FORMATION
The depressed areas of a rift valley are formed by one or more grabens. A graben is a fallen portion of land with faults on 2 or more sides. When outer landmasses move away from the fault zones, the land in the middle can slowly drop during a period of thousands of years. This forms a lower portion of land called a graben. A graben may continue to drop and become the floor of a rift valley.
CHARACTERISTICS
1. a portion of land that drops , forms the valley
2. it is bordered by fault zones , and separates land masses.
