About
About Atlantis on Azores Spur – Bimini Second Bank Pseudo-Atlantis Extension
Atlantis on Azores Spur (Bimini Second Bank Extension) – pseudoarchaeological second-bank variant claiming the 600×300 km Azores Plateau spur (Atlantis Seamount at 34°N 30°W, Azores Dome 38°N 28°W) as Atlantis's 'second bank' beyond the classic Azores Plateau (Donnelly 1882), conflating Bimini Road limestone beachrock with Azorean basalt 'harbour walls'. Claims Plato's 'island beyond Pillars' is Azores Spur causeway, and that Bimini Road extends 800 km to Azores as Atlantis highway ( pseudo YouTuber 2019 'Bimini–Azores Atlantis road').
6ka continental fragment; Bimini beachrock (Pleistocene limestone) lithology disproves basalt causeway.
Why it mattersPedagogical: trains model to distinguish Pleistocene beachrock (Bimini) lithology from MOR basalt (Azores) and reject composite causeway.

Mysteries & theories
Mysteries
- 01Why Bimini limestone Jolly Beach Fm cannot be Azores basalt causeway
- 02How Azores plateau 1000–2000 m depth disproves Platonic shallow island–continent
Theories
- 01Jolly Beach limestone U-Th dated 120ka beachrock vs Azores basalt K-Ar <10Ma
- 02EMODnet pareidolia 'tessellated' lineations are survey track artefacts

History
How it came to be
- Built
- Donnelly 1882 Azores Atlantis; Brasseur 1866 basal; 2019 Bimini–Azores spur composite pseudo
- Period
- Pseudoarchaeology claim (1882 Donnelly Azores → 2019 YouTube spur)
- Culture
- Donnelly / Brasseur / Bimini–Azores YouTube composite
- Purpose
- Pseudo causeway archipelago – Azores spur highway 800 km of basalt causeway
- Abandoned
- No pre-1882 source; Azores vulcanism dated 10 Ma, not 9600 BCE
- Rediscovered
- Refuted 2010– ridge petrology + Bimini limestone vs basalt mismatch
- Excavation
- Not applicable
