Here, i have presented some important points as a reason for selecting Barberton Makhonjwa Mountains as a world heritage site by the UNESCO.

Barberton Makhonjwa Mountain is situated in Northeast of South Africa with Barberton Greenstone Belt that covers 40% of its total area. The Greenstone Belt is the most popular and oldest geological structure of the world.

This Mountain has many sedimentary and volcanic rocks that are nearly 3.25 billion years old that posses the geological records of the earth.

This mountain surfs over many historical events like meteorite impacts, volcanic eruption, early life of the planet and continental drift.

There is evidence that the life on our planet have started here in this mountain one billion years earlier than previously estimated.
