(University of the Western Cape, 2014)This study is focused on the Akanani prospect area, approximately 25 km north-west of the town of Mokopane, Limpopo Province where exploration geologists at the study area have classified the ‘pyroxenitic’ units into P1, ... -
The geochemistry, geochronology and petrogenetic characteristics of two granitic suites on the eastern margin of the Namaqua Sector, Namaqua-Natal Mobile Belt, South Africa
(University of the Western Cape, 2016)The group of granites on the eastern margin of the Mesoproterozoic Namaqua sector of the polydeformed and highly metamorphosed Namaqua-Natal Province of southern Africa is known as the Keimoes Suite. The suite includes ... -
Geology, geochemistry and Sr-Nd isotope analysis of the Vredenburg Batholith and Cape Columbine Granites Paternoster/Vredenburg, South Africa: Implications on their petrogenesis, tectonic setting, and sources.
(University of the Western Cape, 2018)The late- to post-collisional Cape Granite Suite (CGS) located in the southwest of South Africa is comprised of S-, I-, and A-type granites, mafic intrusives, and volcanic flows. The CGS is interpreted to have formed ... -
High-grade metamorphism, anatexis and deformation of metasedimentary rocks from the Kamiesberg Group near Kliprand, Southern Bushmanland Domain, Namaqua Metamorphic Province
(University of the Western Cape, 2022)Migmatitic metapelites of the Kamiesberg Group are distributed throughout the central Bushmanland Domain (Namaqua Metamorphic Province) which is otherwise dominated by felsic gneisses. This study focusses on an outcrop ... -
Regional structure of the Central Kalahari sub-basin and the geometry and effect of the dolerite sills in the area
(University of the Western Cape, 2014)The potential for Coal Bed Methane (CBM) has been assessed in the Karoo-aged coal seams in Eastern Botswana. This region is underlain by the Central Kalahari sub-basin of the Karoo Sequence and hosts a major thermal coal ...
