IV.—On the Correlation of the Palæozoic Rocks of South Africa

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

The ancient rocks of Prieska are extensively developed in Griqualand West, where they build up the elevated Campbell Rand plateau and the lofty ranges of the Langebergen Mountains situated to the west of the Orange River Colony. The order of succession, which is much disguised by faulting and folding, has been described in great detail by Mr. G. W. Stow, whose descriptions render it evident that the rocks of these regions resemble the older strata which extend over such vast areas in the Transvaal.
