Sorry guys, incoming wall o text.
Atlantis for most of its time comprised populated centers over much of the Earth including large mining centers in the high isolated plateaus of South America.
Atlantis was freaking named after it's supposed location in the Atlantic Ocean. How could the Ancient Greeks be inspired by a continent that they didn't even know existed?
The Atlantians extracted aluminum, the most abundant metal element found in the Earth's crust directly from the soil without the need of electrolysis and used it for most of their buildings.
Aluminum appears almost entirely in mineral compounds, so there is no way to use it straight out of the ground. One of the most important sources of Aluminum today is recycling, rather than new production. In fact, over the Summer the Covid crisis forced many states to suspend can recycling and this actually triggered an Aluminum shortage.
The present day Islands of the Azores are mountain tops of the original.
The Azores are volcanic islands, not submerged mountains.
...Sodom was located near the North East border of what is now Washington State in the United States, and British Columbia in Canada. Gomorrah was located in what is now offshore the city of Miami, Florida.
Abraham's nephew Lot lived in Sodom. Care to explain how he got all the way from the Middle East to North America and then back to the Middle East afterword? Also Sodom and Gomorrah were mentioned together because they were neighbors, not separated by an entire freaking continent.
