  • Kamieskroon Bulk Water Supply, Portion 4 of Farm 445, Kamiesberg Municipality, Northern Cape
    1 PALAEONTOLOGICAL HERITAGE COMMENT: KAMIESKROON BULK WATER SUPPLY, PORTION 4 OF FARM 445, KAMIESBERG MUNICIPALITY, NORTHERN CAPE John E. Almond PhD (Cantab.) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010, RSA [email protected] January 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The overall palaeontological impact significance of the proposed Bulk Water Supply System development on Portion 4 of Farm 445 near Kamieskroon, Namaqualand, Northern Cape, is considered to be VERY LOW because the study area is underlain by unfossiliferous metamorphic basement rocks (granite-gneisses, migmatites etc) and / or mantled by superficial sediments of low palaeontological sensitivity while the development footprint is very small and in part already disturbed. It is therefore recommended that, pending the exposure of significant new fossils during development, exemption from further specialist palaeontological studies and mitigation be granted for this development. 1. PROJECT OUTLINE The proposed Bulk Water Supply System development on Portion 4 of Farm 445 near Kamieskroon, Kamiesberg Municipality, Northern Cape involves the following infrastructural components (CTS Heritage 2017; Fig. 1): • equipment for existing boreholes; • equipment for additional boreholes; • construction of a 600kl clean water storage reservoir; • installation of pipelines; • construction of a Water Treatment Works (desalination plant) and associated evaporation ponds (waste brine). 2. GEOLOGICAL CONTEXT The footprint of the proposed Bulk Water Supply System development is situated at c. 770 m asl in fairly flat, disturbed, semi-arid, rocky terrain on the outskirts of the town of Kamieskroon, some 600 m southeast of the N7 trunk road (Fig. 1). The geology of the study area near Kamieskroon is shown on the 1: 250 000 geology map 3017 Garies (Council for Geoscience, Pretoria; Fig.

S. Lindeque1,2,3, M.J. de Wit4 1. Now at Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research, Geophysics, Building D3280, Am Alten Hafen 26, 27568 Bremerhaven, Germany, [email protected] 2. Council for Geoscience, Western Cape, P.O. Box 572, Bellville 7535, Cape Town, South Africa 3. GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam, Section 2.2, Telegrafenberg, 14473 Potsdam, Germany 4. AEON - Africa Earth Observatory Network and Department of Geological Sciences, University of Cape Town, Rondebosch 7701, South Africa, [email protected] ABSTRACT The deep crust of the southernmost margin of Africa contains unresolved tectonic features such as the Paleozoic Cape Fold Belt (CFB), the Paleozoic-Mesozoic Karroo Basin and the largest terrestrial magnetic anomaly, the Beattie Magnetic Anomaly (BMA). Without resolving these structures, our understanding of the evolution of the southern margin will be incomplete and limited. Under the auspices of the Inkaba yeAfrica framework, several geophysical datasets were acquired from 2004 to 2007, along two transects across the margin and its unique tectonic features. This research presents a tectonic model and crustal geometry, at the centre 100 km of the western transect. The model is derived from the joint interpretation of: surface geology, aeromagnetic data, nearby deep boreholes, teleseismic receiver functions, impedance spectroscopy measurements on borehole samples, near vertical reflection seismic data (NVR), shallow P- and S-wave velocity data, wide angle refraction data and magnetotelluric data.

  • Proposed Aggeneis-Paulputs 400 Kv Transmission Powerline and Substation Upgrades, Namaqua & Siyanda Districts, Northern Cape Province
    PALAEONTOLOGICAL HERITAGE ASSESSMENT: DESKTOP STUDY Proposed AggeneIs-Paulputs 400 kV TransmIssion PowerlIne and SubstatIon Upgrades, Namaqua & SIyanda DistrIcts, Northern Cape ProvInce John E. Almond PhD (Cantab.) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010, RSA [email protected] November 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Eskom is proposing to construct a new 400 kV transmission powerline of about 100 km length between the existing Aggeneis substation near Aggeneys to the existing Paulputs substation near Pofadder, Namaqua & Siyanda Districts, Northern Cape Province. Three route alignments (Corridors 1, 2 & 3) are currently under consideration, with a possible short deviation (3A) in the case of Corridor 3. The electrical infrastructure project will also entail upgrading the existing Aggeneis and Paulputs Substations with concomitant small increases in their footprints. The powerline and substation study area is underlain at depth by igneous and metamorphic basement rocks of Precambrian age as well as by a mantle of varied superficial deposits such as aeolian sands, gravels and alluvium of the Pleistocene to Recent Kalahari Group. In terms of palaeontological sensitivity outcrop areas of basement rocks are negligible while the overlying Late Caenozoic superficial deposits are generally of low to very low sensitivity. No highly-sensitive palaeontological sites or no-go areas have been identified within the 400 kV powerline and substation study area. The ancient Koa River Palaeovalley area near Aggenys, largely buried beneath younger cover sands (Fig. 1), may feature important Tertiary fossils at depth but these are very unlikely to be directly impacted by the shallow excavations envisaged for the present electrical infrastructure project.
