Sahara is on the shield of Africa.

The African shield is made up of highly folded and exposed Precambrian rocks. Due to the stability of the shield, the later Paleozoic layers remain horizontal and relatively unchanged. In most parts of Sahara, these formations are covered with Mesozoic sediments (such as Algeria, southern Tunisia, northern Libyan limestone, and Nubian sandstone in the Libyan desert), along with many of the basins of important regions,,, It's equivalent. In northern Sahara, these formations are also associated with a series of basins and depressions extending from an oasis in western Egypt to Scotland in Algeria.
