- Description
- Volcanic rocks are found associated with several of the late Mesozoic basins of southern South Africa. Bentonites are known from Plettenberg Bay and, according to an unconfirmed report, they are also found in the Worcester Basin, while vitric tuffs have been recorded from east of Oudtshoorn. The most extensive occurrences, however, are those of the Suurberg Group, which crops out sporadically around the margins of the Algoa Basin.
