Aims and scientific objectives

Knowledge creation:

  • Reconstruct depositional history of the Karoo Basin
  • Unravel the deep structure of the Karoo Basin
  • Effect and distribution of dolerite intrusions

Capacity building:

  • Equip South African postgraduate students
slide-10
SLIDE 10

Aims and scientific objectives

  • Better litho- and chronostratigraphic understanding (Ecca

Group)

  • Better biostratigraphic framework (Ecca Group)
  • Better magnetostratigraphic framework (Ecca Group)
  • Characterization of hydrogeological conditions (monitoring
  • f deep groundwater)
  • Study organic geochemistry

= insight into shale gas potential of the Ecca Group
