  • 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.

  • E&T Abbatoir Piet Retief Exemp Letter.Pdf
    10 September 2018 Attention: Mr Justin Bowers (Ecoleges Environmental Consultants) Dear Justin RE: E&T Abattoir and Feedlot, Portions 8 & 10 of the farm Potgietershoop 151 HT, Piet Retief, Mpumalanga Province. Background The project comprises a Water Use License and Waste Management License application in accordance with the Regulations as stipulated in the Water Use License Regulations of the National Water Act (Act 36 of 1998), for the proposed construction of four Mortality Pits on an existing abattoir and feedlot facility on the farm Potgietershoop 151 HT near the town Piet Retief, Mpumalanga. The Mortality Pits consists of a concrete structure each of which is 3,5 m high. An area of approximately 2 500 square metres will be impacted upon in the construction of the mortality pits and a composting facility. The application is being facilitated by Ecoleges Environmental Consultants who, through SAHRA, requested heritage input to identify potential impacts pertaining to this project. Palaeontology was exempted by SAHRA for this project. The Study area The proposed project is located on Portions 8 and 10 of the farm Potgietershoop 151 HT, situated a short distance south of the town Piet Retief in Mpumalanga Province. The current land use of the site is feedlot and abattoir facilities. The current developments would have destroyed any surface indicators of archaeological resources. Fig. 1. General site conditions.

    FF F Msukaligwa Local 1e- + Municipality AMENDED 2020 / 2021 IDP ii Foreword by the Executive Mayor Since the dawn of democracy, practitioners of public affairs have been called upon to refine and rationalize the various forms of public engagements to ensure the best outcomes for all stakeholders. Public management and governance has seen a myriad of demands on the rules of engagement, implementation of decisions and accounting for outcomes. Our local government sphere often faces the perennial demands to achieve more with disproportionately meagre resources. This scenario calls for closer interaction and appreciation of priorities as modern society becomes more diverse, not only on cultures or values but also on generational tastes and expectations. Maximum attendance, meaningful participation, rational expectations, are virtues than still need to be cultivated further if we are to emerge from consultations with the requisite outcome of our consultation. The advent of the Corona-virus and the subsequent declaration of the lockdown, might put a damper on our consultation. Public participation as we know it has been restricted to video conferencing or other form of electronic communication. This method has a potential of polarising communities and create some form of unnecessary 'class struggle'. We all appreciate the dire choices we faced and have left no stone unturned in ensuring that all forms of communication are utilized to bring the message of consultation home. Inadvertently, the lockdown regulations confined residents to their homes and it could be assumed that they were therefore available to listen to the radio and had the time to read the publications we sent out.

  • Msukaligwa Local Municipality
    DRAFT IDP 2010/2011 ii Foreword by the Executive Mayor The Constitution, Act 108 of 1996 requires municipalities to „promote the social and economic development of the people and communities. We have been entrusted with providing basic services on continuous basis to both rural and urban areas, and also to ensure that development in these communities is sustainable. Our IDP takes a closer look at creating an enabling environment for local as well as international investors, thus contributing to economic growth and job creation. This is in line with the provincial growth and development strategy. The IDP is a key document on daily work and programme of the municipality. The Spatial Development Plan is an important part of the IDP. The SDP refer to the planning choices that municipality need to make when it comes to densification, the encroachment of development and the location of new settlement. The Municipality has embarked on a process of ensuring the implementation of key priority policies on Women, Youth and People with disabilities empowerment and Gender equity, HIV/AIDS, Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment, Employment equity and Transformation, Skills development and Good governance. All policies and relevant implementation framework have been drawn within the prescripts of national and provincial legislation. We acknowledge the challenges of service delivery in the last decade and that we have not been able to meet all the needs identified as priorities due to budgetary constraints. We however wish to mobilize all our resources in a focused, transparent and equitable manner in order to address the pressing service delivery challenges and also request for your participation and contribution.
