  ABSTRACT: An interpretation of high resolution aeromagnetic data was carried out to provide new information about the study area. Located between latitude 10°30'N and 11°00'N and longitude 8°30'E and 9°00'E, the interpretation revealed previously unknown folds and magnetic anomaly with a signature that is similar to those associated with ring complexes in the study area but without the surface manifestation that is associated with the complexes. Qualitatively interpreted as unexposed ring complex, the magnetic anomaly is underlain by cross-over of major lineaments; implying presence of weak zone that probably allowed the volcanic eruption that initiated the emplacement of the source of the anomaly. A depth that ranges from outcrop to 1200 m and from outcrop to 1800 m is respectively suggested for the unexposed ring complex and folds by the Euler deconvolution results.
