Barendskraal 76, southern part of Barendskloof. Riverine cliff sections through thick, lenticular (or thickening and thinning), amalgamated channel sandstone bodies of lowermost Abrahamskraal Fm (possibly = Combrinkskraal Member sensu stricto), close to Ecca – Beaufort boundary. Bases of thick sandstone packages are loaded on a large scale. Between cliff-forming sandstone bodies are medium-bedded, tabular to lenticular, fine-grained, sharp-based sandstones and grey-green massive to thin-bedded mudrocks. No maroon mudrocks or wave rippled surfaces seen. Basal package of khaki-brown, hackly-weathering mudrocks and brownish tabular sandstones beneath major cliff-forming sandstone in the south. Above zone of major sandstone packages the Lower Beaufort Group shows stepped outcrop with much thinner, tabular, laterallypersistent sandstone bodies (e.g. southern end of Barensdkloof).
