The Proto-Vishnuan Ocean is an ocean that formed in the Neohadean. It was a sea that stretched from the Kaapvaal craton and all the way down to North China and the Congo.
Closure of the ocean[]
The Proto-Vishnuan Ocean began to close around 1,750 Mya (million years ago) when the Deftero-Vishnuan seaway was widening. Around 200 million years later after this event began, Laurentia and most of the Proto-Australia joint together, making this ocean remain as a small, shallow bed no bigger than a wooden hut you would see today, and no taller than an adult mouse would be today.
