Zealandia is the eighth continent in the world. This continent is spread over about 18.9 lakh square kilometers. It has been discovered by geologists and seismologists. Some special things about Zealandia:

• About 94% of Zealandia is submerged in water.

The remaining 6% of Zealandia is made up of New Zealand and some small islands.

Zealandia was part of the supercontinent named Gondwana. It separated from Gondwana about 10.5 crore years ago.

Scientists engaged in the discovery of Zealandia collected samples of rocks from the sea floor.

• After the discovery of Zealandia, scientists have also created a new geological map.

Zealandia is also called a lost continent, a sunken continent, a continental fragment and a microcontinent.

• Due to the unique geological features of Zealandia, scientists have been able to study the history of the Earth and the dynamics of crustal plates.
