INTRODUCTION In the past worthwhile “signature events” brought fame and fortune to countries, provinces and cities all over the world. Modern times with its competition on all fronts and increasing entertainment options make it very difficult to find a place in the sun for any new activity, and it is not easy to create such events without simply copying another event. Our aim was to find an event that would stand out and live up to the challenge of becoming a Signature event for Mpumalanga. This presentation tells you more. 2. THE SABIE 109TT This will be an event based on international proven results that will, combined with local vision and drive, create a Signature event for Mpumalanga. Chances are that it will become one of the best and most exciting South African Sporting events, ever! This event will be based on a world-renowned motorcycle race, held annually for more than a century on the Isle of Man. 3. THE ISLE OF MAN TT The Isle of Man TT is a race for motorcycles that has been running since 1907.

  • U–Pb Zircon (SHRIMP) Ages for the Lebombo Rhyolites, South Africa

Printed in Great Britain. 2000) and the ages corroborate and further strengthen the SPECIAL chronology of the Lebombo stratigraphy. The rapid eruption of the Karoo succession is thought to have been responsible for trigger- U–Pb zircon (SHRIMP) ing the early Toarcian extinction event (Hesselbo et al. 2000). Geological setting. The Karoo Supergroup succession along the ages for the Lebombo Lebombo monocline is highlighted in Figure 1. The oldest phase of Karoo volcanism is marked by the Mashikiri nephelinites, rhyolites, South Africa: which unconformably overlie Jurassic Clarens Formation sand- stones (Fig. 2). The nephelinites have been dated at 182.1 Æ refining the duration of 1.6 Ma (40Ar/39Ar plateau age; Duncan et al. 1997) and form a lava succession up to 170 m thick (Bristow 1984). These rocks Karoo volcanism are confined to the northern part of the Lebombo rift and are absent along the central and southern sections. The nephelinites T. R. RILEY1,I.L.MILLAR2, are conformably overlain by picrites and picritic basalts of the 3 1 Letaba Formation, although in the southern Lebombo the picrites M. K. WATKEYS ,M.L.CURTIS, directly overlie the Clarens Formation. The picrites overlap in 1 3 P. T. LEAT , M. B. KLAUSEN & age (182.7 Æ 0.8 Ma; Duncan et al. 1997) with the Mashikiri C. M. FANNING4 nephelinites and are believed to form a succession up to 4 km in thickness. 1British Antarctic Survey, High Cross, Madingley Road, The Letaba Formation picrites are in turn overlain by a major Cambridge, CB3 0ET, UK (e-mail: [email protected]) succession (4–5 km thick) of low-MgO basalts, termed the Sabie 2British Antarctic Survey c/o NERC Isotope Geosciences River Basalt Formation (Cleverly & Bristow 1979).
