Description
Summary:A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Science (Geology), for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy,University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg,1979 === This study is concerned with the geological history and porphyry- type copper molybdenum of the southeastern Richtersveld Province, in southern South West Africa. An area of approximately 300 km2 centred on the Haib copper prospect, was mapped at a scale of 1:10 000 and subsequently reduced. Observations of facies changes, textural changes, structural and other geological features were recorded and processed. Field work was followed by petrological and geochemical investigations.
