..., no outcrops of Archean rocks have yet been found. The Bushmanland Group metasediments were derived largely from 1850 to 2100 Ma Paleoproterozoic rocks, which probably reflects their provenance in the Richtersveld subprovince to the north. However, they also contain Mesoproterozoic detrital zircon which...

Geologic maps. A. Location and tectonic subdivision of the Bushmanland ore district in southwestern Africa. B. Geology of the Bushmanland ore district, showing the four giant ore deposits (Black Mountain Deeps is an extension of Black Mountain). Supracrustal rocks belong to the Bushmanland Group and the Koeris Formation (specified in Fig. 2) but are not differentiated at this scale, although they have different ages. The section A–B and changes in stratigraphic column are shown in Figure 2.

Comparison of previous and proposed lithostratigraphic nomenclature and subdivision of the Bushmanland Group for the Aggeneys terrain. Note that the stratigraphic columns of Paizes (1975), SACS (1980), Colliston (1983), Praekelt (1984; 1994), Strydom (1985), Colliston et al. (1989), and Praekelt et al. (1993; 1997) have been omitted from this compilation as they are thought to be too complex.
