... and encompasses the boundary of Triassic and Jurassic in Southern Africa. The Formation is considered a stratigraphic equivalent of the Upper Omingonde Formation, Etjo Basin, Namibia, with the Bodibeng Sandstone Formation, Tuli Basin, Botswana, with the upper Mosolotsane Formation, Kalahari Karoo Basin. All Upper...

Sandstone and the Mosolotsane Formations where the Mosolotsane Formation consists of red and green sandstones and mudstones, and the Ntane Sandstone formation consisting of medium-grained eolian sands ( Bordy et al., 2010 ). The extensive flood basalts of the Stormberg Group overlay the various sequences...

... Formations; the Mosolotsane Mudstone, containing brackish to saline water; and the Ecca Group, consisting of impervious sandstone and mudstone units. The target aquifer is the Ntane Sandstone, with the contact zone to the overlying basalt having been identified as the most prospective zone. The perturbations...

The Tlapana Formation unconformably overlies basement granite-gneiss and is composed of interbedded sandstones, carbonaceous mudstones and thin coal measures. The latter are particularly useful markers since three distinct...

..., and are locally referred to as ‘silkies’. These sandstones are mottled and locally bioturbated, and based on lithological similarities, have been tentatively correlated to the Upper Karoo Mosolotsane Formation in Botswana and the Lisbon Formation in the Ellisras Basin ( Bordy et al., 2010 ).

...S. Ringrose; L. Cassidy; S. Diskin; S.H. Coetzee Abstract New evidence was sought for sub-pan silcrete formation along the southern margin of Ntwetwe Pan in the Botswana Makgadikgadi basin. This was achieved by integrating drillhole and surface sample descriptions with element and isocon analysis...
