Black Reef
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Black Reef is a region of the Jericho Reach in the Calixis Sector.[1]
Located at the extreme edge of the Canis Salient towards the coreward rim of the Sector, it has for decades been a natural shield for the Tau Empire against the Achilus Crusade. The Reef is impassable for Warp Engine-equipped ships due to immaterial disturbances, forcing vessels to return to realspace. A number of ancient civilizations and relics are at the core of the reef, something that has attracted both Tau and Human explorers.[1]
