The record of sedimentation, volcanism and continental breakup in the Lebombo Mountains and the Kruger National Park where Karoo sediments and volcanics are beautifully exposed in river sections. These provide evidence of the earliest break-up of the Gondwana continent in the form of dyke swarms and faults. This field trip will require short walks to choice geosites in the company of an armed ranger and expert guides. The inextricable link between the abiotic and biotic (earth /life link) is better revealed in Kruger than perhaps anywhere else in South Africa.
