet.) It is a divergent tectonic plate boundary located along the surface of the Atlantic Ocean. It is also part of the longest mountain range in the world, the Andes.

It was 96 Million years ago when Africa was so close to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The Mid-Atlantic Ridge moves 2.5 cm per year. To get that we have 2,400 divided by 2.5 is equal to 960, then multiply it by 100,000. The total is 96,000,000.
