Prominently visible in the false-colour image from PROBA-V is the edge of the Malanje highlands (in red), around 1000 to 1100 m high and fertile, in the west and the Kwango River valley in the east, rich in mineral resources. The border between Malanje and Lunda Norte provinces is formed by the Loanda River, marked by its vegetated banks in red (centre), that joins the transboundary Kwango River shared by Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo further north. Kwango River is shown flowing from its mudplains in the southeast corner (orange) to the north (lightblue).
