- Description
- The Klipriviersberg Group is a small continental flood-type tholeiitic suite forming the basal unit of the Ventersdorp Supergroup, an undeformed late-Archaean supracrustal sequence covering 200000 km2 in the SW part of the Kaapvaal Craton. From the base up, the Klipriviersberg Group consists of the Westonaria, Alberton, Orkney, Jeannette, Loraine, and Edenville formations, with a maximum combined thickness of 1–8 km. Samples were obtained from several borehole cores in the Klerksdorp goldfield close to the type area of the Klipriviersberg Group.
