| In the section on glacial sediments, Figure G12 takes half a page to show a braided river emanating from a glacier terminus that is not even clearly visible in the picture. These conglomerates are interpreted as braided river and alluvial fan-delta deposits and are not unlike the Witswatersrand Goldfields in South Africa. Areas 1, 2 and 3 are part of an ancient system of gold-bearing braided river channels, extending along the corridor. |
