  • Groundwater Recharge Assessment in the Upper Limpopo River Basin: a Case Study in Ramotswa Dolomitic Aquifer
    Groundwater Recharge Assessment in the Upper Limpopo River Basin: A Case Study in Ramotswa Dolomitic Aquifer Submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Hydrogeology Submitted by: Simamkele Siyambonga Baqa Student number: 1098513 Supervisors: Dr. Karen Villholth (IWMI) Prof. Tamiru Abiye (Wits) July 2017 in Johannesburg Groundwater Recharge Assessment in the upper Limpopo River Basin: A case study in Ramotswa Dolomitic Aquifer Declaration I Simamkele Siyambonga Baqa declare that Groundwater Recharge Assessment in the upper Limpopo River Basin with a case study in Ramotswa Dolomitic Aquifer is my own investigation and covers no section copied in whole or in part from any source unless it is clearly acknowledged in quotation marks and with detailed, complete and precise referencing. Further, the report has not been submitted before for any degree or examination at any university. …………………………………….. (Signature) ………………… (Date) I Abstract Hydrogeological research was undertaken in the transboundary Ramotswa dolomitic aquifer to provide understanding and quantification of the processes governing recharge mechanism and rates, in order to promote efficient and sustainable groundwater resource utilization and development, as well as to improve the Ramotswa transboundary aquifer management. Hydrochemical and tracer approaches were utilized to evaluate the processes governing the recharge mechanism while the chloride mass balance approach was further applied to assess groundwater recharge rates. Results indicated that all groundwater samples contained detectable amounts of tritium highlighting the renewability of the transboundary Ramotswa aquifer resources. Two distinct water types were characterised: sub-modern waters approximately recharge prior to the 1950s and a mixture of modern and sub-modern waters of recently recharge rainfall indicative of active recharge in the area through intensive rainfall.

  • North-West Province
    © Lonely Planet Publications 509 North-West Province From safaris to slots, the pursuit of pleasure is paramount in the North-West Province. And with the top three reasons to visit less than a six-hour drive from Johannesburg, this region is more than fun. It’s convenient. Gambling is the name of the game here, although not always in the traditional sense. Place your luck in a knowledgeable ranger’s hands at Madikwe Game Reserve and bet on how many lions he’ll spot on the sunrise wildlife drive. You have to stay to play at this exclusive reserve on the edge of the Kalahari, and the lodges here will be a splurge for many. But for that once-in-a-lifetime, romantic Out of Africa–style safari experience, South Africa’s fourth-largest reserve can’t be beat. If you’d rather spot the Big Five without professional help, do a self-drive safari in Pi- lanesberg National Park. The most accessible park in the country is cheaper than Madikwe, and still has 7000 animals packed into its extinct volcano confines. Plus it’s less than three hours’ drive from Jo’burg. When you’ve had your fill betting on finding rhino, switch to cards at the opulent Sun City casino complex down the road. The final component of the province’s big attraction trifecta is the southern hemisphere’s answer to Las Vegas: a shame- lessly gaudy, unabashedly kitsch and downright delicious place to pass an afternoon. Madikwe, Pilanesberg and Sun City may be the North-West Province’s heavyweight at- tractions, but there are more here than the province’s ‘Big Three’.
