Explanation of the geological map of the country east of Kariba

- Description: The area covers part of the western end of the Zambezi Metamorphic Belt as it is known in Rhodesia. Most of the rocks are paragneisses of various ages that have suffered a long and complex history which has taken them into the highest facies of metamorphism and into the realm of granitization. Only the Karoo sediments of the Zambezi Valley are unaffected by these metamorphic events. From the scanty geochronological results obtainable from the north of Rhodesia, the history of this area started more than 2 500 million years ago. In the east and south-east of the mapped area are a group of highly migmatized granitic gneisses which represent a continuation westwards of similar rocks found in the area described in Bulletin 51 by Wiles (1961}. These Urungwe Paragneisses are regarded as forrning the basement on which all other rocks in the area lie, although their relationship with the Basement Complex is unknown. Climatically Kariba is hot and humid. Mean summer temperatures average 30°C (86°F), with temperatures in October that often exceed 40°C (100°F). Away from the Lake the humidity decreases and the increased altitudes above the Escarpment have a cooling effect. The township's mean annual rainfall is 665 millimetres (26,2 inches), most of which falls in the months between November and February. Basically. the area is well timbered but population pressures in the tribal areas, and depredation by elephants elsewhere, have made serious inroads upon the natural vegetation. The gneissic terrain above the Escarpment is characterized by mufuti trees (Brachystegia boehmiz). The baobab (Adansonia digitata) is common in the larger river valleys and in the low-lying area surrounding the lake shore where it occurs together with mopane (Colophospermum mopane) and thick jessie bush. In the river valleys, trees typical of the Zambezi Valley are common and include the tamarind (Tamarindus indica), mumvey (Kigelia africana) and Steculia species. Buffalo beans (Mucuma coriacea) are not uncommon in grassy river-beds. Physiographically, the area can be subdivided into three distinct regions, all of which have a marked geological control. They are- (1) The fault-lined Gwembe trough which has subsequently been inundated by the waters of Lake Kariba to an average altitude of 487 metres (1 600 feet) above sea level since the completion of the dam across the upstream entrance to the Kariba Gorge in 1960. The fiat land that now forms part of the lake shore is underlain by sediments of Karoo age and these, in the mapped area, occupy the Charara and Gachegache Basins, that lie to the north and south respectively of the Msango Range. These fiat-lying areas give way sharply to the gneissic terrain of the Zambezi Metamorphic Belt along the fault-lined Zambezi Escarpment. (2) The northern boundary of the area and the Msango Range are underlain by metasediments of the Makuti Group. The relief is strongly influenced by the regional geological structure of these complexly folded rocks with resistant meta-arkose and quartzite forming the sharp ridges and metapelites occupying the valleys. The ridges and valleys trend eastwards in the Msango Range, but along the northern boundary they trend north-westwards. (3) The linear topographic features of the Makuti Group terrain give way southwards to the older gneisses along an abrupt scarp edge, the base of which is marked by the Tsororo River. This terrain of gneisses is very rugged and highly dissected above the Zambezi Escarpment until it flattens out, at about 900 metres (2 950 feet) above sea level, into the Urungwe Tribal Trust Lands. In the rugged country above the Escarpment, granulites of the Piriwiri Group stand out above the gneisses as steep-sided conical bills. The country rises in a series of fault-lined steps to its highest point, at Nyamangwe trigonometrical beacon, which stands at 1 336 metres (4 382 feet) above sea level.

- Description: The interpretation of the band neutrophil count on manual differential counts performed amongst microscopists can vary greatly. The band neutrophil is an immature granulocyte, maturing towards a segmented neutrophil. There are varying degrees of misconception of the band neutrophil identification, as the band neutrophil closely resembles the maturing segmented neutrophil. Although there are guidelines for the identification of band neutrophils, many laboratories incorporate their own “standard” as to what a band neutrophil should look like. Even when a standard exists for the identification of band neutrophils, many microscopists still have difficulty identifying these cells, making it difficult to accurately perform, interpret and report a manual differential count. Due to the controversy it is thus necessary to identify whether the problem lies with the identification of the band neutrophil itself, or the individual microscopist’s perception of differentiation between the band neutrophil and a maturing segmented neutrophil. The purpose of this study was to establish the accuracy by which microscopists distinguish band neutrophils from mature segmented neutrophils, the extent of discrepancies in the band neutrophil count amongst microscopists, to establish whether microscopists required re-training and to establish meaningful recommendations for microscopists to aid in the accurate identification of band neutrophils. The researcher thus made use of a self-administered picture diagram, distributed among microscopists to assess the accuracy of the band neutrophil counts prior to training. Participants counted an average of 61.47% neutrophils and 38.53% band neutrophils. Coefficient of variation (CV) for neutrophils and band neutrophils were calculated and yielded a CV of 22.48 and 35.87 respectively. Due to the high CV calculated, suggesting a greater level of dispersion around the mean, the researcher investigated individual responses from the picture-diagram. With the findings of the individual picture-diagram results, the researcher developed an impression that there was a large variation in counts for both neutrophils and band cells. Training was then given to participants arranged by the researcher, for accurate band neutrophil identification. Following training a second survey was conducted in order to assess the variation in counts among microscopists. 1 The peripheral blood smear was then provided and used to perform a manual differential count by conventional light microscopy, in order to compare results. Similarly, results obtained by the microscopists was compared to the verified manual differential count performed by a Haematologist; to improve the accuracy of results reported routinely. With the findings of the individual manual differential count results the researcher observed, that there was indeed a discrepancy in the manual differential counts performed by microscopists.

- Description: The Northern Areas of Port Elizabeth are mostly comprised of the so called “Coloured” community and is vibrant in tradition and musical activities. Community music in the form of marching bands, brigade bands, wind bands and brass bands form a central part of the music activities in this area. The non-availability of music education in schools combined with the multitude of social challenges creates a cultural and moral vacuum. Children are not exposed to the finer arts and music in particular and without these bands and groups probably never will. This study will explore five community bands/groups and the role they play in the lives of people and especially the children and the youth. The impact and influence music has on the social upliftment of under-privileged children in this area has never been studied. The study shows the big impact these bands/groups have on the children and the communities they serve and highlights the dedication and good work of those band managers working with these groups. The study concludes with a proposal that an art/music centre be established in the Northern Areas of Port Elizabeth.

- Description: This work presents a study of high-spin states in the nucleus ¹⁹⁶Tl via γ-spectroscopy. ¹⁹⁶Tl was produced via the ¹⁹⁷Au(⁴He,5n) ¹⁹⁶Tl reaction at a beam energy of 63 MeV. The γ-γ coincidence measurements were performed using the AFRODITE γ-spectrometer array at iThemba LABS. The previous level scheme of ¹⁹⁶Tl has been extended up to an excitation of 4071 keV including 24 new γ-ray transitions. The spin and parity assignment to levels was made from the directional correlation of oriented nuclei (DCO) and linear polarization anisotropy ratios. An analysis of the B(M1)/B(E2) ratios was found to be consistent with the configuration of πh₉/₂♁vi₁₃/₂ for the ground state band. Although no chiral band was found in ¹⁹⁶TI and ¹⁹⁸TI.
