Expanded_Motivation: 

The study area is situated within the Karoo Super Group which is partly covered by Tertiary calcrete sediments and Quaternary aeolian sands of Kalahari Group as well as the alluvium sediments along drainage courses. These sediments cover the underlying rocks of the Namaqua Natal Metamorphic Province. The Karoo sediments are mainly those of the Dwyka Group of the lower Karoo Super Group (tillite, diacmictite, sandstones and shales). The Tertiary sediments are mainly calcrete deposits, Kalahari Group sediments are wind-blown sands and sand dunes of Gordonia Formation. The occurrence of Lead (Pb), Copper (Cu) and Zinc (Zn) is associated with the hydrothermal enrichment along this Adjoining Geelvloer Thrust or Pofadder Lineament.
