dc.description.abstract |
Both the marine and riverine deposits lie unconformably on the rocks of the Precambrian Gariep Group. The succession of the latter within the area studied is briefly described |
en_US |
dc.description.abstract |
The adjacent marine deposits, which form a raised beach complex on the coast, are described and the relationship between these marine and riverine deposits is examined |
en_US |
dc.description.abstract |
It is concluded that the marine deposits are considerably younger than the riverine deposits, which had previously been considered virtually contemporaneous. It is thought that the marine beaches range from Mid- to Late-Pleistocene, while the riverine deposits are possibly? Plio- Pleistocene to Early Pleistocene in age |
