Extractions: The Comoro Islands are an archipelago of four islands and several islets located in the western Indian Ocean about ten to twelve degrees south of the Equator and less than 200 miles off the East African coast. They lie approximately halfway between the island of Madagascar and northern Mozambique at the northern end of the Mozambique Channel. The archipelago is the result of volcanic action along a fissure in the seabed running west-northwest to east-southeast. The total area of the four islands is 785 square miles (2,034 square kilometers). The four major islands are Ngazidja, Mwali, Nzwani, and Mayotte (Maore). Ngazidja is the largest and the youngest island in the archipelago. It is the most westerly of the islands, lying 188 miles from Mozambique. Ngazidja has an active volcano that rises to a height of 7,746 feet (2,361 meters) above sea level. Mwali, 28 miles south-southeast of Ngazidja, is the smallest of the islands with a central mountain range that rises 2,556 feet (790 meters) above sea level. Nzwani lies about twenty-five miles easterly of Mwali, has a central peak that rises 5,072 feet (1,575 meters) above sea level. It also has several swift running streams that cascade down to long, sandy beaches. Forty-four miles to the southeast of Nzwani is Mayotte (Maore), the oldest of the islands. It is almost surrounded by a barrier reef and is fairly flat with slow meandering streams and mangrove swamps. Click on the following for more details about the four islands:

Extractions: Content Importance of coral reefs Geography Population ... Administration Geography Mayotte (375 km ) is located at 12°45' S and 45°10' E, and is made up of two main islands, Grande Terre (360 km , about 40 km long by 20 km in width), and Petite-Terre or Pamandzi (13 km ). The group also includes 18 volcanic and/or coral islets (2 km ) scattered in the lagoon. Bénara, at 660 m, is the highest point. The coastline (185 km) is indented with numerous deep bays and rocky capes. The island is surrounded by a barrier reef system enclosing a very wide lagoon and extending over a total length of 197 km, including 40 km of submerged reefs to the north (Banc de l'Iris). The lagoon covers about 1.500 km , i.e. a lagoon to land ratio of 80/20. The Exclusive Economic Zone covers 73 600 km Also notable is the Zélée coral bank located in the EEZ of Mayotte. Menu Population In 1997, Mayotte's population was estimated at 130.000 inhabitants, with an average density of 349 inhabitants per km . If the birth rate remains similar to that of 1991, population density is expected to exceed 650 per km2 by 2010. During the period between the two last censuses, the average annual rate of population increase was 5.8%, one of the highest in the world. The population is very unevenly distributed, with an increasing gap between the Mamoudzou urban area with 21.5% of the population, the north of the island (over 75%) and the more sparsely populated rural areas.
