6 the Environments Associated with the Proposed Alternative Sites
6 THE ENVIRONMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPOSED ALTERNATIVE SITES The purpose of this section is to describe the environments associated with the proposed alternative sites. The information contained herein was extracted from the relevant specialist studies. Please refer to Section 3.5 for a list of all the relevant specialists and their fields of expertise and to Appendix E for the original specialist reports. 6.1 Brazil Site 6.1.1 Physical (a) Location The Brazil site is situated in the Kleinzee / Nolloth region of the Northern Cape, within the jurisdiction of the Nama-Khoi Municipality ( Figure 16). The site has the following co-ordinates: 29°48’51.40’’S and 17°4’42.21’’E. The Brazil site is situated approximately 500 km north of Cape Town and 100 km west-southwest of Springbok. Kleinzee is located 15 km north, Koiingnaas is 90 km south and Kamieskroon is located 90 km southeast of the Brazil site. Figure 16: Location of the proposed Brazil site in relation to the surrounding areas (Bulman, 2007) Nuclear 1 EIA: Final Scoping Report Eskom Holdings Limited 6-1 Issue 1.0 / July 2008 (b) Topography The topography in the Brazil region is largely flat, with only a gentle slope down to the coast. The coast is composed of both sandy and rocky shores. The topography is characterised by a small fore-dune complex immediately adjacent to the coast with the highest elevation of approximately nine mamsl. Further inland the general elevation depresses to about five mamsl in the middle of the study area and then gradually rises towards the east. -

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. -

It comprises the three local municipalities of Gamagara, Ga- Segonyana and Joe Morolong, and 186 towns and settlements, of which the majority (80%) are villages. The boundaries of this district were demarcated in 2006 to include the once north-western part of Joe Morolong and Olifantshoek, along with its surrounds, into the Gamagara Local Municipality. It has an established rail network from Sishen South and between Black Rock and Dibeng. It is characterised by a mixture of land uses, of which agriculture and mining are dominant. The district holds potential as a viable tourist destination and has numerous growth opportunities in the industrial sector.

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. -

Rooifontein Bulk Water Supply on the Remainder of Leliefontein 614, Kamiesberg Municipality, Northern Cape
1 PALAEONTOLOGICAL HERITAGE COMMENT: ROOIFONTEIN BULK WATER SUPPLY ON THE REMAINDER OF LELIEFONTEIN 614, 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 the Remainder of Leliefontein 614 near Rooifontein, Namaqualand klipkoppe region of the Northern Cape, is considered to be LOW. This is because the study area is underlain by unfossiliferous metamorphic basement rocks (granite-gneisses etc) and / or mantled by superficial sediments of low palaeontological sensitivity (e.g. alluvium of the Buffelsrivier), while the development footprint is very small. 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. The archaeologist carrying out the field assessment of the study area should report to SAHRA any substantial unmapped areas of alluvial gravels or well-consolidated finer alluvial sediments encountered, since these might contain fossil bones and teeth of mammals. 1. PROJECT OUTLINE The proposed Bulk Water Supply System development on the Remainder of Leliefontein 614 near Rooifontein, 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 190 kl steel panel reservoir; • Installation of approximately 6km of pipelines; • Construction of a Water Treatment Works (desalination plant) and associated evaporation ponds (waste brine). 2.
