After two weeks of measuring and describing the rocks for each of our sections we have finally finished our fieldwork. Yesterday at New Wapadsberg Pass we finished Tara’s project and collected all the necessary samples. After lunch we drove back to Tweefontein to collect samples for my project and to go through the section to make sure we had written down everything correctly. This morning we returned to Tweefontein to do the same for Dan’s section. Thanks to cores that had already been taken for paleo-magnetism testing there were not many samples left to be taken, so we finished before noon and took a few paleo-current measurements before we returned to Ganora for lunch and some rest before our big drive back to Cape Town on Saturday. A week from today we’ll be back at Colby!
Looking for trough crossbeds which indicate paleo-current
