  • Phase 1 Palaeontological Impact Assessment of 2 Quarries and 6 Borrow Pits, Between Willowvale and Dwesa, EC Province
    Phase 1 Palaeontological Impact Assessment of 2 Quarries and 6 Borrow Pits, between Willowvale and Dwesa, EC Province. Report prepared for: CCS Environmental Consultants. Dr Lloyd Rossouw PO Box 38806 Langenhovenpark 9330 Executive Summary A Phase 1 Palaeontological Impact Assessment was carried out at a two quarries and six borrow pit sites between Willowvale and Dwesa in the Eastern Cape. Quarry 1 and 2 are exclusively doleritic and therefore not palaeontologically significant. Borrow Pit 1 and 3 are located in Adelaide Subgroup strata, while an intrusive dolerite outcrop (dyke) and Adelaide Subgroup metasediments are represented at Borrow Pit 2. Borrow Pits 4, 5 and 6 are located in older Ecca Group strata. No fossils or trace fossils were located near or in the vicinity of the borrow pits during the baseline survey. The survey of exposed strata has indicated no evidence for potential palaeontological impact. There is no indication for the accumulation and preservation of intact fossil material within the Quaternary sediments (topsoils) covering the underlying sedimentary rocks. 2 Introduction At the request of Control Civil Services, a Palaeontological Impact Assessment was carried out along designated areas between Willowvale and Dwesa in the Eastern Cape with the aim to investigate six borrow pit localities and two quarries that will be utilized to maintain and rehabilitate the gravel road infrastructure in the region. The survey is required as a prerequisite for new development in terms of the National Environmental Management Act and is also called for in terms of the National Heritage Resources Act 25 of 1999. In terms of Section 38 of the National Heritage Resources Act 25 of 1999 the survey is required as a prerequisite for any development which will change the character of a site exceeding 5 000 m2 in extent.

  • Clippety Clop), Kwelera, East London, Great Kei Municipality, Eastern Cape
    PALAEONTOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT: COMBINED FIELD ASSESSMENT AND DESKTOP STUDY Proposed development of Portion 3 of Farm 695 (Clippety Clop), Kwelera, East London, Great Kei Municipality, Eastern Cape. JOHN E. ALMOND (PhD, Cantab) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, CAPE TOWN 8010, RSA. [email protected] October 2011 1. SUMMARY The proposed holiday housing development on Portion 3 of Farm 695 (Clippety Clop), Kwelera, East London, is situated on the northern banks of the tidal Kwelera River, some 20 km northeast of East London, Eastern Cape. The development footprint is largely underlain by Late Permian continental sediments of the Adelaide Subgroup (Lower Beaufort Group, c. 253-251 million years old). These rocks are overlain by Early Triassic sandstones of the Katberg Formation (Tarkastad Subgroup) that build the cliffs and higher ground to the northeast. South of the river the Beaufort Group sediments are intruded and baked by Early Jurassic igneous intrusions of the Karoo Dolerite Suite. The Balfour Formation fluvial sediments are potentially fossiliferous, having yielded elsewhere a wide range of terrestrial vertebrates (bones and teeth of pareiasaurs, therapsids, amphibians et al.), bivalves, trace fossils and vascular plants. The overall impact of this project on local palaeontological heritage is likely to be very minor, however, because the potentially fossiliferous Beaufort Group sediments here are (a) deeply weathered, (b) sparsely fossiliferous, (c) have probably been extensively baked by nearby dolerite intrusions, and (d) are mostly covered with a thick (> 3m) mantle of fossil-poor alluvium. No fossils were observed within good exposures of the Balfour Formation rocks at the coast and in excellent roadcuts inland.

A dark period in our history which then marked fateful moments of disasters for our nation as people lost their lives fi ghting a war that wasn’t theirs. Together with the University of Fort Hare and Umhlobo Wenene FM, our fi rst SEK Mqhayi Language Conference we held resolved that we must promote isiXhosa as a national language and establish both an Institute and a Literature Museum. This is why in our Communication Strategy there is strong emphasis on using community radio; and isiXhosa as the fi rst choice medium of talking to our people. This afternoon, manene nani manenekazi, when I look at the plight and state of our beloved District, I can’t help but liken the period that we are in as that of ukuzika kwenqanawe ethwele amathemba abantu bakuthi.
