Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Areas of significant outcrops of the Burgersdorp Formation. (A) Map of South Africa showing the extent of the Burgersdorp facies and wider Beaufort Group along with the positioning of (B), the southern Burgersdorp facies and (C), the northern Burgersdorp facies. Site 1, Avilion and Thala farms west of the town of Sterkstroom, localities for specimen BP/1/5538 (holotype of Guttigomphus avilionis), along with BP/1/5540, a complete skull in occlusion referred to Cricodon cf. C. metabolus, and the recently described Impidens hancoxi. Site 2, Aliwal North, locality of the holotype specimen of Trirachodon kannemeyeri (Seeley, 1895a). Site 3, Lady Frere, locality of the holotype specimen of Trirachodon berryi (Seeley, 1895a). Site 4, Langberg, Paul Roux district, locality of the holotype of Langbergia modisei (Abdala, Hancox & Neveling, 2005). The Burgersdorp outcrop is at its thickest in the area between Lady Frere (Cacadu) and Queenstown (Komani) where it reaches over 600 m. The unit then thins gradually extending from this area to a thickness of just 150–200 m in the area between Aliwal North and Burgersdorp.
