A NOTE ON THE STRUCTURE OF THE LATE ARCHEAN PONGOLA SEQUENCE IN THE SIGWE HILLS AREA, SOUTHEASTERN SWAZILAND - EVIDENCE FROM A ROAD CUTTING

The structural history of the Late Archaean Pongola Sequence in southe rn Swaziland is poorly documented. Detailed mapping of an outcrop of t he poorly exposed Upper Mozaan (?) volcanosediments on Sigwe Hill has revealed the presence of northerly-verging bedding-parallel faults and low-angle normal faults that duplicate the steeper dipping local stra tigraphy. The faults deform a moderate north-northeast dipping foliati on and are cut by late east-west-striking sinistral normal faults. The complexity of this outcrop highlights the need for further detailed s tudies in the region.
