Mesozoic rift basins of the Eastern and Western Cape provinces of South Africa and the major units of the onshore Uitenhage Group. The offshore extension of the Uitenhage Group is only shown schematically. The Worcester-Pletmos basin line comprises the Worcester, Robertson, Swellendam, Heidelberg, Mossel Bay, Knysna and Plettenberg Bay Basins, whereas the Gamtoos-Oudtshoorn Basin line contains the Oudtshoorn, Vlakteplaas, Georginda, Baviaanskloof and Gamtoos Basins. These exceptionally long, parallel fault arrays exploit pre-existing weaknesses in the Cape Fold Belt (Fouché et al., 1992; Paton, 2006). The Jurassic Suurberg Group is shown in the Algoa Basin, but the contentious Suurberg Fault, supposedly bounding the Algoa Basin to the north, is not included (Toerien, 1991). The exact extent of the Robberg, Hartenbos and Brenton Formations, which are also constituents of the Uitenhage Group, cannot be shown at this scale. Abbreviations: E = Enon; B = Bredasdorp; BT = Bethelsdorp; C = Colchester; G = George; H = Heidelberg; HN = Hankey; HR = Herbertsdale; K = Kirkwood; M = Mossel Bay; O = Oudtshoorn; P = Paterson; PE = Port Elizabeth; U = Uitenhage; W=Worcester.

The offshore extension of the Uitenhage Group is only shown schematically. The Worcester-Pletmos basin line comprises the Worcester, Robertson, Swellendam, Heidelberg, Mossel Bay, Knysna and Plettenberg Bay Basins, whereas the Gamtoos-Oudtshoorn basin line contains the Oudtshoorn, Vlakteplaas, Georgida, Baviaanskloof and Gamtoos Basins. The exceptionally long, parallel fault arrays (Cango and Worcester Faults) exploit pre-existing weaknesses in the Cape Fold Belt (Fouché et al., 1992; Paton, 2006). The Jurassic Suurberg Group is shown in the Algoa Basin, but the contentious Suurberg Fault, supposedly bounding the Algoa Basin to the north, is not included (Toerien, 1991). White crossed circles indicate location of boreholes referenced in text. The Robberg, Hartenbos and Brenton Formations, which are also constituents of the Uitenhage Group, are not shown due to their small aerial extent.
