LINKS TO THE ISLE OF MAN TT VIDEOS 1. INTRODUCTION In the past worthwhile “signature events” brought fame and fortune to countries, provinces and cities all over the world. Modern times with its competition on all fronts and increasing entertainment options make it very difficult to find a place in the sun for any new activity, and it is not easy to create such events without simply copying another event. Our aim was to find an event that would stand out and live up to the challenge of becoming a Signature event for Mpumalanga. This presentation tells you more. 2. THE SABIE 109TT This will be an event based on international proven results that will, combined with local vision and drive, create a Signature event for Mpumalanga. Chances are that it will become one of the best and most exciting South African Sporting events, ever! This event will be based on a world-renowned motorcycle race, held annually for more than a century on the Isle of Man. 3. THE ISLE OF MAN TT The Isle of Man TT is a race for motorcycles that has been running since 1907. It is an iconic motorcycle race and seen as the ultimate test for man and machine. Thousands of spectators flock to the Isle of Man annually to take in this incredible event filled with road-gladiators and real heroes – people who share the adrenaline rush with every spectator and millions of TV viewers all over the world. Words simply cannot describe it. 4. MOTIVATION FOR THE SABIE 109TT The roads flowing through the panoramic Mpumalanga Province are renowned among the biking fraternity as arguably the best “biker-roads” in South Africa. Bikers from all over have been travelling to the towns of Sabie, Hazyview and Graskop to enjoy these roads over many years. The combination of these roads, the popularity of the area and the challenge offered to the adventurous tourist made the decision of the Sabie 109TT Company easy. We decided to propose an event with all the required potential to become Mpumalanga’s Signature. An event that would:- • promote the region, • enhance tourism, • create jobs in the community and • generate multiple opportunities. 5. THE COMPANY Sabie 109TT (Pty) Ltd was formed with an infrastructure able to handle events of this prestigious nature. The shareholders are four local professional business persons, while a fifth experienced partner, professionally involved in motorsport was included to further proper planning and professional management of the proposed events. Sabie 109TT (Pty) Ltd was also set-up to be BEE compliant. Restructuring to conform is possible when required. We are ready, willing and able to move, the moment we receive the green light from the Mpumalanga government. 6. THE ROAD TO THE SABIE 109TT We knew that to uplift and add value to the area, we needed to find a practical and if possible also a proven way to utilise existing facilities that would keep cost down. At first it seemed impossible to find such combination but we persevered. Ideas were placed on the table, but no matter what, one single aspect kept popping up and we found the answer right here, almost naturally on our doorstep. This was motorcycle country! We realised that the area lent itself naturally to an event that would fulfil all our aspirations, rejuvenate the area and draw tourists to it. Intense research into the world of motorcycle enthusiasts and discussions with various experts involved in especially the iconic Isle of Man TT races, showed that we could create an equally successful event in Mpumalanga using the 109km between Sabie, Hazyview and Graskop or parts thereof. The mystique of the area, the challenge and atmosphere of an official motorcycle event, properly marketed would draw enthusiasts from all over the world. We had 109kms of magic to use and the name SABIE 109TT stuck. 7. ADVANTAGES The positive aspects of the SABIE 109TT will make it stand on its own as an exceptional event and will have positive spin-off in other important areas. It will create • much needed job opportunities, • generate a substantial contribution to infrastructure maintenance, and will • draw national as well as foreign investment to the area. Fact is, we found all the ingredients for the success recipe right here under our noses, ready to use. 8. EVENTS The Sabie 109TT company plans to host at least two events per annum, while building up to what we see as the ultimate “Signature event”, the Sabie 109TT (International) during 2017/2018. The intended development program leading to the Sabie 109TT is: • start with a “pilot” event in July 2015, and • then host the SABIE22TT again in 2016 and 2017 possibly over different sections of the route. • Then in 2018 with teething problems and unforeseen issues under control we should be in a position to present the real McCoy - The International SABIE 109TT Additional supporting events at different times of the year will be hosted over different sections of the route such as for instance Kowyns Pass for Hill Climbs and/or Time Trails for motorcycles and Super Cars. The “pilot” event in 2015 - the Sabie 22TT will be limited to 100 entries for motorcycles and 50 for cars and will serve as the showcase event for the intended series. There is an excellent chance that we may draw one or more International entrants to this event, but if we are able to generate financial support to bring them to South Africa – there will be more. International participation will generate exceptional interest that we will have to control by limiting spectator numbers for the first event. This “precaution” will increase the value of the event and ensure that we will be able to handle all the associated problems. 