Rift valley is any elongated trough formed by the subsidence of a segment of the Earth’s crust between dip-slip, or normal, faults. Rift valleys are usually narrow and long, some measuring hundreds of kilometres in length. Their floors are relatively flat, owing in large part to volcanic deposition and marine or lacustrine sedimentation.
