A carbonatite sample from Phalaborwa, South Africa, consists of apatite, magnetite and a calcite-dolomite 'perthite' which is interpreted as being due to exsolution of dolomite from a high-Mg calcite precursor. Carbon and oxygen isotope data indicate that the carbonates are equilibrated.
One third of children in South Africa at risk of online violence, exploitation and abuse PRETORIA, 08 February 2021 – More than 95 per cent of children in South Africa have access to the Internet regularly, but their risky online behaviour can expose them to online violence, exploitation and abuse, according to the 'SA Kids Online Study ...

In the Far West Rand of South Africa, catastrophic sinkholes induced by dewatering of dolomite aquifers for gold mining have caused a total of 38 fatalities (Buttrick et al., 2001; De Bruyn and ...
Abstract. Restoration of estuarine function to the Lake St Lucia system, the largest estuary in South Africa, was initiated in 2010. Significant change began with the reversal of a mouth management policy that was adopted in 1952 and maintained for the next 60 years, focusing on the separation of a major tributary, the uMfolozi River, from …
In this study, Neural Network Autoregression (NNAR) was applied to obtain groundwater level predictions in the Steenkoppies compartment of the Gauteng and North West Dolomite Aquifer in South Africa. Multiple variables (rainfall, temperature, groundwater usage and spring discharge from the Maloney's Eye spring) were chosen as input …
ABSTRACT: The karstified dolomites of the Chuniespoort Group are vital water resources for the expanding rural, urban and industrial complexes in Gauteng and Rustenburg, South Africa. Another example of the importance of the dolomites is their roles in sustaining the protected areas of the Blyde River Canyon and Sudwala Caves, Mpumalanga, South ...
The present pressure on expansion of urban and agricultural development onto the dolomites is cause for major concern due to the enormous potential for pollution of the …
South Africa - British Occupation, Colonization, Boer War: When Great Britain went to war with France in 1793, both countries tried to capture the Cape so as to control the important sea route to the East. The British occupied the Cape in 1795, ending the Dutch East India Company's role in the region. Although the British relinquished the colony to the Dutch in …

Construction on dolomite in south Africa. Wagener, Fritz Von M. ; Day, Peter W. Damage to structures and loss of life have been more severe on dolomite than on any other geological formation in southern Africa. The subsidence that occurs on dolomitic terrain following development or during dewatering has given dolomite a notorious reputation ...

Abstract. Stromatolites of the South African Precambrian have been abundantly described. In 1935 Young compared the stromatolites of the Transvaal Dolomite with recent algal structures, at that time discovered by Black (1933) in the Bahamas. Truswell and Eriksson (1972, 1973,1974) and Button (1971,1973) gave a valuable classification of these ...

The dolomites of the West Rand comprise one of South Africa's most natural water resources, and overlie the reefs of the richest gold mines in the world. The pumping of …
These are mainly the dolomites of the Kanye Basin in southern Botswana, which is an important dolomite karst outside South Africa. The dolomites of this basin have a similar lithostatigraphy to those of the old Transvaal province, as they belong to the Transvaal Supergroup (Altermann and Wotherspoon, 1995; Eriksson et al., 1995).
The dolomite aquifer is the largest water source in northern South Africa. The flow dynamics of the dolomite aquifer is investigated by using analyses of the hydro-chemical parameters and isotopes (3 H, δ 2 H, δ 18 O, δ 13 C-DIC and 14 C-DIC) of spring samples.Recharge areas of the dolomite aquifer are confirmed through interpretation of …