9. CRUCIAL FACTORS This project is dependent on the following: 9.1 AGREEMENT Exclusive rights to SABIE109TT (PTY) LTD to host and/or control motorsport and related events over the specified 109kms of tar road between Sabie, Hazeyview and Graskop to Sabie for an extended period of no less than seven years with renewal options. Such an agreement is essential to enable us to enter into long-term sponsorship-negotiations ensuring continuity for sponsors, the business community, organisers, fans and of course the area. 9.2 MANAGEMENT OF ROUTE FOR THE SPECIFIC PURPOSE It is also very important that you entrust us to manage the route professionally for the period and not allow any “rogues” to endanger the reputation of this Signature event. 9.3 ROAD MAINTENANCE The program is spread over a number of years allowing enough time for the resurfacing of the route where required. At this stage the road section for the SABIE 22TT is 99% ready. We have at our own costs cleaned up the sides of the road for an inspection by the Motorsport controlling body in South Africa – MSA. We have obtained their approval subject to the road and area being ready for the first event. The maintenance will have to include some additional safety barriers, suitable and biker friendly markings such as cats-eyes when replaced. It is noteworthy that all repairs to this route will be beneficial to and form part of the essential infrastructure anyway. Money well spent all the time. 9.4 WRITTEN PERMISSIONS It is critical that we receive written permission for the 2015 events within the next month and a written agreement for the extended period before end 2014. Time is of essence as further delays will set this project back unnecessary. It must be noted that areas such as the Western Cape could also decide to jump onto this lucrative band-wagon, as the intended event is no longer secret due to us having to discuss it with a number of people to determine its potential. An announcement from our side will probably deter them from competing with us. 9.5 MEDIA AND PROMOTION We will appreciate involvement from the government in making facilities available for media promotions and important celebrities when needed. The success of this incredible event lies in your hands! 10. PROJECTED 22TT INCOME After calculating the true potential for the first event, the prediction is that it should boost the local economy by around R46m. This activity will create temporary jobs for about 200 people and casual jobs for another 400. With this goes the training for the required tasks, which knowledge and skills will come in handy in future. 11. VALUABLE SUPPORTING INFORMATION During our research, it came as a pleasant surprise to note that more than 75 000 people from the biker fraternity took part in a recent “Toy-Run” in South Africa for underprivileged children. Margate in KwaZulu had a “Harley Davidson weekend” recently and drew 25000 people to the area! This is massive and if we succeed in equalling these figures – Mpumalanga will have its Signature Event! The majority of all participants in these events, including fans, are from the LSM 8 to 10 groups. The International events will attract international racing competitors that will impact on spectator value and numbers. Effective marketing and strategic planning are all we need.

  • The Geology and Geochemistry of the Sterkspruit Intrusion, Barberton Mountain Land, Mpumalanga Province
    THE GEOLOGY AND GEOCHEMISTRY OF THE STERKSPRUIT INTRUSION, BARBERTON MOUNTAIN LAND, MPUMALANGA PROVINCE Gavin Patrick Conway A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. Johannesburg, 1997 11 DECLARATION I declare that this dissertation is my own, unaided work. It is being submitted for the Degree of Master of Science in the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any degree or examination in any other University. __I_It __ ·daYOf A~V\.-~t 19 't1-- 111 ABSTRACT The Sterkspruit Intrusion, in the south-western portion of the Barberton greenstone belt, is a sill-like body containing rocks of gabbroic to dioritic composition. It is hosted by a sequence of komatiitic basalts and komatiites of the Lower Onverwacht Group. The intrusion is considered unique in this area in that it lacks ultramafic components and has no affinities with the surrounding mafic- to- ultramafic lavas. The gabbroic suite also contains an unusual abundance of quartz, and the chill margin shows an evolved quartz-normative, tholeiitic parental magma. Based on petrographic and geochemical evidence, the intrusion can be subdivided into four gabbroic zones and a quartz diorite, which is an end product of a differentiating magma. The chill margin records an MgO content of 4.8%, an Mg# of 42, an Si02 value of 52.5% and a normative plagioclase composition of An 44. The sill-like nature of the body, indicated by geochemical trends, and the steep sub-vertical layering, point to a body that has been tilted along with the surrounding lavas.
