Abstract

Presents an analysis of the various greenstone belts in the north and northeastern parts of the Kaapvaal Craton in South Africa, which were generally regarded to represent time equivalent of the early Archaean Barberton Belt. Findings that suggest the age data for the various greenstone belts of the craton were generally scare and imprecise; How single zircons were dated using a felsic metavolcanic rock of the Rubbervale Formation in the Murchison Greenstone Belt.
